Yeah arguing on the Internet is a waste of time which is why I don't do it much anymore unless I feel very strongly that someone's reply to my comment needs to be disputed.
Most of the time I make my point then don't bother responding to any replies. It's much more pleasant to respond when it's you're not arguing, just discussing something interesting.
Arguing for something you believe in is a thankless job, considering it only changes opinions once every twenty five times, and gets you flak, infinite arguements or insults the other Twenty four times
No it isn’t.
!!! Wrong! Ths user is INCORRECT on the INTERNET. !!!!
You’re obviously a CAPITALIST
+1 for the reference.
Sometimes I commit to online arguments to vent out frustration from irl problems. "The worst that could happen is I get banned."
