Pop quiz, hotshot!
You're losing an argument. You know you're going to lose. Your reasoning is full of holes and your opponent seems to have all the right answers.

What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO?

Punch them right in the balls.
If it's a woman, obviously you act the gentleman and give them a hearty backhanded slap.

I'd like to say:

What I'd actually do:
Try to change the subject to something I'm in the right about, failing that lie.

Start countering their facts with
"if that's what YOU want to believe." Be smug about it too. With practice you can get them to totally lose their rag - at which point, of course, you've won.

Point out that whatever they are arguing for
is something that Hitler stood for.

that's an autolose for any argument.

As a woman
You're not bound by any form of logic that actually makes sense in the real world!


I really don't get the whole female logic thing
(Herr Doktor Lemminge Is bored, so cheer me up!, Wed 8 Jul 2009, 10:25, Reply)

female logic
it's an oxymoron, like military intelligence or scottish cuisine.
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 8 Jul 2009, 10:53, Reply)

How dare you
Scottish cuisine is rather refined, and very tasty.

Just not a lot of the crap like deep fried anything!

My favourite
is when the person becomes so animated that they try and butt in I assertively state "I've shown you the courtesy of listening to your points now I'd be obliged if you would do likewise".

Moral high ground claimed ftw.

A drunken error
was to argue that "You're only being argumentative because you got the fucking painters in and you're on a blob strop!".
(SpunkyMcSpunkbubble Diddled your nubbin on, Wed 8 Jul 2009, 10:28, Reply)

Suddenly start arguing a series of completely different points
Which have nothing to do with the original argument, and which I know I am sure to win.

Eventually, the argument gets so convoluted, the other person can't actually remember what the original problem was, thus securing victory in my favour.
