Period Argument

A fight with a woman that is so trivial that it can only be associated with that time of the month.

Ironic because, despite being associated with a period, you will never see the end of it(.)

Male Friend 1: She said that I accused her of lying about how she enjoys reading.

Male Friend 2: Are you serious? That is such a period argument.

I have just had an argument with my boyfriend about what the phrase 'no comment means'.
He does not want to comment on a subject that is important to me. I hate having an argument over something like that..i'm going to call him and make up

fagment

The term is used for situations where one or more gay friend(s) are displaced from a social circle--the circle thus becomes "fagmented". The inverse of this is referred to as "defagmentation".

Fagment is a portmanteau nonce word combining the meanings of "fragment" and gay man. The term was coined in the Buffalo, NY art community around Fall of 2007 and its usage is rapidly growing.

". . . this drama caused Dennis and Rodney to fagment from the group; we weren't sure how to defagment our social circle."

When the techs at Lawrence Livermore started talking to Fred about their work in quantum physics, Fred's inane babble about "subatomictoasticles" revealed to them that he was, in fact, a fragmentator on the subject.

Argumentum ab Scientia

Argumentum ab Scientia can mean two things, the first one is appeal to expertise, where it seeks on tell something is truth based on the opinion of experts on certain theme, but it can also mean appeal to science, that’s an argument where it says since something is considered as science it’s absolute and cannot be questioned. Both are two forms of argumentum ab scientia, being appeal to expertise more common than appeal to science.

“Argumentum ab Scientia is a common argument, mainly among scientistic people or people who put science, mainly natural sciences, as an absolute truth. The two main examples of the argumentum ab scientia can be a question to climate change and the second be “LGBT is a science then cannot be questioned” or even that “there’s nothing beyond matter and there’s just matter because naturalism, scientism and physicalism proved that”. Both are two forms of argumentum ab scientia, being the first one not actually an argumentum ad baculum and the second one is an argumentum ad baculum.!
