Megalogical

1. the act of drastically over thinking something followed by freaking out

2. having a mental capacity to cover every angle like the supervillain from ''NEMESIS''

1.

girl: should i call him? no he'll think i'm needy but if i don't hell forget me or think i'm rude ZOMG!!!! this is tottallly FUBAR

friend: STFU you being too megalogical

2. you think you captured him... hes been plotting this from the beginning

omegalogical

the opposite of alphabetical order; instead of listing things from A to Z, list them from Z to A.

My last name starts with a Z, so i am always called last during roll call, unless the teacher decides to read the list in omegalogical order in which case i am called first.

Magilogical

1. First used by Robert Brochhausen as a nonsensical phrase possibly to abstractly describe his creative state of mind. It is also believed to be used as an alternative for all the positive adjectives that have already been used like fantastic or dazzling.

2. A paradoxal phrase of the same origin as stated above. A combination of the words magic and logical/illogical that describes the creator's whimsical thought process that combines surreal logic and all-too-true realizations.

Rob: "Moving is such a magilogical experience. While it's possible to walk from one end of a room to the other, you also can never reach that end without first passing through the infinite number of halfway points between you and the other side."

Alex: "... okay."

Metalogical Paradigm Theory

A theory about the different foundational stances one can take toward logic itself. Key metalogical paradigms include: formalism (logic is a game with symbols), logicism (math is reducible to logic), intuitionism (logic is grounded in mental construction), and pragmatism (logic is a tool for successful action). Choosing a metalogical paradigm determines what you believe logic is about and what it can ultimately tell us about reality.

Metalogical Paradigm Theory Example: A Formalist and an Intuitionist debating the validity of a proof by contradiction are operating from different Metalogical Paradigms. The Formalist says, "The symbols allow it, so it's valid." The Intuitionist says, "You haven't constructed the object, so it's meaningless." They disagree on the nature of truth, not just the proof.

Metalogical Biases

Prejudices that operate at the level of metalogic—the study of the properties of logical systems themselves (like consistency, completeness, soundness). A metalogical bias might be an irrational attachment to classical logic as the "One True Logic," rejecting non-classical systems (like paraconsistent logic that tolerates contradiction) because they feel wrong or threatening, not because they are unsound for certain problems.

Metalogical Biases Example: A mathematician has a metalogical bias for completeness. They deeply distrust any proposed logical system that is proven to be inherently incomplete (like Gödel showed for arithmetic), viewing it as "broken," even if it's incredibly useful for computer science or legal reasoning where paradoxes must be managed.

Metalogical Metabiases

Biases in how we think about metalogical choices and the very criteria we use to judge logical systems. It's bias two levels up. For example, valuing aesthetic elegance or psychological comfort over practical utility when deciding which logical framework to adopt for describing the world. It's the irrational driver behind your rational choice of rationality tools.

Metalogical Metabiases Example: A physicist prefers string theory over loop quantum gravity not due to empirical data (there is none), but because of a Metalogical Metabias: they find its mathematical beauty and conceptual unity more compelling. The bias is in the meta-criterion ("beauty") used to choose between competing metalogical frameworks for quantum gravity.
