Find ten examples of different logical fallacies. You can search through social media, mainstream news, comics, etc... You can also create examples yourself. Please do not use political logical fallacies, i. e. NO POLITICS ALLOWED.
Do not use "examples" of logical fallacies. You are to find, identify or create the examples on your own.
Describe and explain how each logical fallacy is present in your example.
And, finally, for each of your examples, explain how you would “cure” this logical fallacy by pointing out the logical error in the fallacy and by addressing what a logical and reasonable argument would look like, instead.

For example:
Bandwagon fallacy: An argument is only appealing because of its growing popularity. For example, you are being asked to accept an argument based on peer pressure.

Example: Hey, everyone else is cheering for the Cowboys, so let’s do it too!

Cure: It is improbable that “everyone” is cheering for the same team. If you prefer a different team, don’t let others coerce you into doing or thinking their way because it is critical that one thinks for oneself.

Read the excerpt from dominique’s personal narrative. tired of waiting for the bus, which was late for the fifth day in a row, i sat leafing through an old magazine i had stuffed in my purse the previous night. it was terribly warm for a september afternoon, and the sun cast fleeting shadows on the bus stop sign with each car that passed. i wondered when the weather would get cooler and when the new bus driver would start arriving on time. it was about then that i first noticed the apparent agitation of the man sitting next to me. finally, the bus arrived and ambled to a gradual stop directly in front of the restless man. the doors widened, and the bus driver greeted the man with his usual banter in his usual monotone. "good afternoon. how are you today? ” when writing the next few lines of dialogue, dominique should be certain that the lines provide clues about what will happen later on in the narrative. contain made-up details that make the story more exciting. include everyday language that seems real and natural. use precise words that make both men sound educated.
