pub logic 

A warped method of reasoning and debate technique encountered primarily in the pub, whereby common sense and prior knowledge are overused at the expense of actual evidence and synopticity, caused mainly by alcohol intoxication. Resultant ideas, theories and conclusions range from the ridiculous to the surprisingly ingenious.
Tom: "Why is the music playing from the jukebox so crap?"
Dick: "I reckon they deliberately play crap songs, in order to make you pay to put on decent songs. Makes sense, right?"
Harry: "That's a dodgy bit of pub logic!"

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
