appeal to emotion

So I must say this is probably one of my favorite chapters because Epstein is able to state what needs to be said and move on. No more searching through words to find out what it is he is hoping to get across to students who read his books. I do love the appealing to emotion chapter because it lays out all of the different way that people encounter and use others emotions. I have already discussed the appeal to fear as being one of my least favorite because of how people use the fear in someone in order to get their support; I think it is way too twisted. However one appeal that I find interesting would be the feel good argument. I think this is something as college students that we often times feel is necessary or well deserved way of handling situations. However we all know how those conversations would most likely play out, no so well. However the idea that we use the appeal to feel good about ourselves is at least a positive way of making people see another side to an argument.  Trust me if the world worked this way, we would all be dumb and crazy because we weaseled out of situations that eventually benefitted us.
