Not even wrong
Not even wrong, also known as "sealing your argument into the depths of nothingness", is a term used to describe arguments that nobody cares about them because their purpose is not to mean something, but to simply sound smart, without being able to be proven wrong (or right), which is the motivation for 99.999% of the arguments of the Internet. So yeah, nobody cares about them.. nobody.. EXPECT THE LEGENDARY "I LIKE TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING" TYPE OF Pseudo-intellectuals, who care about any stupid argument they see.
Why we're always "not even wrong"
Do you know how to define the following terms we all use:
- You (what are all your damn properties? expect your name and your funny face..)
- Phone (what is it made of?)
- Happy (what do you mean by that practically?)
if you answered "I don't know" to even one of those, then congrats, you are way less stupid than most of the population, who keep arguing arguments with the equivalent of arguing that "sdgdfhdfhdhdh is not fhhfhfh".
By the way..
This page is quite a self-reference - most of what is written here is probably not even wrong either. And if you realized that - at least now you know something that is NOT not not not not not not.. even wrong (is that good?)

Not even wrong on RationalWiki - that wiki is our friend, it knows what it is talking about!
Mark manson arguing he's "wrong about everything" - which is dumb, of course, because that's not even wrong in itself.. Unless... Unless.. You know. Wait, but isn't this claim not even wrong in itself? But the thought that it's not even wrong in itself, is also not even.. *head explodes*
