\ˈnän-ˈse-kwə-tər also -tu̇r\
Definition:
an inference that does not follow from the premises; specifically : a fallacy resulting from a simple conversion of a universal affirmative proposition or from the transposition of a condition and its consequent result.
Example: We were talking about the new restaurant when she threw in some non sequitur about her dog.
Etymology: Literally, the expression is Latin for "it does not follow." It comes from the words "non" meaning not, and the deponent verb sequor, sequi, secutus sum, meaning to follow.
So, why would this latin term apply to this comic? Tell me what you think.
