LOL.....

When I realize I'm getting steamed, especially at insignificant stuff, it's time to log off and walk away.

Yeah, I let myself get soooo aggravated over those two threads, I could have literally, I mean literally brained those two guys I was arguing with... one of them started called me a woman disguised as a man... LOL.... I was good, I restrained myself.....

I can see now how "accidental" homicides can happen, if you let yourself go past a point.... LOL

Labeling & name calling are good indicators the intelligence level of the conversation has exceeded theirs.

Yeah, reminds me of the saying, 'If you have the facts, you pound the facts, if you don't have the facts, you pound the table.'

Another tactic people do when arguing is they take one tiny small part of it, and try and redirect to that part that may or may not be true, but it aids in supporting their argument.

I mean this in real life too, not just online in forums.....people call it redirect or some other term for it......

Yeah, that's the part I forget about, I assume that people on the forum are older, and I based my thought processes on that, when in reality, a lot of 18 or 19 yrs olds are here.....

I've had two 19 year olds (one currently)...I think they would rather put needles in their eyes then post on a forum like this...
