Logical Fallacy Examples

I really loved this post in which I described logical fallacies or a incorrect reasoning in assuming a statement.

This was a really creative post in which we described hasty generalization, bandwagon, and false authority.

Bandwagon is when everyone jumps one thing because it's so popular and they think it's good because everyone's doing it when they don't even know when it is.

False authority is like going to someone for help in computer repair and they do not know so much about the thing I am asking them.

Hasty Generalization is almost like stereotyping. When you see a person partying all the time, you think that all people party all the time.
