Logic

Logic, that is, rationality, is the sequential unfolding of Reality, resulting from the tension between noumenal Reality as it is in-itself and Appearance, finite Reality mediated by a Consciousness. This unfolding takes the form of a dialectical progression.

This Dialectic has three, distinct stages:

1. thesis ( the thesis is nothing else than the indeterminate, positive beginning of the dialectical process; the tension mentioned above results in a contradiction. The latter can only be overcome by transcending (opposing) the thesis. )
2. antithesis ( The antithesis is the positing of the sublation (determinate negation) of the thesis )
3. synthesis ( “divergent thinking”; here, the linear dialectical progression stops, and the contradiction which the thesis was in-itself becomes explicit. The thesis lets go of the contradictions in which it was caught up )

All Logical Patterns have their origin in this dialectical progression, and are either a Thesis, Antithesis or Synthesis.

The Logic-ality of Reality is the condition of the possibility of the existence of Patterns.

Sydney Logic

This is the logic used by The Sydney, usually something that doesn't make sense to other people, but does to The Sydney, or logic used by The Sydney when she is tired or just doesn't care.

"I'll drive first, I thought about it during class, and I realized that I didn't care." ~A real life example of Sydney Logic

Logic Day

A holiday celebrated annually on October 5th (Neil DeGrasse Tyson's birthday) that celebrates science, nature, and logic. You eat bacon (although it isn't required), enjoy science and nature, and give gifts related to those things. Let's all do it! Spread the word! # logicday

Every year my family celebrates Logic Day by visiting our local museum.

Flash train-logic

The concieved notion that you can accomplish anything, simply because it is required of you in that moment. Even if you have no background of doing this or there's been no setup for you being able to do this in the past.
Basically a lousy way to explain away a Deus Ex Machina.

As seen on the Flash:
The Flash somehow manages to get a train to vibrate at the same speed he is, so that the train goes through some rubble in the road.
Later:
Kid Flash: "How did you do that?"
Flash: "Because I had to."
Me, watching the show: That's some Flash train-logic right there!"

Logic

A story that is in existence for the story's sake in and of itself.

Person 1: But there's no logic or goodness to creatively making up a word and then applying a definition to it! That's just an anecdote.
Person 2: Well, Malcolm X read and memorized the entire dictionary in prison and I'm pretty sure

he saw stories in there. Is that logical? Does it

fucking matter what YOU consider to be logical? It mattered to a LOT of people what stories he saw as logical. Are you the authority Malcolm X

sought? Or do you just need to bring a little more humanity and understanding into your logic that might bring about better outcomes.

fairytale logic

Caring about building happiness in the moment, a fairytale story, rather than anything in the future--where the building could lead to a fairytale tragedy or a fairytale happy ending--and since the logic used to get to the result was to build a fairytale, the type of ending doesn't matter.

Griffin: I worked my ass off to graduate from college in biology.

Sam: How was it?

Griffin: I used fairytale logic. If I didn't get the degree, that's life, since I made every moment I lived into a fairytale as best I could. And look what happened. I earned the degree, so it was a happy ending. But it was fun!

Inkpadian logic

Type of “logic” where reason and rationalism is suspended and philosophy is avoided. Circular reasoning is one of its significant principles and the followers often follow the view that “If you do not talk to me about what I want to talk about, you will be blocked” which some have pointed out as philosophical profound.

Jacob: I have wrote a book where it claims that I am the owner of Mars in it.

Mark: But what's your evidence for that?

Jacob: My book is the evidence.

Mark: The hell is this Inkpadian logic?
