//Methods returning an Option of Boolean(or generally any Monad of Boolean)
def one: Option[Boolean] = Some(true)

def two: Option[Boolean] = Some(true)

//I'd like to be able to write something like the following.
if (!one && two) {

}

//This is ugly
one.flatMap { oneBool =>
  if (!oneBool) {

//I could also do this, but it still seems a bit ugly

//Alternately I could do the following
implicit val andMonoid = Monoid.instance[Boolean]((a, b) => a && b, true)
if ((one.map(!_) |+| two).getOrElse(false)) {
  //Do stuff
}
