Valid
A property of an argument in logic that preserves the truth, in which there is a neccessary agreement between the premises (assuming that they are true) and the conclusion; that one must undoubtedly arrive at the conclusion. It is not possible for the premises to be true, and the conclusion false. Note that validity is not the same as soundness, which is a valid argument that has all true premises.

Valid:
If I am in Paris, then I am in France; I'm in Paris, therefore I am in France. If I am not in France, then I am not in Paris; oh look, I'm in New York; therefore I must not be in France.
Invalid:
If I am in France, then I am in Paris; Woah! I'm in France, I must be in Paris...BUZZ! I'm actually in Bordeaux.
Either 2 plus 2 equals 22, or Santa Clause is real; but 2 plus 2 does not equal 22; so Santa Clause is real.
Unsound but Valid:
All mammals are cats (false, but assuming it is true); All cats are animals; So all mammals are animals.

Validated
A term thrown around with no explanation in Shot Caller. The word used when a person has been confirmed as being involved in a gang, prison or otherwise. Could lead to more restricted priveleges in the hole, segregation from general pop, and possible time in the SHU. Once you have been validated and are out of prison, you get a "special condition" of your parole, and that means that you cannot associate with anyone who is a gang member, former gang member, affiliate, associate whether you knew it or not. If you are caught doing so, you get more time.

Valid
Used when you're making a statement about how someone's personality, character, or entire existence, is 100% normal and should be seen/accepted as a good thing.

Sarah: Tom, did you erase all my MP3s?
Tom: Hey! File sharing is a crime, and I'm not gonna be anally raped so you can listen to Usher.
Sarah: *Sigh* You know Tom, this whole "anal rape" thing is really causing both of us to miss out on a lot in life

Sarah walks away. Seconds later, she realizes her mistake for calling out her husband's traumatizing fear of being anally raped. Tom, who stands in the kitchen with a stern but calm face, watches as his wife approaches him with a serious look.

Sarah: Tom, honey, I...I'm...so sorry. I shouldn't have treated your issue so carelessly. I shouldn't have been so...inconsiderate of how you feel. Your fear, your issue,...is 100% valid and I want you to know that I care about you. I know the trauma that you went through was hurtful and has caused you pain and suffering, but I want to let you know...I will always be there for you. Being so open about how you're feeling and expressing your emotions and fears shows how much of a real man you are. That makes you so much of a valid person. It's the reason I married you Tom. I hope you can forgive me. I love you.

Tom sheds a tear as he listens to every word Sarah has spoken to him. He's stunned and relieved to hear how much his wife loves him.

Tom: Sarah, I always knew you were the one the first time we met. Those words just made my day. I love you too Sarah.

Tom and Sarah glance into each other's eyes, and share a wholesome kiss.
