coup de grace

To achieve complete, argumental dominance in it's most pure form. Once a coup de grace is tactfully executed, the executing individual terminates/wins said argument. If performed... No can defense.

Any of the following may be used:

It's science...
Except when it's not...
Well.. Not on this earth. Respectively.

NOTE: Coup de graces may not be utilized in tandum and/or against one another in the same argument.
Dave: Not all fruits have seeds..
Nakama: Yes they do.
Dave: No they don't.
Nakama: Yes they do.. It's science.

Argument terminated.

NOTE: Nakama wins argument via sweet delivery of a coup de grace.
