Fallacies
Some fallacies are funny if you hear some of the examples and you have common sense. For example: False Dilemma Fallacy, "You're either with us or against us." Well what if you really don't care who you're with. Or when your parents tell you, "Either go to college or work in McDonalds." Second example: False Cause Fallacy, I washed my car and then it rained. Therefore, washing my car causes it to rain." Assuming because of coincidence that it always rains when you wash your car isn't 100% true. Maybe you really just have bad luck when it comes to your car. Or when you go out to eat at Wendy's for the first time ever and you feel sick to your stomach after that, that leaves you thinking Wendy's food is the worst. When really, maybe it's just you.
