I didn’t know we’re in a match, Banks.
The behave as expected Bsnks is because when there is a disagreement you have a habit of making it more competitive than contemplative. You like to get personal as if you’re actually winning something.
Fine, whatever floats your boat.
I used the construct of a tennis match: point-game-set-match, as illustative of our going back and forth.
I didn't think it was a tought concept to grasp.
I pointed out your use of factual mistakes that you thought supported your position. But they didn't as they were not true.
And its not so much as winning, but rather effectively supporting a position with relevant facts as opposed to deflecting with an irrelvant personal story about you.
Knicks you were passed at the net.
Point taken.
I evidently lost a game I didn’t realize I was playing. Fine, you get the big gold plate or something.
The personal story was my response to the “The Rules” being cited as the only consideration,
Knicks Thanks for the plate.
The point was, game or no game, your arguments sucked.
You want a personal anecdote about rules and life?
I taught my kid to play tennis, and the general rule was all balls were in unless they were clearly out.
And she got reasonably good, and eventually gave me good games, (the brat would run me and my bad knees all over the court) and tried out for her HS team (and they were very good).
And during the tryouts/seeding process she used to tell me about a kid who would routinely call good balls out.
And i told her the rules still apply, play your best game, don't let the kid get in your head, and its not worth it to win a point and lose your dignity or sense of right and wrong.
Besides, the coachs knew too.
And she made the team, the other kid didn't.
Alls well.
Thanks again for the plate.
