Tautology Club Defination
February 17, 2010 | Posted by Admin Humorous Tautologies Inspired, in part, by today’s XKCD. Have you ever asserted that something is a tautology (when it’s not), in order to make a funny? For example: Claiming that ‘Smelly Kitten’ is a tautology, implying that all
Tautology (rhetoric), repetition of meaning, using dissimilar words to say the same thing twice, especially where the additional words fail to provide additional clarity and meaning.
A rhetorical tautology can also be defined as a series of statements that comprise an argument, whereby the statements are constructed in such a way that the truth of the propositions are guaranteed or that the truth of the propositions cannot be disputed by defining a term in terms of another self referentially. Consequently the statement conveys no useful information regardless of its length or complexity making it unfalsifiable. It is a way of formulating a description such that it masquerades as an explanation when the real reason for the phenomena cannot be independently derived. A rhetorical tautology should not be confused with a tautology in propositional logic, since the inherent meanings and subsequent conclusions in rhetorical and logical tautologies are very different.
A mother and writer, and I know I repeat myself a lot. In fact, I often I will make recordings of my state will not be forced to engage in a tautology.
Sure, it seems to me to qualify for the club redundant. The one you want to start?
