Two gems from Results of Why I'm Stupid:
6. Hallucinate entirely different points. For example, if someone says apples grow on trees, accuse him of saying snakes have arms and then point out how stupid that is.
7. Use the intellectual laziness card. For example, if someone says that ice is cold, recommend that he take graduate courses in chemistry and meteorology before jumping to stupid conclusions that display a complete ignorance of the complexity of ice.
In addition, be sure to check out Dan Drasin's Zen . . . And the Art of Debunkery and my own list of helpful hints for Face on Mars critics.
