absurdium 

A chemical element theorized to be produced by the human body in a certain percentage of the population. The element is suspected to have a clear irreversible degenerative effect on the intellect. It is also a suspected contributor to the 'Bozone Layer' effect (please see Bozone Layer and bozone)

This element is not listed in the Periodic Table. It is illusive and has not yet been synthesized in the lab, and scientists suspect that they will never be able to. Naturally, there will never be a cure that reverses absurdium's effects.

Your idea has the trademark of absurdium.

This is the most banal thing I've heard. You must be on absurdium or something.

Did someone accidentally add few absurdium drops to your kool-aid this morning?

Man, I can smell the absurdium in your breath. It should be illegal for you to think.

reductape add absurdium 

The repeated patching up of a flimsy argument for a ridiculous proposition made by someone you’d think would be smarter.

Reductape is Latin for the process of repeatedly patching something until all you see is the patch and you can no longer see the thing being patched.

Absurdium is an isotope of Einsteinium (Es, atomic number 99) which when present in the brain of even the hugest genius renders them stupid.

Did you hear Trump’s latest claims that the election was rigged?
Yes. It was a case of reductape add absurdium.

absurdism 

Life is meaningless. Have a cup of coffee.

Albert Camus, one of the pioneers of absurdism, once said, "Should I kill myself or, have a cup of coffee?"

Absurdistan 

Your current locale/country when something completely ridiculous happens.

Here in Asburdistan, the State-boys pull over those who "speed" while ignoring those who hog the passing-lane, exhibiting their longest fingers.

absurdist 

Absurdist theater is a phrase coined by Martin Esslin, a theather critic who grouped together several playwrights who wrote in a similar fashion. Absurdist drama is a direct result of World War 2, and is about the way people felt after it. There are three types of Absurdism: Fatalism, Existentialism, and Hilarious. Fatalism is the type of theater Beckett wrote (Waiting for Godot, End Game), where man is trapped in life, even basic communication is cut off. Existentialism is that if there is no point, at least you can rationalize an existance, No Exit is an example of this. Hilarious is the type Ionesco wrote (The Lesson), based off the Neitzsche prinicpal that man invented laughter to keep sanity. The entire point of Absurdism is that there is no point to life on the surface, so there has to be some reason to live. It's an attempt to answer to the fundemental questions, why are we here? etc.

One might argue that Samuel Beckett, the author of Waiting fo Godot, is the best absurdist playwright, even though crictics hated it until a group of prison inmates did a production of it.

Reductio ad Absurdum 

A process of making something stupid because that is what Google says it is.

For Example: If you put “Reductio ad Absurdum” into Google Translate it detects the language as Latin, and translates it to English as: “Reductio ad Absurdum.”

Another Example: For years (through May 29, 2018 at least) if you ask Google "What does it mean to be an American?" it responds with this as the first answer (in a box even):

"It means that I can say "The Pledge of Allegiance" and that I can vote for the President, my county clerk, and the Mayor. But to me it means most of all to be free and to be proud that I live in the United States of America here in Wisconsin."

Dig deeper and you'll find it is written by an 10-year-old who, in addition to thinking that the U. S. is in Wisconsin, does not know that to be an American means she is free to NOT say the pledge and that she has 10 years to go before she can vote.

Thank you Google for establishing a 10-year-old as the #1 expert on what it means to be a patriot. Way to go.

If we're going to Make America Great Again we've got to stop all this Reductio ad Absurdum going on.
