Word: tupaiid Part of Speech: noun 1. Any of the family Tupaiidae of tree shrews. Example: Some authors rank tupaiids in a separate order Tupaioidea (Martin, 1966), while others retain them among the Primates (Napier and Napier, 1967) or 1nsectivora (Hill, 1953b). The uncertainty surrounding tupaiid phylogeny is a consequence of an inadequate fossil record. Example: Dental characters have proven to be of little use as there is no Paleocene tree shrew, which would show more primitive tupaiid dental characters. From the dentition of living tupaiids, one would easily infer that all of them have derived characters that prevent them from being ancestral to primates, among which [are] specializations in their dentitions or molar characters in tupaiines (see Butler, 1980).

Example: It was not merely its quiet monotony, its unbroken sameness of topics as of events, and its small economies, always appearing on the surface; but that a young girl like Kate, full of life and spirits, gay, handsome, and high-hearted, — that she should go her mill-round of these tiresome daily cares, listening to the same complaints, remedying the same evils, meeting the same difficulties, and yet never seem to resent an existence so ignoble and unworthy!

Word: Hanlon's razor Part of Speech: name Etymology: Named by analogy with Occam's razor after Robert J. Hanlon of Scranton, Pennsylvania, who was credited for the adage he submitted to a compilation of various jokes related to Murphy’s law published in Arthur Bloch’s Murphy’s Law Book Two: More Reasons Why Things Go Wrong! (1980); however, a similar quotation appears in Robert A. Heinlein’s “Logic of Empire” (1941), “You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity”, wherein it is described as the “devil theory” of sociology. 1. The adage stating "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." Example: McCord may have bungled the taping of the internal doors, all right, but remember Hanlon's Razor, which is a maxim that states: "Never blame on malice that which can be fully explained by stupidity." Example: But at many other times, journalists come up with overly convoluted explanations for Trump's behavior ("this seemingly self-destructive emotional outburst is actually a clever political strategy!") when simpler ones will suffice ("this is a self-destructive emotional outburst."). In doing so, they violate both Ockham's razor and Hanlon's razor — the latter of which can be stated as "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

Example: Also, I invoke Newton's Flaming Laser Sword on this thread.

It was even remarked, as an evidence of his worth, that, when promoted to a lieutenancy, he looked down upon the ensigns with that becoming condescension which befitted his new rank; and up to the captains with the deferential respect he felt to be due to that third step in the five-barred gate of regimental promotion, on which his aspiring but chained foot had not yet succeeded in reposing. Example: Neither of these were very congenial callings; but he might, perhaps, have reconciled himself to them, had it not been for the chilling and repulsive formalism which pervaded the whole establishment.
