One logical fallacy is called an Ad Hominem. This is when someone responds to an argument by attacking the character of a person rather than using reasoning. For example, a response to "Nobody likes when it rains" may be "Just because you're ugly doesn't mean people don't like rain". Have you ever used or experienced an Ad Hominem?

Another fallacy is called a Red Herring. This is when someone responds to an argument by attempting to distract the other person by introducing another topic. For example, a response to "Parking at hospitals should be free" may be "Isn't it crazy how much car insurance is these days?" Have you ever used or experienced a Red Herring?

Another fallacy is called a Hasty Generalization. This is when a generalization draws a general rule from a single (and sometimes atypical) case. For example, "American Airlines had three delayed flights today so no airlines ever arrive on time". Have you ever used or experienced a Hasty Generalization fallacy?
