A "lapalissade" refers to a statement that is so obvious that it is tautological or redundant, often to the point of being humorous. The term originates from a character named Jacques Lapalisse, a French nobleman who, according to legend, had an epitaph that included statements about his undeniable existence and qualities, which were evident and self-evident.
