Strawman Arguments (I call them Stickman Arguments, sometimes) are arguments in which someone who you are debating takes your points and twists them to get ground on you in order to form a refutation in which they are correct.
Person A: *Signs on to start a topic saying:* For anyone out there who questions God because God doesn't always answer your prayers, the truth is: God doesn't help us because we have free will.
Person B: That's an unsound argument because it has no ground to stand on and it is overused. It's like saying, "What if I'm right and you're wrong and you go to Hell?" to an atheist.
Person A: We're not talking about Hell, therefore your refutation has no grounds.
Person B: Please take your strawman arguments somewhere else
Person A: You're going to burn in Hell for not believing in God!
Person A signs off.
Person B facepalms.

Get the Strawman Arguments mug.Made ass arguments is a term used to refer to arguments during a debate or discussion or arguing that are actually simply arguments used for ridicule someone or shame someone, usually united with argumentative falacies and logical falacies. Made ass arguments are usually used on political and religious debates / arguings on internet, where this form of argumentation is usually normal.
I am not going to "debate" politics on internet because literally everyone just use made ass arguments on those "debates".

Get the Jonah Arguement mug.Arguement is argument spelt by a wannabe who thinks he's Mr.Slick when he's actually a slimy skank who skipped his school to sell kuchi ice.
when people think about masturbation, whatever the kind, their mind gets clouded and they spell argument as arguement.

Get the agrument mug.A conversational discrepancy while unemployed and or not receiving a salary to make deductions from that occurs every attempt to make fee payment request to a parent or friend and or during a job interview with a potential employer and or trying and justify not having a job due to failures and or inadequacies. Usually involves raised voices and sometimes physical contact. In the less evolved and or poorer societies sometimes leads to one and or the other dying through some type of unsolicited rage and is labeled domestic violence in certain law enforcement agencies police reports and or files for one example and then the other person has to get arrested and or go to jail with some type of manslaughter sentence for a certain duration of years and sometimes multiple years after some low grade detective is supposed to followup on a missing persons report. Otherwise generally arguments are found in programming languages however have more to do with system arguments rather than human conversation text and more to do system, programming and handling errors, mostly jargon and difficult to label in intellisense in the ide for solutions and pops out for sde as a programming coding error and or bug reporting error where not all the coding end points are defined and or the specific plugin fixes and requires some sort of patch job. Some educational institutions create debates. Generally avoided
I don't want to get into an arguement over "insert sensitive topic and or subject word here" because this is the solution "insert solution" said no one ever.
