A Master List Of Logical Fallacies
The list will be incomplete without the local parlance "Shey o Mọ age mi ni?",
loosely translated meaning:
"Are you aware of my age at all?"

Implying:
"Don't argue with me, you aren't old enough to"

Or literally:
"Shut the Bleep up, who is your mate here"

The following is close:

94. Paternalism: A serious fallacy of ethos, arbitrarily tut-tutting, dismissing or ignoring another's arguments or concerns as "childish" or "immature;" taking a condescending attitude of superiority toward opposing standpoints or toward opponents themselves. E.g., "Your argument against the war is so infantile. Try approaching the issue like an adult for a change," "I don't argue with children," or "Somebody has to be the grownup in the room, and it might as well be me. Here's why you're wrong..." Also refers to the sexist fallacy of dismissing a woman's argument because she is a woman, e.g., "Oh, it must be that time of the month, eh?" See also "Ad Hominem Argument" and "Tone Policing."
