Fallacious reasoning
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Fallacious reasoning is present in almost all IRC 'debates'. It is also widely used by Children. It comes from Greek: reasoning = logos, fallacious = of or relating to phallus. Here are a few timeless examples to get you started
- Trees moves when the wind blows, therefore trees must cause the wind.
- People kill other people with guns. People will stop killing each other if we take away their guns.
- Joan Collins is famous, she's fucked a lot of people, she must be attractive/good in bed
- McDonald's is everywhere, a lot of people eat there, it must be a good place to eat.
- This dog keeps sniffing my crotch, it must be in heat, I should have sex with it
She's bleeding, she must be old enough(This is not fallacious)
- Mudkips, I heard you liek them.
