Or in Latin:
ita vero, sequitur.
Just respond “You’re not seeing the big picture.”
“Trump and Clinton are both terrible candidates. We shouldn’t vote for either of them.”
“Keep in mind that, despite their name, the average centipede has seventy legs.”
“What? What the hell does that have to do with the election? That’s a complete non sequitur.”
“You’re not seeing the big picture. Think about it.”
And then nod once and walk away.
Fish for dinner?
So there’s these two elephants in a bath tub…
If the person is a Star Trek fan then respond in a monotone with “Your facts are uncoordinated”.
My wife uses, “the price of beans in China.”
Damn, beat me to it*!*
If you’re a Python fan you should just yell, “BURMA!”…
“Non-sequitur?”…that’s what [del]she[/del] Nomad said!
“No it isn’t”
That’s not a non-sequitur,
Ceci n’est pas une pipe!
You’re wrong because my father says “the price of fish in China”.
“You know who was against non-sequiturs? Hitler, that’s who.”
“Mange tout Rodney, Mange tout”
This I like. Always mess with their minds, man.
“It’s pretty much the most sequiturian thing I’ve ever said”.
mmm
No soap, radio.
Oh wait, I missed QuickSilver’s post.
Instead make them explain why it’s a non sequitur.
Tell them “You’re begging the question.” Nobody knows what that means either.
I’m reminded of a bit by Louis CK, where he says that if people call you an asshole, you don’t get to argue about that. The only sensible response is: “OK, what happened, and how did I get here?”
As others have mentioned, if everyone was constantly accusing me of spouting non sequiturs, I think might want to look into whether they were onto something.
Either a strong “No, you are a non-sequitur!”
or
"No, it is very sequitur!
