Illogical fallacies

I think the Raffles Philosophy Course is very much off course. We are learning pretty useless things now such as different ruling systems (please that's soooo SS), whatever we did last term seems irrelevant (must be so irrelevant that I can't remember) and logical fallacies last year. Probably Eastern Philosophy next term! Well that's all they'll ever teach! All these trash are so unappealing.. and so out-of-date. Let me tell you what real philosophy is about. Something that you will never learn under Kennet Low or any respected philosopher.

Because what you are going to learn, is beyond any respected philosopher. And Kennet Low. Okay granted he might be a respected philosopher - but never mind that - today we will learn ILLOGICAL FALLACIES. As you can see, it's the opposite of logical fallacies. Because the world is made up of many illogical people anyway, it only makes sense to learn some illogical fallacies. There are quite a few of them, so sit up, read and have fun.

1. Dickto Simpliciter - To simplify everything to dirty thoughts
Example: "Oh.. honey stop it stop it!!" - Lincoln Luk, on Drama Feste night

2. Post Coc - To publish rubbish on a blog / To bang your cock against the post
Example: "xD" - Unknown, on his blog

OR Example2: "Ouch!" - Zhang Kahn, upon banging his cock against the post, which he claims only smart people are fit enough to do that

3. Hasty Gene-ralisation - To classify someone as a Gene (NOT GENETIC) too quickly / to insult someone gravely when the occasion does not call for it
Example: "WTF! You cheated! You bloody ***!" - Danny, during class when cheating is spotted

4. Slippery Slope (on hair) - To start predicting an undesirable chain of events just because someone starts to get suspicious
Example: "Oh shit. *** didn't gel his hair today, which means he suspects us of laughing at him. That means he might try to temper us!!" - Anonymous, when someone didn't gel his hair

5. False Anal-ogy - To compare two events which does not link up to each other
Example: "I did not cheat for the test. I did well for it." - ***, after getting back test results

OR Example2: "I like Oven. Oven likes me." - *** again

6. Poisoning The Class - To use traits of *** and thus in turn making the class a bad place
Example: "Barney! You cheated!" - Ming Sing, highlighting the point that Barney is indeed poisoning the class

OR Example2: "F*** OFF B****!" - Adnaan, in his temper, did not realise that he was poisoning the class by imitating a certain person's bad behaviour

OR Example3: "Look at my fins!" Clemens, after gelling his hair like some mad pineapple, was again poisoning the class with his super bad behaviour

This is real life philosophy, man! Who needs to learn all the nonsense in school?
