Is this the opposite of Fallacy fallacy? Totnesmartin (talk) 11:29, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure. I was boozing last night and I've lost the ability to parse double negatives. --ConcernedresidentAsk me about our bamboo 11:34, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
Perhaps we should do phobophobia (hating the haters), Conservapedia:Conservapedia (what CP says about itself) and argumentum ad argumentum? (winning the argument by going on about it for so long that everyone else gets ground down into agreeing - happens a lot on WP). Totnesmartin (talk) 11:46, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
I like those ideas. The phobophobia thing is pretty common. I suppose extremism invites extreme responses. Argumentum ad argumentum seems a pretty popular Internet meme. I see it a lot in discussion forums, and we've had it here as well - specifically in the never-ending abortion debates. Well, the latter would be true if people weren't stubborn. --ConcernedresidentAsk me about our kitten 12:08, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
