The 'Glass Mousepad' Fallacy

An informal fallacy in which you lambast or criticize someone for doing something unhealthy when you yourself do comparably unhealthy habits or actions. Essentially, it is hypocrisy specifically in the form of habit.
"Hey Conner, it's ridiculous how you spend hundreds of dollars on glass mousepads. That is such a waste of money, for shame!"
"How utterly preposterous of you to propose, Anthony; In actuality, you are committing the 'glass mousepad' fallacy. Why is it bad when I have unhealthy spending habits when you spend hundreds of dollars on Touhou merchandise? Why don't you practice what you preach!?"

Wino with a champagne glass

Someone who tries to pretend they’ve got a lot of money, but they don’t have anything
A wino is someone who drinks excessive amounts of cheap wine or malt liquor, and champagne is generally more expensive than wine, so it wouldn’t make sense for them to drink from a champagne glass unless they can actually afford champagne.
“That damn Rodger will put a 100 dollar bill on a stack of 1s and act like he’s counting up 100s”
“He’s like a wino with a champagne glass to be exact”

Full Glass of Wine

Uuuuuuuh... Weird. I mean... It's trying, right? Isn't it interesting that it looks like it's trying to LIFT the wine up to the top of the glass?
Hym "Huh.... Could be a... Prompt thing... Could be a data set issue... It could be the word 'FULL' itself (as it could be considered nebulous)... It is fascinating that you can actively see it effort to do the prompt.... Ok. Have it draw several wine glasses at the same time all with the markings of a measuring cup... And then have is fill the cup to the level of the difference markings up to the top... And the have it equate the one at it's fullest with the word 'full,' like, permanently.... Or... Is it trying to use the same glass of wine? Is it trying to fill the same half full cup... With the wine that is currently in the cup? Could be a prompt thing. Did you try to tell it to add more wine? It's weird though... A full glass of wine...."
