Ad Populum

When people claim something is automatically right because a large number of people are saying it. You can have a scenario with a hundred idiots and all their mates vs 1 clever person on their own. The karma system on reddit is probably the most egregious implementation of this idea tbh since people blindly assume upvotes = 100% correct in all scenarios
Person A: that game has bad reviews so it must suck. All my mates said it suck so it must be true

Person B: have you played it yourself? Sounds like Ad Populum to me
Person A: huh?

Liv Ades

The actual most amazing person you’ll ever met. I think everyone is in love with her. She probably doesn’t know you but it’s ok! She’s so funny and kind and she doesn’t care what anyone thinks about her! She’s actually so talented and a good singer!
“Liv Ades has no clue who I am but I love her” “Liv, if you see this please. Marry me.”

Adelys

Adelys is the meaning of queen of all, she is the type of friend that will defend you even if your wrong but will always make sure you know your wrong and correct you. One thing to know is that she’s very hard headed and a hothead too, but on the inside she’s the type of person that thrives for love and hopes to find a person to understand her, in school she’s not popular but she also not a loner she just 𝐾𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑛
