pulling a fell

When you twist facts or words to make them out to be what their not, when you pull "evidence" out of where the sun don't shine, when you call your opponent as many names as you can, and when you act like everyone that doesn't agree with you is wrong, stupid, and/or misogynistic.

Term originated from the actions of James S. Fell, who wrote manipulative and terrible articles such as "Men's Rights Activists Have Taken Over Urban Dictionary" and "The Toxic Appeal of the Men's Rights Movement."

Dan: Did you hear about how John lied in his essay, twisting what other people said, pulling evidence out of his arse, calling who he disagreed with things like "man-babies," and acted like who disagreed with him were misogynistic, despite the fact that about half of those who disagreed with him were women?

Joan: Talk about pulling a fell.

Pulling a "James S. Fell"/Pulling a "Fell" 

Pulling a "James S. Fell" is when someone thinks he/she/they/zey/zorg is "educating the masses" but is in fact only proving to everyone that they are a misinformed idiot (IQ under 85) who is incapable of doing basic research that isn't twisted by their own ideology.
Being incapable of using well formed logical arguments supported by reliable data, they instead turn to shaming language and misinformation as their only means of attacking their opponent.
In other words "Pulling a Fell" is like the Dunning–Kruger effect, but with more name calling and moronic dribbling.

The term comes from "fitness guru" James Fell who has written many misinformed article about topics he is ignorant about, when he should be focusing on running in a straight line (something that takes all his concentration). It is unknown who taught him to use a keyboard, but it is rumored that with intensive help he is now capable of sometimes switching on his own computer by himself.
