Lesson #1-Getting into arguments

TODAY IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY, NOW WATCH SOMEONE FUCK IT UP.

Everyone gets into an argument once in a while. It happens to everyone including those very very very nice people. There’s always a conflict and disagreement. I don’t mind that kind arguments. As long as people use appropriate language with clear subject, I’m ok with it. Those are called professional arguments and debates.

But have you ever experience when suddenly a random person who don’t even know you started to blurb out shit and both of you ended up in a meaningless argument. Seriously, it happens. Even, me. Now I’m going to focus on meaningless arguments.

YOU ARE NOT A BEAUTIFUL UNIQUE SNOWFLAKE, YOU ARE THE SAME DECAYING MATTER AS EVERYONE ELSE

Sometimes the opponent started to say something good about themselves. Oh and also the “have you look yourself in the mirror?” phrase doesn’t work anymore. Don’t use it. It’ll make the opponent feel a lot better about themselves.

  1. Always remember the part (sentence, words, actions etc) which triggered an upcoming argument. You can use that as an alibi who started first.
  2. Lets hope that there’s a witness on your side.
  3. If you’re in an online chatting, copy the whole conversation as an evidence to MS Word or any type of writing program.
  4. If people assume that you’ve edited the conversation, I guess screen shot is the next option.
  5. Is the person smart? How old is the person? Because age also affects everything.

    IF YOU CAN’T DAZZLE THE WORLD WITH YOUR KNOWLEDGE, BAFFLE THE WORLD WITH YOUR BULLSHIT

    Let’s say your opponent is an uneducated person or a 9 nine year-old child. No matter how logic your statement is, you’ll never get a good answer . Instead, they’ll just shout out some shits irrelevant to the subject and also does not make sense. So it’s best to fight bullshit with bullshit.

  6. Never end the argument like this “SHUT UP”, “FINE”, “WHATEVER”. It’ll never end well, seriously and personally those words tick me off.
  7. Appear calm, seriously, when you show your emotions, things won’t go well.
  8. If you’re in a forum war, if the argument isn’t worth your time (e.g. if someone just said to you that your picture sucks), it’s best to get out of the thread.

Because:-

After a long meaningless argument, you started to run out of spit and you’re tired. You realised that WHAT’S HIS PROBLEM?

  1. they’re jealous of something
  2. they wanna be fukin high and mighty
  3. and the most common one is because they’re bored

These reasons have no solution. It is endless. So it’s best to step away from the argument and ignore the person.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE THE REASON PEOPLE LIKE ME NEED MEDICATION

In the end, no one will admit their lost. When you make the other person angry, that doesn’t mean you have won. That’s the worst thing about meaningless and childish argument. It is also not wise to make an argument with your best friend over the silliest things because it affects your school life. Would you be comfortable when you ex-best friend stare at you when you get to class? There’s more than that and it’s a lot worse.

And so, my solution is to always think that the other person isn’t worth your time and they’re the same as me (a tiny speck of dust living in a huge universe) because most people has a hard time letting down their emotion and they take it seriously.

NOTE: These are based on my experience and you’ll learn nothing from it.
