I wish someone would slip me a roofie, but I guess that's irrelevent. Pay me no mind. I'm just babbling. :)

[FantasticBabblings]

I wouldn't mind if somebody slipped me a roofer either.

I've never held that belief regarding God (or god, depending on whatever yada yada blah blah blah). But I HAVE felt that way regarding reruns of Rhoda.

I believe these falacy videos of yours are in fact entertaining. Since I am entertained, I must enjoy quickies.

;-)

[FantasticBabblings]

Of course you enjoy quickies. It gives you more time to watch Rhoda.

After watching your fallacy videos the fallacies in question tend to stick in my head better than just reading about them on my own. Keep it up!

[FantasticBabblings]

Thanks for the encouragement.

Paradoxically and ironically (actually neither), this was relevant! Thanks, Phil!

The plot thickens, we find out that the person administering the 'salmon' in question to Mr Ayers, is one in a many long line of mistresses, for it seems he was quite a womanizer, and his departed wife's maiden name was, you guessed it Salmon, Not only could this be tales from beyond the grave, but also retribution from beyond the grave?
