tard logic

When one takes a complex issue/idea and oversimplifies it to a point where they think they have a grasp of it. This oversimplified version is then used to make arguments to justify ones impressive knowledge to others about the subject usually leaving gaping holes that are obvious to anyone knowledgeable of the original complex issue/idea while occasionally "Wow"ing similarly logically challenged individuals.

These people are generally not complete idiots and can even have higher level degrees that they will use to back their arguments whenever possible. While some people have a natural inclination towards using tardlogic, it can be learned by others who see those using it move ahead or have them as a mentor on the subject.

The name comes from the persons retarded ability to comprehend even the simplest logic, especially if it proves them wrong. They will go to great strides to come up with any work out to make their original statement right, no matter how many logical fallacies they create in the process.

Similar to Elementary School Logic and usually employed in cases like that. And on some occasions it can degrade to full blown Insane troll logic
