Totally agree! There are nice posters to remind you of logical fallacies, e.g.: yourlogicalfallacyis.com

I'm not a fan of calling logical fallacy. Many 'fallacies' are correct axioms for exploratory reasoning, or necessary shortcuts when dealing with the colossal complexity of the real world (as are emotions).

I've seen people abuse the term fallacy to just be a dick and flaunt their 'intellect' a bit too often, even erroneously.

This is so true! I am always trying to be positive and give feedback in a way that encourages improvement but it requires constant work and attention :)
