That's cute, I'd consider using it as a teaching resource, though I think it leaves off too many fallacies, and doesn't explain them thoroughly enough.

(i.e. "Slippery Slope" arguments may be relevant, if the other party cannot provide an adequate reason as to why the subsequent assumptions do not follow from the original premise.)

Thanks for posting though, I like using info-graphics to help students. I use a lot of the "grammar" series from the oatmeal! (For example: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/semicolon )

So once again I'm left with the classic Irish man's dilemma, do I eat the potato or do I let it ferment so I can drink it later?

Man!!! I do ALL of these ALL of the time! :/

Can someone give me an example of an argument that doesn't use any of these fallacies? Esp. "black and white", "anecdotal", "gambler's fallacy", "bandwagon", "genetic", "no true scotsman" and "appeal to nature"?

I swear to God, I can't think of any. :/
