Your Logical Fallacy Is…

A logical fallacy happens when someone's argument is wrong due to flawed reasoning. A site created by Jesse Richardson, Andy Smith and Som Meaden warns, "They're like tricks or illusions of thought, and they're often very sneakily used… Don't be fooled!"

The site helps you identify and call out "dodgy logic wherever it may raise its ugly, incoherent head." When someone commits a logical fallacy, link them to the relevant fallacy to "school them in thinky awesomeness and win the intellectual affections of those who happen across your comment."

    Oh, man I need this. I teach this stuff (how not to do them, not how to do them…although with the argument papers I get, you'd think I did the opposite…grrrr)!
