How often do you use the 'Occam's razor' defence?

[hobbit.]

Especially when dealing some clever fucker that thinks itself to be 'educated'?

its a good debating school.

Never.
I couldn't possibly give any hint that I might be slightly more intelligent than I am perceived - that simply would not do!

Ma'am, that would not be possible.

Ma'am, that would not be possible.

I have a rep to maintain.

I resort to the "Occam's razor" defense quite often, but not in an intellectual sense, I have the dude's actual razor. Quite sharp for its age, and easy to clean the blood off.

What's the other guy carrying? I would never consider a razor for defense.

If he has a knife or a club, you've got a fair chance. Anybody's razor is a handicap in a gun fight.

As a defence, never. As a guidline to sorting through the bullshit, daily.

No Occam's razor. I can cut bullets out of the air with the one I got from the stash.

Wear a helmet in case a ciggy butt in the road sends you ass over tea kettle.

 

[LuceSol]

In ever use it. Most people will then unsuccessfully argue what me about what "simplest" constitutes as. Of course, there's no getting through to people like that.

It wouldn't matter. Most Americans can't even name the Vice President, what century the Civil War happened, or how many days there are in July. How the hell would they know what Occam's razor is?

 

[fgarvb1]

This is Texas.

Only a fool would bring a razor to a gunfight.
