Slothful Proof Bias

The cognitive error of accepting a convenient, low-effort piece of evidence as definitive proof, while ignoring the mountain of complex, contradictory, or difficult-to-obtain evidence. It’s the mental shortcut that prefers a simple, lazy answer over a complicated truth. This bias allows people to "prove" their point by pointing to a single, easily digestible factoid, a meme, or a headline, while dismissing nuanced studies or expert consensus as "too complicated."

Example: "He 'proved' vaccines were dangerous with one Facebook post about a friend's cousin, totally succumbing to Slothful Proof Bias."

smooth muscle

Similar to the Indonesian slang term "otot polos" with this same meaning, this tongue-in-cheek term referring to Deadpool's poor self-control, particularly in his tendency to swear and act impulsively. This phrase playfully implies that, like smooth muscle tissue, which operates involuntarily, Deadpool's mouth runs on autopilot, often leading to hilariously inappropriate outbursts.

I love how Deadpool is total smooth muscle—his swearing just pops out without a filter, making every scene even more entertaining!
