I have been a trekkie in my day.

I probably still am, but I've given up on recent incarnations.

And I had to look up the reference. Maybe I need to pick up those box sets.

Think original Star Trek. The I, Mudd episode. They are trying to confuse the head robot so they can escape. They tell him "Logic is like a little bird, sitting in a tree...". Along with other nonsensical things.

Logic is a little bird, tweeting in a meadow.

Logic is a wreath of beautiful flowers that smell bad.

I thought it was such a part of ST:TOS canon that it should have been an immediate link. Even without the box sets. Which I have.


Oh ...
