Post hoc

A logical fallacy in which one event is said to be the cause of a later event simply because it occurred earlier. From the Latin, short for post hoc, ergo propter hoc, "after this, therefore because of this."

Basically: A occurred, then B occurred. Therefore, A caused B.

Post Hoc: Roosters crow just before the sun rises. Therefore, roosters crowing causes the sun to rise.

Post hoc rationalization

Don't care bitch you don't hage a right to do it EITHER WAY you fucking mongrel. You need to take your own advice and humble yourselves OR get your kids murdered more frequently until you learn to stop infesting people's lives like the cockroaches you are.

Hym "You're trying this as post hoc rationalization and it isn't going to work. 1 or 0 fuck-face. Choose."

Post hoc date

When two people in the 'talking phase' meet up initially and do date type things without planning on it, only to later realise that their meeting could qualify as a date.

Post hoc date refers to a date that is officially recognized or labeled as such after the fact, rather than being a planned or intentional first date.

The couple laughed about their first meeting, realizing that it was actually a post hoc date, as they had already grown close through weeks of getting to know each other.
