If calling someone out for being rude is an ad hominem attack (it isn't), then calling somebody out for using ad hominem attacks is a 'argument from fallacy' fallacy (it isn't, for similar reasons).
(both are not applicable here because nobody basing their arguments on them)

- mbyrne 16y agoAs far as the "dealing it out and not taking it," I only expressed my personal opinion about a subject, I wasn't attacking anyone personally, as others, in my opinion, did to me. Having said that, I never thought I was "dealing it out" to anyone personally to begin with, so I wanted to apologize to anyone who was offended by anything I said.
