Happiness or a ham sandwich?
Which is better, eternal happiness or a ham sandwich? It would appear that eternal happiness is better, but this is really not so! After all, nothing is better than eternal happiness, and a ham sandwich is certainly better than nothing. Therefore a ham sandwich is better than eternal happiness.
Proof that I am Dracula
(1) Everyone is afraid of Dracula.
(2) Dracula is afraid of only me.
Therefore I am Dracula.
Doesn't that argument sound like just a silly joke? Well it isn't, it is valid. Since everyone is afraid of Dracula, then Dracula is afraid of Dracula. So Dracula is afraid of Dracula, but also is afraid of no one but me. Therefore I must be Dracula!
