Debaters, what type of people are we?

"People love to hate you, because you love to argue. The strange thing is you probably took that as a compliment. Why, I bet you've already got a witty comeback all lined up ready to throw right back at me.

What you don't realize is that your inane obsession with debating pisses everyone off. Whatever happened to us all trying to get along? I mean, you're so annoying people disagree with you for the damn sake of it! NOBODY cares about your abundant opinions. Trust me.

Believe it or not, but there's more to life than your expansive knowledge and sharp repertoire. When was the last time you showered? Brushed your teeth?

While you're up in Never never land, getting excited over future possibilities and your crazy theories, We have to put up with your awful stench. I can smell you from here.

 Your personality is ideal for that of a future lawyer and because everyone already hates you, you have nothing to lose."

 

 

This is one person's view of people that like to debate,  I found it on the internet sometime ago and copied it for such an occassion.

 

Is there any truth to these words?

I don't know if there's any truth to it or not. I just like presenting bizarre arguments that make people laugh, think or pissed ;)

Any truth? Yeah, probably. But not a lot...there are people who argue just for the sake of it and allow their personal relationships to suffer because of it. But there are also people who just enjoy discussing and debating things in a healthy way, without neglecting other aspects of life or hating those who disagree with them. There's nothing wrong with trying to expand your knowledge, and hearing and discussing different opinions about an idea is a good way to do that.

Yes there is truth to it. You find the weak minded and weak spirited would hate someone who has an opinion, and those who don't give a damn about anything would obviously think someone who does is a pain in the ass. Somethings are worth having an opinion about and somethings are worth arguing about. It's how most good decisions are made. A debate is just people voicing different opinions. If someone cant stand someone who has an opinion that is different to them, they are just a bull headed idiot.

I think that thinking hurts most people's head and so they put down those that do.

I agree with your argument, but find it strange that Henry Ford, the guy who agreed with Hitler on politics, would make this statement...>___>

As far quotes go; I have found that they don't always fit the character that said them, what is lacking is the context in which they said. Out of character for Henry Ford probably so.
