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!?"

Staple's Fallacy

The idea that people need to be compelled to not be pieces of shit. This is built on the assumption that people are shitty by nature, ie Madison vs. Monroe and the federalist papers. This fallacy provides a way of passing judgement on others for their assumptions or opinions, and contributes disagreeable assumptions/opinions to an over-generalization that is based on geographic location. The fact that it is just geographic location that determines a person's assumptions or opinions shows how over-generalized this idea is, which in turn makes it a fallacy.

he emphasized Staple's Fallacy when he said that they are stupid and ignorant because they come from an underdeveloped part of the world.
