Look, you need to get a few things straight. I already thought through the situation before posting. I already realized my stupidity and made sure to admit it.

Furthermore, it appears as if you are in need to get your head IN a few books. Logic is behind every single argument and thought that you or every other person in this world make. Not everyone is good at logic, but they use logic to form arguments and opinions.

A fallacy is a bad argument, it's a logical statement which is known to be inconclusive or doesn't mean what you hope it means.

I'm sure you understand well that calling someone an idiot doesn't make their argument any less valid, or that comparing someone to Hitler doesn't destroy their reasoning. These are both fallacies.

And just because I was an idiot and stranded myself doesn't excuse the behavior of those running over my flares. (tu quoque fallacy).

Got it?
