Labeling and mislabeling
A form of overgeneralization; attributing a person's actions to their character instead of to an attribute. Rather than assuming the behaviour to be accidental or otherwise extrinsic, one assigns a label to someone or something that is based on the inferred character of that person or thing.
i prefer baseball over football because football is pointless

Labeling and mislabeling
A form of overgeneralization; attributing a person's actions to their character instead of to an attribute. Rather than assuming the behaviour to be accidental or otherwise extrinsic, one assigns a label to someone or something that is based on the inferred character of that person or thing.
I completely bombed the singer tryouts the other day. I can't sing to save my life.

Filtering distortions occur when an individual dwells only on the negative details of a situation and filters out the positive aspects.
I live in California, but i wish I lived in another state instead. California is such a crappy place to be in, I'd rather live in Maryland where the weather isn't bipolar

A form of overgeneralization; attributing a person's actions to their character instead of to an attribute. Rather than assuming the behaviour to be accidental or otherwise extrinsic, one assigns a label to someone or something that is based on the inferred character of that person or thing.
