Was the joke in that book? I’m pretty sure I’ve never read it, and I remember coming up with the joke.
Early 80s, I think. “All syllogisms” was one of my first mass-produced button slogans—the business was started in 1977, but I took some years to start mass producing slogans.
My printing records say that I did 3 print runs in 1988, but that plausibly means that I had been selling the button for a while because I don’t think I was doing 3 print runs at a time.
Woody Allen
All syllogisms have three parts
Therefore, this is not a syllogism
I came up with that.
Cool! Before or after 1987?

I thought I read the joke in Culture Made Stupid, but I can’t find it now and am probably mistaken.
