Fun read.

Calling a few friends over cuz I KNOW you'll all be able to use this, somehow, somewhere!

BTW, if you check out visitor's submissions, you'll see that there are two from yours truly. </brag>

And, as embarassing as it is to admit, I came up with the "YOU KNOW BETTER" technique because I caught myself doing it...

[Fred Nerks]

thanks to vannrox who posted this. most of it will remind us all of a number of guess who?

[jammer]

It IS a fun--and accurate--read. May I add another category? I call it "over-the-topism", such as, say, entitling a piece on logical fallacy, "Conversational Terrorism."

Thanks for posting this. Now I can learn to be the life of the party.

[P.O.E.]

The reductio ad absurdam, such as "I suppose you'd want to execute everyone who has been questioned by police".

THINK VS. FEEL

That's Dr. Laura's ploy.

She also gets annoyed when people thank her for her time.

Both cheap shots.

Since I'm only half-awake and he only promised me one-third the truth (All of the techniques listed in this document have actually been witnessed, told to us by someone else, or dreamed up. They are described in first person for clarity of motive) how can I be expected to be persuaded as to the merits of his critique?

[Trinity_Tx]

LOL Excellent!

Sometimes I wish everyone had these techniques as well as the logical fallacies all memorized by code...

When someone tried to pull one on ya, you could just say, "we both know you're pulling CT2 - Try again." lol

[Freebird Forever]

Thanks for putting this up.

I think I've seen almost every one of these used here at some point.

[Interesting Times]

I find this article very patronizing.

"You're new here, aren't you."

TRANSLATION: I just searched FR for a full history of your comments to see if you've been a troll. I found out you have no history at all, meaning you have no advocates, no reputation and no clout. I'm just pointing this out to gather all my allies so we can whine about you to the admin to have you zotted because you said something we don't like

Alt:

Welcome to FR.

Translation:
Moderator, this guy just said something I don't like! Zot him! Zot him! Boo Hoo Hoo Hoo!

"That's Calvinism."

What I always hear around the religion forum is "That's Arminianism." From that point on, it will be presumed that you believe all sorts of other things that Arminius [sp?] believed, which they can then debate you on, rather than the issue you brought up.
