pretty funny.

I do pride myself on knowing my logical fallacies, though. It's kind of annoying when people use them against me, because I know that they have no real weight but they don't think so. Maybe I should print this book out and give it to people in need.

:) That's a good idea. Printing the book and give it to people. HAHAH!

It's not easy to understand logical fallacies, or noticing we're committing them, in the beginning. The mind is made of habits. And to change it to a different point of view is a difficult challenge for most people.
