Logical fallacies on the Flood.
In a forum dominated by middle-class caucasian teenagers, sound logic will never be top priority in arguments. What is the most common logical fallacy you've seen on B.net?
The ones this site are most guilty of are probably strawman or sharpshooter arguments - just take a look at gun debates between b.net's resident experts.

Edited by Quantum: 6/9/2013 8:24:46 AM1. Strawman. 2. Argument from Ignorance. 3. Slippery slope. Half the Flood doesn't even know what the proper definition of ad hominem is anyway (it's not simply insulting someone).

Your face is a logical fallacy.

2 RepliesThe logic that makes my day here on the flood is that girls are solely attracted to your inner most feelings, no matter how fat, lazy and disgusting you look. You know this logic is thought be some here because they cannot comprehend why the female they stalk (lol) has no interest in them at all.

Also, the term "ad hominem" is misused an assload. It doesn't mean "generic insult".

Strawman by far.

Ad Hominem because "OP are an fag." Strawman is a close second.

Slippery slope. Communist.

Strawman, followed by black/white and ad hominen.
