You read something about a prime minister having to do with
carcinogenic animal heads, and wonder what it means. After a
few searches you are still bewildered. Quora is not the right
place to post this too-specific question, and discussing it on the
website where you saw it would be off topic.
So you head over to wdtm.com give the original place where
you
saw it, mark the words you want explained or post a
screenshot, and people explain it.

I suppose, since people have widely varying thinking processes, it will help find a group to converse with. The right meaning being the one held by group chosen. |
|
|
But then again, your here. |

How would you know if the explanations were true or not? The answers could be auto-generated, or tautological, or nonsensical, or irrelevant. |

I would live there. I rarely know what anything means. Like
what's the meaning of life??? |
|
|
The meaning of life is procreation. Nothing else matters. If this were not true you would not exist. |

//carcinogenic animal heads// It might have been related to the story of David Cameron (ex uk pm) and his placing
his right-Honorable member into the mouth of a banquet-style suckling pig during some booze-fueled university
shenanigans. It may be true, it might not be true. Interestingly, the story was largely put about by Isabel
Euphemia Oakeshott, mouthpiece for nefarious right-wing factions of the Tory and UKIP parties (since effectively
merged), who all stood to benefit from a blanket smearing of Cameron and associates. |

The meaning of life is 42. This has been proven time and
again. Where have you people been anyway? |

Non sequitur ipso facto post coitum |

Here here. Thanks zentom. He splained it. |
|
|
So now the remaining question is what does non
sequitur mean and how is it connected with max's
memory. I'm hear. |
|
|
Well, according to Giggle's translation site, the phrase //Non sequitur ipso facto post coitum// becomes //It does not follow automatically after mating// |
|
|
I think MB would have used the phrase to point out that without mating none of us would exist, but not all mating results in conception. |
|
|
I hope that clears up your confusion, pashute. |
|
|
I could over-explain it if you like, but then it *definitely*
wouldn't be funny any more. |
