Get the Argeement mug.An argument that goes nowhere. Though a person believes he or she is arguing a point, the argument does not progress because the individual provides the same point for the effect as he/she does for the cause (i.e., the effect is just the cause stated in different words). In short, what is given as the effect is already made obvious--either overtly or implicitly--by the supporting reason provided.
To say, "I didn't like that movie because it was really bad," is to provide a premise in support of the opinion that goes without saying. It goes without saying that if one does not like the movie, he/she will not believe the movie is good. Likewise, statements such as "I am Bainz, so I am drunk," "I enjoy listening to music when I study because music helps me to study," and "I wear Fant-Ho shades because they're the best shades" are equally circular in nature. A true argument would supply support that explains WHY Bainz is always drunk, HOW music helps the person's study habits, and WHAT makes Fant-Ho shades better than other brands.
Dumb people write circular arguments.

Swain stated the obvious when he made the circular argument, "I am Swain; therefore, I am a clown-bitch." I was like, duh!

An argument that is so bad that it is instantly destroyed by everyone who encounters it. An argument that is so clearly false that the only person who could possibly take it seriously is someone who is borderline retarded. To be a true elliotic argument the argument must be defended by a deluded fool who despite his extreme inadequacies suffers from a severe case of megalomania.
have you seen this guy who calls himself The AK? His arguments are so bad that they qualify as elliotic arguments.

Get the arguementalist mug.A "Rare Ren Agreement" (RRA for short) is a very uncommon moment where the user "renbloxian" says something smart that people actually seem to agree with.
Moments like these occur once people say some stupid shit and renbloxian manages to dominate the conversation by saying something useful.

This is one of the first times that I've ever been able to agree with renbloxian, I for real consider this a "Rare Ren Agreement"

Get the Rare Ren Agreement mug.An agreement generally between two males or occasionaly two parties (I.E countries) in which an informal agreement is made as apposed to something that is signed and ratified and usually has no legal basis, it is simply a man giving his word that he will do something which is based on the traditional value of honour amongst gentlemen. That should one man break his end of the agreement his Honour and trustworthiness will be called into repute and his status as a gentleman is finished. More modern language is likely used such as "losing your man card" for breaches of the agreement but the principle stays the same.
Has been used many times in the past particularly during war amongst generals (who were considered men of honour) to broker such things as temporary ceasefires to evacuate wounded men, or the famous Christmas truce in WW1.
A more modern and simpler example would be if two guys were watching a sports game and they decided to bet each other on the outcome. The agreement is informal but there is a gentlemans agreement to follow through and pay up should one lose. Failure to pay on losing would be a breach of the gentlemans agreement and the loser runs the risk of being known as a bad payer and people would be less likely to bet with him in the future thus tarnishing his reputation and his word

The Christmas truce of 1914 was a prime example of a gentlemans agreement. That each man would lay his weapons down for the sake of the unofficial ceasefire, with each man effectively upholding a gentlemans agreement that they would not attack

Get the Gentlemans Agreement mug.The ‘Alpaca of Agreement’ is an emoji used to convey agreement or acceptance over digital communication mediums. Emojis such as the ‘thumbs up’ are overused, and the ‘fist bump’ can be misinterpreted as a desire to inflict bodily harm upon the recipient. The Alpaca of Agreement was born out of society’s overwhelming desire to find a better way to express agreement digitally.
Born in the Moquegua Valley region of Peru, the expression was originally the ‘Llama of Agreement’. The name was later changed after widespread backlash due to the fact that llamas are not agreeable whatsoever, and will literally spit in your face just to be a jerk.
The name was recently changed to Alpaca of Agreement, based on the even temperament of alpacas and their generally convivial nature. Also, Unicode brings up the same emoji for either animal
