"Ronny is in an debate and resorts to a 'straw man' fallacy. His opponent points out his use of the straw man and wins the debate. In a later debate, Ronny, having lost the previous debate after his opponent accused him of using a 'straw man' fallacy, decides that he too will simply accuse his opponent of using a 'straw man' tactic and thereby win.
