Just so story
/ʤəst səʊ ˈstɔːri/ (n.)
An unfalsifiable narrative explanation for a cultural practice, trait, or behaviour. A way of getting the the crux of things without getting weighed down by details. A favourite rhetorical device in these pages. Especially handy where JC doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
