parallel logic

Running two arguments side by side under different and contradictory rule sets. Especially, creating an analogy and denying that others make conclusions between them.

P1: I go through harassment from the leaders of this organization just as the Jews went through harassment from Nazi officers.
P2: You haven't as much as been placed under surveillance, let alone that kind of duress.
P1: I'm not comparing the two! I'm using parallel logic.

Parallel Chatting

The phenomena that occurs when an online chat morphs into two parallel conversations, usually as a result of one person continuing a conversation without realizing that the other person has changed the subject.

Person A: Yeah its funny how beer and weed can make you feel like you're peeing when combined.
Person A: Anyway, what's your favorite flavor of cotton candy?
Person B: Yeah this one time I smoked a spliff and downed a 40, and it felt like Niagara falls down there .
Person B: I'd have to say blue.
Person A: Hahaha! and agreed.
Person B: I like how you resolved our parallel chatting.

Person B: Sure, but you've gotta show me what you drew at the end of it!
