Department of Redundancy Department

Policy
Whenever you see anything redundant around the site (comments, articles, etc.), say something like " Department of Redundancy Department calling you", "Hello, Department of Redundancy Department? " or something like that. Spread the word about us, so we can get even more members to spread the word! (Yes, it's redundant, but that's the whole point :P)

Redundancy
This is our biggest department. Basically, you guys cover the general area of redundancy. It goes for stating the obvious, logical fallacies, and so on. Just put link to this page whenever you see something redundant. Just don't start or encourage flaming.

Stating the Obvious
Some people, particularly new users (heck, even some of the older users), state the obvious a lot. Link them here if they do. No flaming.

Logical Fallacy
Anything said in a debate or argument that makes no sense (see here for additional information), link here. No flaming.

Dramatic Irony
Something ironic or hypocritical presented in a comment or argument. Pretty self-explanatory. As per above, no flaming.

Subjects
If there's anything that you find redundant, add them to the list here. Links are optional, and you don't need to link to a specific article, either. Please feel free to put items on the list that you feel are redundant. Links aren't required, and you can post any thing you think is redundant here.
