Occam's Razor
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
“I couldn't understand what Occam was talking about. It took him forever to explain anything.”
~ A scientist on Occam
“Occam's Razor doesn't care about black people.”
~ Another Scientist on Kanye West
“Can this man be Trusted with my throat exposed like that?”
Either (1) Occam’s Razor is a razor used by some famous guy named Occam, or (2) Occam’s Razor is the scientific principle that the simpler of two explanations is correct.
It follows that if (1) is true, then (1) is true. If (2) is true, then (1) is still true. Therefore Occam's Razor is a razor.
[edit] Previous editions of Occam's Razor
Though it is currently a razor (see above), Occam's Razor has taken many forms:
- The original Occam's Razor was invented in the late 19th century as the easiest way to shave. Using a single blade and unique strip of scented, soap-embedded foam, it dispensed with the need for both shaving cream and aftershave.
- Occam's Razor can be used to prove that the Virgin Mary is not really a virgin. Or, if she is, make her appear as if she isn't. (Ouch!)
- In the painting "Garden of Earthly Delights" by Hieronymus Bosch, Occam's Razor is the knife that protrudes from the ear. Originally Occam owned a really nice apartment in the hollow chick building but due to rising property prices he was forced to move across the street into the ear.
