Logical Fallacy

This chapter on logical fallacies has opened my eyes.  I never realized the importance or how often they were actually used.  They are everywhere you go, whether you are watching TV or looking at the ads in your favorite magazine.  I can’t specifically remember a time that I have used one but, I’m pretty stubborn so I’m pretty sure I have used one to get my way.  My husband is just as stubborn and actually I do recall a time I wanted to buy a different car and he didn’t agree with the kind of car I wanted.  I was so annoyed that I said fine I’m keeping my old car then you can just continue to pay to fix it.  You see we had just put like $1000 into and it would probably been ok for quite a while but I was trying to guilt him into it.  I did get the car I wanted, but I’m not so sure it was the right decision.  Next time I won’t be so pushy.
