Reductio Ad Absurdum

Reductio Ad Absurdum (Latin for "reduction to absurdity") is a logical argument that refutes a statement by proving that the premise would lead to a logically absurd and ridiculous conclusion.

Another great phrase to use against flat-earthers and other conspiracy nutjobs alike.
Flat-earther: THE EARTH IS FLAT!!!!

Me, an intellectual: Oh yeah, then explain how nobody has ever fallen off the edge of the earth. Reductio Ad Absurdum.

Aberdeen

The only location in the UK where smoking cannabis is legal. This is due to the culture of a small, isolated, and unnamed civilization that lived there from the Roman conquest of England until 1746, when England took back Scotland during the Austrian succession. This group was mixed Celtic and Norse, and used to be a minority among the Celtics all over the isles until the Romans took over, and they fled to the mountains of the north. after Scotland fell in 1746, some fled north to Iceland and others went west to the new world, but this mostly undocumented civilization is mostly extinct. Their civilization specifically has to due with Aberdeen because many artifacts of this minority was found within Aberdeen. Today, they're only a small minority in far northern scotland and other celtic and norse countries, occasionally a few along canada and the USA's east coast

Conserv-absurd

A Conserv-absurd is an argument that provides poor reasoning in support of its conclusion. Conserv-absurds differ from other bad arguments in that right-wing people find these psychologically persuasive, and therefore mistakenly believe its conclusion to be true even though it’s false.

Examples of “If P then Q” Conserv-absurds:
“If you don’t support the war, you don’t support the troops.”
“If we fight them over there, we won’t have to fight them here.”

Frequently such illogical sound bites are made into bumper stickers, and the false information will be distributed via email (to catapult the propapoop). More recently this trend has increased among social conservatives.

For example, infidelity is okay IF:
1. You don’t do it in your office. If you have extramarital sex elsewhere like an airport restroom or another country, then it’s okay, even when done at the taxpayer’s or company’s expense.
2. There is reconciliation with your spouse, no matter how much you really hate each other. Especially when there are kids, no matter how much you fight in front of them. It’s better to pretend you have "family values" than to have family well-being.
3. You ask forgiveness, though you don’t regret cheating--just getting busted. It has nothing to do with merit, but rather the appearance of repentance.
4. You do it because you’re fed up with Obama.

Antonym - constipational
There they go again trying to blame everything on the “liberal media.” But Conserv-absurds are the real reason the country is going down the toilet!
