Fallacy of composition

For starters, fallacy means a flawed truth. Fallacy of composition means a flawed assumption of truth.

I read heard it this way...

Think crowded baseball game. You can't see because of the guy in front of you. If you stand up, then you can see. However, the fallacy of composition is that if EVERYBODY stands up, nobody can see the game any clearer than if they were all sitting down.

Compenition

Used when mis-pronouncing 'competition' after getting way to excited about something. Still a reasonable substitute that gets the job done and the message across.

In the good news, im ready to give 'em some real compenition!
