There are a few that I don't like either. Like the OP I don't care for appeal to emotion either, and for similiar reasons. I also don't like strawmen. But I especially don't like Appeal to Religion and Appeal to Tradition. The idea that because something is religious or traditional that it shouldn't be questioned really rubs me the wrong way. When someone uses religion for an argument I'm tempted to respond as follows: "Prove to me that god exists, and that what you claim he wants is what he actually wants, using the scientific method."
