Great Falls

Place:

A town in northern Fairfax County between Sterling VA and McLean. Great Falls differs from most of Northern Virginia by having homes on very large yards and having no apartments or townhomes whatsoever. Because it offers a wealth of land and privacy in the middle of the D.C. metro area, homes and estates in Great Falls command very high prices. Within Great Falls is a park with waterfalls that take the lives of several kayakers a year and cliffs that injure dozens of freeclimbers and parkour enthusiasts.

Great Falls has no sidewalks, but many cyclists. There are also many exotic sports cars and fast, winding roads. Because of this, Great Falls has more cyclists hit by Ferraris than any other part of the country. Everyone in Great Falls knows who their neighbour is but has never met them, mostly because 12-foot gates are not very welcoming. There are only two roads to travel from Great Falls to Washington, D.C. This leads to failtastic traffic jams all day.
Man in Great Falls: - "I paid $11 million for a 20,000 SqFt. house with a multi-level deck, infinity pool, tiki bar, pool house for my emo son, basement movie theater, five car garage, horse barn, ballroom, and two-story master bedroom. "

"Five months later, Dick Cheney moves in across the street. FML"

Early Christmas Fallacy

When you celebrate an event before knowing it's final outcome. Often applied in sports, video games, and gambling, etc.

The idea behind the phrase is that children often tend to open their presents before 25th.
Kon: Guys! I think the Lakers are going to win in 4 this year!
Edgar: Definitely! Let's go drink some beer to celebrate!

after championship where Lakers won in 5.

Shyam: You guys fell for the Early Christmas Fallacy.

Next time just wait until they win before celebrating guys.

Screaming Nigger Fallacy

The trite insinuation or assumption that anyone who has a problem with an online service, game or community's rules — specifically draconian rules based around restricting what members are allowed to say, — just wants to scream the word "nigger."

An inherent, reflexive, reductionist stance that dictates all support for free speech just means you want to spam the word "nigger" and don't care about anything else.
Screaming Nigger Fallacy User: "I don't think you care about people being allowed to express their views. I think you just want to say 'nigger.' I bet that's what you were banned for!"

tu quoque fallacy

(LOGIC) a logical fallacy in which a person defends against an allegation by accusing an adversary of doing the same thing. It's a classic douchebag move because it implies that the speaker has a RIGHT to be a douchebag, by virtue of the fact that someone ELSE is being a douchebag.

From Latin, for "you, too."

WHY IT'S BAD
Suppose A is accused of terrorism. He reacts by accusing B, his enemy, of terrorism. Now, it's possible (but unlikely) that A actually chose this argument knowing he was totally innocent. More likely he wants to claim that his terrorism is PROVOKED. In effect, he's saying, "I have to do this, or I'm entitled to do this, because B did it first."

First, as logic it's a red herring. But what makes it douchebaggery rather than just another wartime propaganda tactic, is that it's MORALLY irrelevant as well as LOGICALLY irrelevant. The victims of terrorism almost never have any material control over either perpetrator ever.
ANNA: Abu Yahya, I don't know if your definition of "tu quoque fallacy" belongs in the Urban Dictionary. This isn't Wikipedia, you know.

ABU YAHYA: The reason I did is that I see all the time people using the rationale that, because somebody else did something bad to me, therefore I get to do something similar to anybody. It's sort of like sloppy revenge.

ANNA: Like men punishing random women because their girlfriends allegedly did something shitty to them?

ABU YAHYA: Actually, that's a perfect example of a tu quoque!
