As the amount of giant pandas decreases, our technology becomes better.
Therefore, we must kill more pandas in order to have more technological innovation.

Sorry, cute lil' fellas.

I thought I was done with statistics.  :-\

Here's one: As my phone runs lower on power, it gets darker outside. Therefore, my phone causes the sunset. (Only applicable for today, but whatever. I'm too tired to think of something good.)

My air conditioner is broken, and the sun is hotter outside today. Therefore, the sun ruins air conditioners.
Kinda defeats the purpose of them, doesn't it?

The more I open the fridge door, the more I tend to eat.
The more I eat, the more weight I tend to gain.

Therefore, opening the refrigerator causes me to gain weight.

The more cheese you have, the more holes in the cheese you have

The more holes in the cheese you have, the less cheese you have

Therefore the more cheese you have, the less cheese you have

(Perhaps we should change this to the Logical Fallacy thread? That'd be more inclusive)
