Black and white fallacy:  "That's either Leonard, or a decent human being."

Fallacy of argumentum ad hominem:  "Nothing Leonard says should be believed, because he is an asshole."

Fallacy of argumentum ad misericordiam:  "You have to give me a ride home, because otherwise I will have to sit next to Leonard on the bus."

Fallacy of argumentum ad verecundiam:  "I believe that Leonard is a jerkoff, because Mayor Daley held a press conference to announce it."

Fallacy of accent:  "I can't say too many good things about Leonard."

Fallacy of a dicto simpliciter ad dictum secundum quid:  "It is a general truth that no one should talk to Leonard, because he is a lying scumbag.  Therefore, no one should listen to him if he tells them their house is on fire."

Fallacy of begging the question:  "Leonard causes parties to be ruined, because the best parties are the ones without Leonard in attendance."

Fallacy of the loaded question:  "Has Leonard stopped beating his wife?"

Fallacy of composition:  "Taken collectively, Leonard is a schmuck; therefore, each cell in Leonard's body must possess the quality of schmuckitude."

Fallacy of consensus gentium:  "Leonard must be a shitbag, because all  human cultures have had some conception of Leonard's shibaggery."

Fallacy of a dicto secundum quid ad dictum simpliciter:   "I have found it efficacious in warding off Leonard to burn him in the eye with a cigarette; therefore, people in general should burn Leonard in the eye with cigarettes."

Fallacy of division:  "All places in which Leonard exists are bad places; therefore, all people who live in places where Leonard lives must be bad people."

Fallacy of equivocation:  "The end of a thing is its perfection; death will be the end of Leonard; therefore, Leonard will achieve perfection upon his death."

Fallacy of noncausa pro causa:  "Leonard's arrival caused me to vomit."

Fallacy of post hoc ergo propter hoc:  "Leonard called me on the phone to invite me to one of his gay-ass readings.  Ten minutes later my house was crushed by a meteorite.  Leonard's phone call was the cause of the destruction of my house."

Fallacy of ingoration elenchi:  "Leonard is an idiot.  Therefore, give me five dollars."
