The Argument from Personal Ignorance and The Argument from Personal Incredulity.
Otherwise known as
"I have no idea what you are talking about; therefore, it is wrong"
and
"I don't believe it (because I don't like it); therefore, it is wrong"
I know many people who have honed these ideas into the finest of the human arts and who practice them on a daily basis.
