Makuta of Time Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Bandwagon - The pinnacle and most common logical fallacy. Oh how I love it when we use it here in Mafia. Sad that we have to wait till Monday for the scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnmad Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I think the bandwagon is more of a negative group behavior than it is a logical fallacy. You could, however, say that it is often begun with a logical fallacy. *Snaps fingers* 3 Avatar by Brickeens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chro Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The bandwagon argument (I did this because everyone else did) is a logical fallacy. The bandwagon itself is a group behavior. 4 save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portalfig Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Woo psych classes! *happehdance* I do believe Chro is right, although I would state it in a little different way, that "This thing is right because everyone says it is" as the logical fallacy.

fishers64 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 You really shouldn't humor a complete newbie's reasoning at this. But I guess there's nothing that can be done.

Quisoves Potoo Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 What's wrong with a shrug?Apparently, a shrug can be considered rude, though I've never found it offensive (and I don't think most of society minds such a gesture.) But that's neither here nor there. =P The emoticon in question disturbs me. Aside from the obvious wrongness of a smiley face with limbs, its expression is one of confusion and despair. I don't like looking at such a miserable thing. And actually, it's not from S&T. But where it is truly from can never be revealed. Regardless of its origins (I shan't be surprised if it originates from some extra-terrestrial, elemental realm of air) I rarely see it used outside of S&T (where it sees regular use,) so I think I can safely refer to subforum #29 as its home, albeit an adopted one. Whatever it is, it's not nearly as absurd as this (no I'm not looking for every opportunity to use this emoticon what on earth are you talking about) But is wonderful! It is full of bon vivant , of unmitigated cheer. It emits ethereal wisdom, the voices of untold ages echoing from its every fiber (or whatever equivalent it has.)

fishers64 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The emoticon in question disturbs me. Aside from the obvious wrongness of a smiley face with limbs, its expression is one of confusion and despair. I don't like looking at such a miserable thing.I'm not sure how you get confusion and despair out of that. The mild curve of the mouth and the upward slant of the eyes indicate a relaxed expression. That's what that emote means - emotional ambivalence, not being attached to a particular idea or seeking to control/influence the other person/people's response. As opposed to , with suggests true mental uncertainty. I dislike that one because I'm always confident and certain of myself unless I say otherwise, but if I say otherwise, I prefer stating why I'm uncertain. It makes my life easier. And actually, it's not from S&T.

Trijhak Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 It's representative of how we always think we're about to finish a game when suddenly there's a huge twist and it turns out you need to kill three more people instead of one. I never really understood emoticons. Except for how weird they were, and how terrible comedies loved to use them back in the day about seven or eight years ago. Guilty of that myself. I think the ones Ehks found take the cake though, if there were a cake to be taken. also, Chro, ...the alien is what a ninja looks like without the mask, clearly. While we're talking, I'd like to ask a question we should all be asking: Why are discussing emoticons? 6 On Bota Magna, everything is about to fall apart.

fishers64 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Because QP. Apparently that particular being is enchanted with the idea of me as a player of a Mafia game and thinks talking to me is just the cats' pajamas. I blame Forum 29. what in the name of hapori tohu Even weirder, the code for that emote is How does that get that get that? Cue forum non-sequitor.
