Marking tests in applied logic (see the Mildly Irritating thread).

Seriously, kid, the question asked you to read and analyse a bunch of bad arguments relating to UFOs and alien abductions. You might point out the argument from absent evidence, the appeal to ignorance, the ad hominem, the anecdotal evidence, the generalisation based on a small and biased sample. Why the #%&$ did you spend the whole section writing about dinosaurs???
