Ockham's Rogaine is a way of calling "foul" on a complex, fantastical claim about almost anything. It is the opposite of Ockham’s razor, William of Ockham's classic formula. Ockham’s razor says that among competing explanations, we should prefer the simplest one. A razor cuts away excess "hair" and simplifies loopy reasoning. Rogaine, figuratively, grows it and creates a long, unruly line of thinking.
That guy at the bus station must have poured on a lot of Ockham's Rogaine to get an alien abduction, Pope Francis and the Czech lottery, all in the same conspiracy.
