What type of appeal is used in the following psa slogan [get high. get stupid. get aids]

Pathos

Explanation:

Pathos is an emotional appeal, and it is the one used in this slogan. Logos refers to a logical appeal. This is not being used because the slogan does not explain why getting high, getting stupid and getting aids are necessarily connected. There is no explanation that employs arguments, evidence or facts. The slogan does not use ethos because it does not appeal to anyone's credibility or makes any moral claim. Instead, the slogan is an example of pathos because it uses a negative emotion to reach the audience. By putting such short and intense phrases together, the slogan tries to appeal to fear in order to be successful.

third person

explanation:

note the usage of names and pronouns, "james" & "the old man". this alone can confirm it as third person, as first person uses "i" and the like, while second person uses "you" and the like.
