Reductio ad Ursidae: A satirical rhetorical tactic used to invalidate men's actions or arguments by making constant and often absurd comparisons to bears. For example, This technique highlights the irrationality of these comparisons by suggesting that men's behavior is so lacking that even a bear, known for its raw destructiveness, would act more considerately. However, in reality, a bear would cause far more damage and chaos than a man could.
“A bear wouldn’t leave the toilet seat up”
“Don’t pull the bear card”
“Excuse me it’s Reductio ad ursidae to be correct”

This was likely first a confusion from the phrase "roll the film", and the idea of rolling the advertisements that come at the beginning of publicly screened films at most movie theaters.
"Hey dad, I know you told your boyfriend you'd be at his place by 8, but before you get drinking, mom's attorney really needs you to review and sign the divorce paperwork."
"Oh fine, roll the ads!"
1. She loves to bake
2. She can be a great friend but can also be your great enemy.
