Are you the type that will argue with a lamp post??? I know I am...it's a Texas thang

At what point do you realize that it doesn't do any good? Or do you realize it?

I try to control my arugmentative gene, all it does is stress me out and escalate the situation

I will engage in a discussion if I have an opinion. I usually realize I can’t change someone’s mind; however, as long as my point is considered – or I am at least heard – then I will debate for the sake of education. I also learn from other people’s opinions.

If my platform is falling upon deaf ears or the audience is completely obtuse to another point of view – then I cut out very quickly. It’s insanity to argue for the sake of arguing.

Being LOUDER doesn’t mean a person is right either.

when i think the other person is dumber than me

when it comes to my mom....I still haven't learned to just let it go

That's an entirely different can of worms!

No, but I once argued with a telephone pole. And then there was that utility box....

I use to try and convince a brick wall it had empathy, but I have since learned to stop. It is very healty to let go of such behaviors.

Now I just use the wall for banging my head against, like it was meant to be.

never done that.. however i sure did with my old work computer when it crashed all the time... i even did it outloud... outside! i called it all kinds of names!! it even made me cry! awwwww im glad i quit that job!

I don't have to argue cos I'm never wrong

I argue until the lamp post gives up and admits I'm right! I've even been known to threaten to knock his lights out if he doesn't just acquiesce.

A mule chastised me once... "And they say we're stubborn!" were his exact words.

I go to great lengths to stay out of conflict.....Been there done that.....Hate it. But when it is inevitable, lets rock.....

Exactly. IF and only if I have something to contribute to the conversation/ debate. If you want to argue with me about rocket fuel then I would be the lamp post.

wait...we have to contribute something? no wonder I'm doing it wrong

F U lamp post, you want a piece of me?

Ho I will walk away when I feel like I am talking to the wind. I can engage rather quickly and disengage just as quickly.

I have felt that I may not be right and yet I have a right to what I feel and think. Vice a Versa with another person.

Sometime I will engage a debate just for the sake of a debate.

has the lamp post ever won?

Never! I'll take it down with my truck

oh yeahhhhh! we gotta mr. perfect in the house! i strive to better myself and look at you as a role model.. however.. ill never get there
