Bo Bennett's site Logically Fallacious provides dialogues for arguments that Bennett considers to be legitimate fallacies and not pseudo-fallacies.
Here are two examples he provides for the Ad Hominem logical fallacy:
My opponent suggests that lowering taxes will be a good idea -- this is coming from a woman who eats a pint of Ben and Jerry’s each night!
Tony wants us to believe that the origin of life was an “accident”. Tony is a godless SOB who has spent more time in jail than in church, so the only information we should consider from him is the best way to make license plates.
Explanations are provided for the examples. Where appropriate exceptions and tips are also offered for these examples.
For the law of excluded middle see False Dilemma.

For instance, the philosopher Roger Scruton describes a pseudo-philosophical book as follows: "Abundant footnotes, referring to out-of-the-way works in political theory, anthropology, biology, musicology, particle physics, etc., serve further to intimidate the reader, and the undergraduate, faced with the resulting text at the top of his reading list, is given no alternative but to parrot its terms….5"

You can google this to find plenty of lists. Here's one: https://www.logicalfallacies.org/ Also, I think Wikipedia has a big list. But, as you say you are new to philosophy, let me just point out that most folks who are serious about philosophy just don't care much about this taxonomy of bad arguments. This whole interest in named logical fallacies is most heavily located in internet arguments or debate-bro culture. A more productive path would be to learn about valid arguments. When you have this knowledge, you will recognize logical fallacies not by positive identification ("you've committed post hoc, ergo propter hoc") but rather by the fact that the proposed argument simply doesn't demonstrate what it claims to. I don't know the names of almost any of these fallacies and will never bother to learn; this in no way impedes my ability to make good arguments and recognize poor ones. Another issue with a focus on informal fallacies is that the presence of such fallacies don't necessarily invalidate the argument. If in the middle of a valid argument I observe that my interlocutor is an asshole, that doesn't invalidate the argument. Despite the fact that I've made an ad hominem attack, my argument isn't necessarily resting on that claim. My claim of asshole-ness may just be flavor-text, but may not affect the logical mechanics.

Thanks OP. Because what we really need is more people on reddit who think they dealt a knockout blow in an argument by jumping up and down and shouting STRAWMAN or AD HOMINEM.

YSK that if you have to point out a logical fallacy, you're well on your way to lose that argument. You can't just say "FALLACY, THEREFORE I WIN". They're there to help you identify flaws in your opponent's logic and form an effective counter.

Below are definitions of our five logical fallacies from these institutions, and we have also included links to some YouTube videos that explain each of these fallacies in more detail. The ad hominem fallacy involves bringing negative aspects of an arguer, or their situation, to bear on the view they are advancing. Example: Thompson’s proposal for the wetlands may safely be rejected because last year she was arrested for hunting without a license.
