There's the fallacy ad fallacium -- the fallacious idea that if an proposition is supported by fallacious arguments, it must be false. Then there's logical fallacies that work pretty well in real life, such as the old standby ad hominem (if an asshole supports the idea it must be stupid) and some forms of the slippery slope (if you give them an inch they'll take a mile). Also the fallacy ad fellatium, which has something to do with Bill Clinton.

Don't forget the fallacy ad rectum.
Someone who is cleary talking out of their ass.

Obfuscating your quodlibet via magniloquent language peppering one's causeries is poor form I agree.

Rules give life value and meaning.
Rules let us learn from other than our own experiences.
