Arguments - who likes/hates them.

[The Buddha]

OK Yea ...
I am not talking about pot stirring political pot boilers ... which soon escalate into the online version of a street fight ... comming to think of it ... I prefer the street version of the street fight over the online version ... atleast you get to use up some of that pent up frustration in the street version ... Just argue to get views from people and get your own views heard ...
So In case you've been living under a rock (or under your GS) ... I love them ... light hearted arguments ... yea like breathing. I doubt I can even be friends with anyone who I cannot argue with, the overly thin skinned super sensitive types soon get to be real PITA's ... cos they aren't shy about hurling insults I have noticed, just sensitive to taking them ... so who feels what ... likes them ... hates them ... whatever ...
Cool.
Srinath.

So In case you've been living under a rock (or under your GS) ... I love them ... light hearted arguments ... yea like breathing.

I couldn't disagree with you more on this point.

[Roadstergal]

M:   Ah. I'd like to have an argument, please.
R:    Certainly sir. Have you been here before?
M:   No, I haven't, this is my first time.
R:     I see. Well, do you want to have just one argument, or were you thinking of taking a course?
M:   Well, what is the cost?
R:    Well, It's one pound for a five minute argument, but only eight pounds for a course of ten.
M:   Well, I think it would be best if I perhaps started off with just the one and then see how it goes.
R:     Fine. Well, I'll see who's free at the moment.
Pause
R:    Mr. DeBakey's free, but he's a little bit conciliatory.
Ahh yes, Try Mr. Barnard; room 12.
M:    Thank you.

(Walks down the hall. Opens door.)

Q:   WHAT DO YOU WANT?
M:   Well, I was told outside that...
Q:   Don't give me that, you snotty-faced heap of parrot droppings!
M:   What?
Q:   Shut your festering gob, you tit! Your type really makes me puke, you vacuous, coffee-nosed, maloderous pervert!!!
M:   Look, I CAME HERE FOR AN ARGUMENT, I'm not going to just stand...!!
Q:   OH, oh I'm sorry, but this is abuse.
M:   Oh, I see, well, that explains it.
Q:   Ah yes, you want room 12A, Just along the corridor.
M:   Oh, Thank you very much. Sorry.
Q:   Not at all.
M:   Thank You.
(Under his breath) Stupid git!!

(Walk down the corridor)
M: (Knock)
A:   Come in.
M:   Ah, Is this the right room for an argument?
A:   I told you once.
M:   No you haven't.
A:   Yes I have.
M:   When?
A:    Just now.
M:   No you didn't.
A:   Yes I did.
M:  You didn't
A:   I did!
M:  You didn't!
A:   I'm telling you I did!
M:  You did not!!
A:   Oh, I'm sorry, just one moment. Is this a five minute argument or the full half hour?
M:  Oh, just the five minutes.
A:   Ah, thank you. Anyway, I did.
M:  You most certainly did not.
A:   Look, let's get this thing clear; I quite definitely told you.
M:  No you did not.
A:   Yes I did.
M:   No you didn't.
A:   Yes I did.
M:   No you didn't.
A:   Yes I did.
M:   No you didn't.
A:   Yes I did.
M:  You didn't.
A:   Did.
M:  Oh look, this isn't an argument.
A:   Yes it is.
M:   No it isn't. It's just contradiction.
A:   No it isn't.
M:  It is!
A:   It is not.
M:  Look, you just contradicted me.
A:   I did not.
M:  Oh you did!!
A:   No, no, no.
M:  You did just then.
A:   Nonsense!
M:  Oh, this is futile!
A:   No it isn't.
M:  I came here for a good argument.
A:   No you didn't; no, you came here for an argument.
M:  An argument isn't just contradiction.
A:   It can be.
M:  No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
A:   No it isn't.
M:  Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
A:   Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
M:  Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
A:   Yes it is!
M:   No it isn't!

A:   Yes it is!
M:  Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.
(short pause)
A:  No it isn't.
M:  It is.
A:  Not at all.
M:  Now look.
A: (Rings bell)  Good Morning.
M:  What?
A:   That's it. Good morning.
M:   I was just getting interested.
A:   Sorry, the five minutes is up.
M:  That was never five minutes!
A:   I'm afraid it was.
M:  It wasn't.
Pause
A:   I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed to argue anymore.
M:  What?!
A:   If you want me to go on arguing, you'll have to pay for another five minutes.
M:  Yes, but that was never five minutes, just now. Oh come on!
A:  (Hums)
M:  Look, this is ridiculous.
A:   I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed to argue unless you've paid!
M:  Oh, all right.
(pays money)
A:   Thank you.
short pause
M:  Well?
A:   Well what?
M:   That wasn't really five minutes, just now.
A:    I told you, I'm not allowed to argue unless you've paid.
M:   I just paid!
A:   No you didn't.
M:   I DID!
A:   No you didn't.
M:  Look, I don't want to argue about that.
A:  Well, you didn't pay.
M:  Aha. If I didn't pay, why are you arguing? I Got you!
A:   No you haven't.
M:  Yes I have. If you're arguing, I must have paid.
A:   Not necessarily. I could be arguing in my spare time.
M:  Oh I've had enough of this.
A:   No you haven't.
M:  Oh Shut up.

(Walks down the stairs. Opens door.)

M:  I want to complain.
C:  You want to complain! Look at these shoes. I've only had them three weeks and the heels are worn right through.
M:  No, I want to complain about...
C:   If you complain nothing happens, you might as well not bother.
M:  Oh!
C:   Oh my back hurts, it's not a very fine day and I'm sick and tired of this office.


(Slams door. walks down corridor, opens next door.)

M:  Hello, I want to... Ooooh!
H:   No, no, no. Hold your head like this, then go Waaah. Try it again.
M:  uuuwwhh!!
H:   Better, Better, but Waah, Waah! Put your hand there.
M:  No.
H:   Now..
M:  Waaaaah!!!
H:   Good, Good! That's it.
M:  Stop hitting me!!
H:  What?
M:  Stop hitting me!!
H:   Stop hitting you?
M:  Yes!
H:   Why did you come in here then?
M:   I wanted to complain.
H:   Oh no, that's next door. It's being-hit-on-the-head lessons in here.
M:  What a stupid concept.

[RVertigo]

I enjoy arguing when there's a point...  When you spend hours arguing with someone that has their head in their ass and refuses to hear a single word you say, it's totally pointless...  Kinda like arguing on the Internet. :nana:

<50 Giga bytes of text snipped>
M:  What a stupid concept.

OK please tell me you found that somewhere on the net and cut pasted it ... else we need to find you a cat, or a BF or a busted bike or maybe tell your boss and get you working in the basement with no lights and no electricity ... That was painful to read ... much less type ...
Cool.
Srinath.

[Roadstergal]

That was painful to read ... much less type ...

"No, it wasn't!"
"Yes, it was!"

Yep, I found it on the 'net and pasted it.  Don't go giving my boss any ideas.  My apartment doesn't allow cats, but if you want to provide me with a BF or a busted bike anyway, I won't complain...

[The Buddha]

Allright .... One Hottie BF with busted bike comming up ... I have your address from before ... so watch for a large crate ... where was that crate URL from earlier today ... that Crate ... made to hold like 800 lbs ... yea ... that. The usual shipping protocol - food and water in the crate right ... OK ... Excuse me I gotta go to the motorcycle shop now ...
Cool.
Srinath.

[Roadstergal]

:lol:  

[indestructibleman]

i could be persuaded to break my bike.

[The Buddha]

OK we are all backwards ... the thread about Booty turns into a argument ... and nary a booty in 8 pages, the thread about arguments turns into a booty call ... what's wrong with you people ...  :lol:  ... yea ... look who's talking ... OK ...
Cool.
Srinath.

[scratch]

I love Monty Python.

I hate arguements, unless I'm right, but really I'm a timid, unconfrontational type of guy (but, then again, I'm a backstabbin' SOB, but I try not to be :mrgreen: ).

By the way, the only pupose of speech is to convince. It's up to the listener what they want to believe.

Cool.

[Phaedrus]

I can't say I like or dislike them. I don't go looking for'em, but I am not much one to know enough to back down either. I've been called a cocky ass one more twice, but I've also been called one of thw sweetest guys you could meet. I guess it all depends  

As for arguing on the Internet, I don't see it any different than in person. I say pretty much the same things I'd say in person, and the fact of life is, sometimes people disagree.  :dunno:  The trick is, not to take things personally and hold grudges. Attack the issues, not the people  

[pandy]

What's that saying on BARF...oh yes....
