When PE teachers are fat as fuck, although they are supposed to be teaching physical fitness.
Why is Mr. Johnson so fat?
Dude its the PE teacher fallacy.
When a person (typically a man) scores with a girl for the first time and then gets hung up over her after getting dumped by that girl. This is normally experienced by guys who kiss or fuck a girl for the first time and become emotionally invested, but end up getting their heart broken when the girl naturally moves on.
Chad: Hey Brad, have you seen Pete around anywhere? Haven't seen him since he got to 2nd base with that thot
Brad: Yeah she dumped his ass and moved on after she had her fun, but Pete's crying because he's hung up over her
Chad: Was she his first ever kiss?
Brad: Yeah man, looks like Pete's experiencing Clingy virgin's fallacy

The "Git Gud" Fallacy is when a clearly unfair scenario is written off as nothing more than a skill-gap. The fallacy takes place in cases where an individual is naturally better off (meaning they didn't work to be better off with skill or effort) than the person they're facing up against.
For example:
Individuals (A) and (B) aren't capable of having an income and have $0.00 to their name. Somehow, they become contenders in a yacht-buying contest:
Individual (A) receives no money to buy yachts, but the individual (B) receives 1-billion dollars - no strings attached - to spend on the contest...
Who will have to exert more effort to win: Person (A) with no money, or person (B) with 1-billion dollars?
If you think this sounds unfair, then that's the point.
Now, if someone were to say something like, "Well, person (A) should have made better financial decisions so they could beat person (B)," or "Person (A) should've done this, that, or the other thing," that someone would not only be victim blaming, but they would be ignoring the clearly unfair situation and essentially telling the unfortunate person to "GiT GuD," rather than acknowledging that the match-up was never fair in the first place.
"That character is so OP."
"Nah, you just have to learn to fight against them. They're a noob-destroyer."
"If it takes THAT much more effort and skill to learn to fight against THEM SPECIFICALLY, and no other character takes that much concentration to counter, then don't you think they're just OP?
"Bruhhh, lol... just git gud."
"Don't fall for the Git Gud Fallacy..."
(Oh, and not to get too philosophical, but that gif below is a good example of this fallacy because Spongebob is ironically flexing "git gud" into the muscles he didn't work for.)

A misconception that POC have about white people's food being bland due to what's served to them by white people in prison.
This nog thinks white people just walk around eating bologna sandwiches all day. That's the prison food fallacy for you

The grievance of the Wii having no "hardcore" video games while concurrently complaining about such games being published for the Wii.
"People complain about the Wii not having any hardcore games, then complain when a good hardcore game comes out for it. Just another example of the Wii hardcore fallacy."

Employing the Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy in an attempt to make a point unrelated to the topic at hand.
Bro, I win, I totally shot that shark.
Dude, we're hunting rabbits, where the fuck did you find a shark? You have just attempted to use the Texas Sharkshooter Fallacy.
Broken rung fallacy.
'This rung is broken... therefore I must climb higher up the ladder!'
When true logic is going back to ground level and starting everything over the right way.
This occurs when someone is so focused on a goal - they push for said goal passed the point of reason.
Usually accompanied with rhetoric such as "there's no going back!" and "if you want to make an omelette, you've got to break some eggs!" - to eliminate 'going back to ground level' as an option.
The ladder always collapses. The farther they've pushed - the more dangerous the crash back down.
Example 1: "Workers need the cheaper goods" is a broken rung fallacy. If the jobs aren't sent over seas in the first place - they can afford the better goods.
Example 2: "Millions of women's lives would be ruined without abortions" is a broken rung fallacy. If our society doesn't encourage promiscuity in the first place - there isn't millions of women pregnant out of wedlock, in the first place.
Example 3: "Neither of us knew our fathers - so we're taking our mother's names" is a broken rung fallacy. Guaranteed both come from nontraditional families - and going farther down this path is just ensuring more broken homes.
