cartoon logic

where real life logic does not apply, like being able to survive fatal impacts

I was smashed in the head with an anvil but got up barely phased. Cartoon logic is a wonderful thing.

Cartoon Logic

AKA Cartoon Physics.

A law in cartoons that states that if something impossible would be amusing if it actually happened, then it will happen.

That's not the entire rule, either; see below.

The full definition of Cartoon Logic is as follows:

*Should the character be able to do this?

> Yes No

*Would it be funny if they couldn't?

> Yes No

*They can't do it.

*Should the character be able to do this?

Yes > No

*Would it be funny if they could?

> Yes No

*They can do it.

Cartoon logic

Logic based on fallacies that cannot be backed up by actual evidence. Like building a fire underwater, their logic is flawed and childish

“Hey did you know that I’ve gotten straight A’s throughout high school, so know I’m definitely going to get a scholarship”

Shut up you weirdo book worm. You have cartoon logic. No college wants a nerd who plays no sports.
