Logic Problem...
« on: Dec 26th, 2005, 10:22pm » |
 Quote  Modify

Whenever 'Wutch' is in town, someone in the family dies.
'Wutch' is in town.
Therefore....
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. There has to be some logical conclusion other than the obvious one.

Go for Modus Tollens instead
If p, then q.
Not q.
Therefore, not p.

Wutcha talking about? Nobody died, yet.
But she is very, very sick. And that is very, very obvious.
Therefore.......

The question is why wutcha if you had a choice
to wutch or not? Seems intuitive or perhaps
counter intuitive depending on which side of
the wutch your on. Simple, huh.

Throw that bastard 'wutch' out of town, NOW, before somebody dies!
I don't know  , but I'll ponder on it awhile and see what my tiny pea brain comes up with.

The obvious conclusion is that you pissed off the Mob, and now they've hired Wutch to kill off ya family one by one... Call the FBI and see if there's any openings in witness protection.

She's been whacked.

ok, after 3 days of thinking about this (and I SERIOUSLY need a life!) I've come to the conclusion that Wutch is either an insurance agent/lawyer (for insurance payoff) or a guy that makes headstones.
Are you EVER gonna give us the answer?????????

For gods sake tell us the answer, after three days of reading this I am starting to think sanity is a myth; but then again I only got 7 in the nerd test.
