1. Tone – “S/He’s just being mean, why can’t s/he say it in a nicer way”.
2. Taste – “It is subjective, who is s/he to say Joyce is a better writer than Dan Brown.”
3. Argumentum ad hominem - “S/he is just jealous/a snob/vindictive”.
4. Populism – “Lots of people like him/her, so you must be wrong about them”.
5.  Pedantry – “I think s/he was wrong about that thing, therefore every point is invalid!”

B-I-N-G-O!
