How about a more popular one: numbers in the law are just arbitrary things so who cares when people start smoking or drinking. If the numbers 18 and 21 are just there as place holders for an etherial unascertainable nonsubstantive, then 12 year olds can sip whiskey and chaw on cigars from here on out. Thank you Dims for enlightening us to arbitrary number systems. Wait, wouldn't this make affirmative action quotas arbitrary too. Hmmm.
