Arguments I hate:
1. It doesn't matter.
It matters to me. If you don't care, why don't you just let me have my way?
2. Life's not fair.
Yes, and we must try hard to keep it that way. Any proposed course of action that could result in more justice in the world should be abandoned immediately.
3. You need to have faith.
I have faith that you are wrong.
4. The majority is on my side.
And the majority is always right. Witch hunts, slavery, and a belief in a flat earth are all fine and dandy.
5. When you're my age you'll see it my way.
When I'm your age I hope I have facts to back up my opinions, so I don't have to resort to this pitiful response.
