Slow Club
Slow Club is the formal organization of experts in informal logic and pedantry. Founded by J. N. Spoilsport, the organization is focused on minute details of arguments, on the analysis of irrelevant concepts and on perfecting the public's understanding of whatever.
Slow Club is in the habit of providing commentary to the media on all sorts of matters.

Known conjectures
The difference between identical objects
According to Slow Club scholars, a pair of identical objects is conceptually impossible because it is always possible to find a parameter that will differ. For instance, a pair of otherwise identical objects will have different coordinates.
The perpetual motion machine paradox
A perpetual motion machine is a hypothetical machine that can do work indefinitely without an energy source. Slow Club argues that the impossibility of a perpetual motion machine is unproven, since for all we know the Universe might be a closed system which runs indefinitely.
2+2=4
J. N. Spoilsport claims that algebraic knowledge is irrelevant in the macro world, because there are no identical objects (see first conjecture in this section). Therefore, one apple + another apple are not two apples, but rather the first and the second apple together.
