Every time I hear someone say ‘eh’ in a questioning tone or to mean ‘um actually’ I lose my shit. Or even just to play something down.
Like I literally come to hate the person instantly. Its a very strong feeling on a very small sound.
Instant downvotes if I see it on Lemmy too. HATE IT.
How about all y’all?
“Let’s agree to disagree”
This solves nothing, it just equates to a polite way of saying I’m done talking to you.
What do you do if you realise you’re just arguing in circles and nothing will be solved by continuing discussing that topic?
what is the solution? them conceding that you are correct?
But there are some of us who don’t even care if Star Trek is better than Star Wars.
Careful now, you’re on Lemmy
Farscape 4 lyfe, bro.
Sometimes you have to back the fuck up on an unproductive argument. I don’t like it either, but it’s often an honorable way out for both parties.
Very close friend and neighbor was arguing with me about 01/06, an event that gave me PTSD-lite. It came to the point that we either dropped it or threw hands. Still, I refused to shake his hand on “agree to disagree”.
It admits that neither party is willing to change their opinion so an agreement can’t be reached, let’s move on.
