reducktion 

Da disappointing lessening of permissions 'n' possibilities dat Daffy encountered when setting out to hunt grizzly bears.
Da infamous hot-tempered Warner-Brothers quacker may not have liked da "reducktion" in harvesting-allowances regarding da local bear population, but said large furry brown mammals would also have been less than thrilled if said hunter-freedom curtailing had NOT been in place, since they would then have had a far greater risk of a "reduction" in their expected lifespans!

Reductio al Gore 

Reductio al Gore is the argument tactic of dismissing all the science and evidence in support of man's contribution to climate change by invoking the name of Al Gore. It is a type of logical fallacy.
"I don't care that 97% of climate scientists support climate change because Al Gore makes money and I don't like Al Gore. Therefore, climate change is a hoax."

"Is that the best you can do? You don't have evidence, just a Reductio al Gore."

Shawshank Redumption

When one is pooping in a public bathroom, embarassed by ass noises, one waits for others to make noise to allow for loud ass explosions. Similar to Tim Robbins in "Shawshank Redemption" waiting for the thunder so his banging on the pipe would go unheard.
I had to wait for the other guy to flush to let my shawshank redumption rip.

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.
