Syllogism Test: (Get your Venn diagrams out, kids) 
 
Given the following two statements: 
 
Most Troofers are MIHOP 
 All LIHOP are Troofers
 
What conclusion can we make: 
  
   A.) All LIHOP are MIHOP
 B.) Some MIHOP are LIHOP
 C.) Both A and B
 D.) Either A or B but not both
 E.) All Troofers are WHACKOS
  
TOPICS: Chit/Chat; Humor; Politics; Weird Stuff
KEYWORDS: lihop; mihop; troofers
    Use a number two pencil, fill in the circle completely.
To: Lonesome in Massachussets
    Not from the two statements, but “E”.
 
To: Lonesome in Massachussets
    Meaning that logically you can’t infer ANY of your five choices from the two statements.

    I was inspired by a website that started out, "Most Truthers are MIHOP"... It sprung into my funnel, as Thomas would say. Hint: 
google MIHOP, LIHOP and Truther.
