Nobel Savage Fallacy

Nobel Savage Fallacy (not to be confused with the Noble Savage Myth) is an error in reasoning by which incidental commonalities between modern scientific theory/technology and ancient cultural expressions are claimed to support a conclusion that the ancients must have had access to modern knowledge.

The fallacy is usually committed by those with an at best shallow understanding of either modern science, ancient cultures, or - frequently - both.

It is commonly committed by those seeking to bolster the foundations of their modern cultural hegemony by arguing that the purported central tenets of its ancient precursors were rationally developed, and any deviations from those traditional norms are movement away from the ostensibly scientific ideal.

It is also frequently deployed by charlatans attempting to sell products or services derived from ancient techniques, who wish to gain a veneer of scientific plausibility for their offerings - that they in no way deserve.

"No, dude, those symbols do not mean they had spaceships, even if they look a little bit like that rocket Bezos made - mistaking what is obviously a poorly-drawn penis for a spacecraft is just the Nobel Savage Fallacy!"

"Babe, Gwenyth can say whatever she likes - but stuffing that crystal up your coochie is not gonna cure anything, even if the Biddelonians have been doing it for centuries... yes, I've heard of phototherapy, but that crystal isn't gonna refract any light up there, it's just another Nobel Savage Fallacy!"

Savage Sub

That one substitute teacher that never lets you get away with anything. She has more of an attitude than the rest of the students combined. When your friend asks a question, she ends up giving some smart-ass response back to him. Then she orders you around to like pick up things she dropped or asking you to constantly turn the heat up or down.

Doesn't let you go to the restroom or listen to music. When she reports back to the original teacher, she starts talking in that really innocent voice like she was actually doing her work. In reality she doing her make-up for 30+ minutes.

When she walks out like a stuck-up bitch, she says "bye" in a really sarcastic tone. Then the original teacher begins to yell at all of us for being so disrespectful to her.

Oh great, it's that damned Savage Sub again. Last time she slapped me with a ruler!
