Eating massive servings of foods which are low-fat, low-sodium or low-cholesterol under the mistaken impression that you are making a healthy choice. Instigated initially in the late 1990s with the Snackwell line of low-fat cookies.
I just ate an entire pallet of reduced sodium Lays potato chips. So you know, my diet is still unbroken.
You just got chumped by the Snackwell Fallacy, dumb ass.
The belief that the odds of an event occurring increase after it has failed to occur a certain number of times.
This nickel has come up "heads" 5 times in a row; the next time it has to be a "tail."

Claiming that a law doesn't impede on constitutional rights because it only bans some of what certain amendments protect, not all.
"Our law only bans certain firearms, not all, so it doesn't break the Second Amendment."
"That's a Northam fallacy, now take off that black makeup, you look like Thomas D. Rice."
The genuine, redpilled belief that all chance relies on a binary outcome; a 50:50 chance that something either will or will not happen, and naught else. You either have it, or you don't.
"Nick is really out here exemplifying the Olomu Fallacy in AP Stat today. He said that he either would or wouldn't get head, it's that simple bro! Iffy uh"
The belief efforts to protect people from calamity will only lead to them being more careless, and bringing on more calamity.
This is a fallacy because it (a) assumes people can adjust personal risk to replicate an incomparable situation, and (b) it confusing risk-taking and risky behavior. "Risk-taking" is a neutral term that includes anything that increases risk in some way, such as operating a machine at a higher speed. This usually is done to get some other benefit. "Risky behavior" is foolish, feckless, or sloppy behavior that has no intrinsic utility to the person engaging in it.
An example of the curmudgeon's fallacy is the erroneous claim that safer cars make for careless drivers.

A fallacy referenced in fight discussions that means "it doesn’t mean it’s impossible to do something to someone Just because something can’t/hasn’t been proven otherwise."
" One Punch Man can't be beaten by Superman, because he always ONE PUNCHED to vicotry."
"That's a No Limits Fallacy. Superman has beaten much stronger things before, and it's possible there's something out their that can beat OPM."

When a guy lies about the size of his dick to someone he's trying to have sex with.
A: I heard Mark told his date that he was hung like a horse. She wouldn't stop laughing when the Magnum just kept falling off.
B: What a phallic fallacy!
