Razor vs. chicken.

Occams's Razor..

"All things being equal, the simplest solution tends to be the best one."

Oh how I love thee.

What a lovely thing to pop out into arguments as a last ditch effort.

It seems like there should be an alternate version which I am provisionally titling "Occam's rubber chicken."

"All things being equal, the funniest solution tends to be the best one."

This will be most useful as a hail mary when some ridiculous story of mine is heading south - I can invoke the power of Occam to back my ass up. It'll totally work.
