אילימא
(Aramaic. Literally, "If we say..")
"It's like on Star Trek, when Kirk and Spock and whoever leave the ship, and there's always that one extra guy in the red shirt, and you know that the guy in the red shirt is going to die. אילימא is the argument you bring that is for sure, no doubt about it, going to be shot down with your very next statement. It's a signal that the sentence following is wearing a red shirt."
