29th August 2008 ( Ad hominem - Tu quoque )

Well, today I have no class. So, today I went to meet my friends at campus to discuss about my Management subject's assignment. It was three of us. We met in front of library to discuss and finish up the assignment as we were keep postponing to finish it up. So, my friends A and B came. We sat on one of the table and start to take out our paper works. We were discussing normally. And suddenly A told B, " Hey B, you don't know how to wake up early ah? Because of you we are discussing late today and we are going to finish our work late..You ah.. Haiyoo..". And then B kept quiet for a while. He took a deep breath. He looked at A and said, " At least I'm not missing class every morning by waking up so late like you right? ". It was a funny situation. But I did not laugh in front of them. After that, I said, " Ok, ok. Enough of blaming each other, lets finish our work first". And then we continued our work.

Based on this smal story of mine today, we can relate this to our logical fallacies - "Tu quoque"(Look who's talking).
