Ramble
I’m reminded of a thought: specifically of how you can always construct a good argument not to waste food or water or money. This seems to come from the fact that they are things needed by everyone, and that many do not have each of them in sufficient quantity.
There is another impossible counter-argument, this one in the area of film: any movie that was nominated for an Academy Award must necessarily be better than The Fountain, as The Fountain was not nominated for an Academy Award. And this breeds a non sequitur, as no movie is better than The Fountain.
Well, if The Black Dahlia was nominated for an Academy Award, you can just go “non, non, non, non sequitur,” all the way home.
