How good are you at arguing?
It always depends on the person you're arguing with and how good they are with their own arguments.

Are there any good things about arguing?
When the person is clearly in the wrong and they're trying to justify that wrong.

Who is the worst person to argue with? Why?
A judge and a jury. There are real consequences for representing yourself. This is why you get a lawyer, who is someone much better at debating than you are.

Who is the most argumentative person you know?
My daughter. She's going through that phase.

Is it wrong to argue with your elders?
Nope. They're like everyone else. They're capable of being wrong with their arguments too.

How often do you feel frustrated in an argument?
It's mostly with people I work with that try to walk all over me.

What was the last argument you had?
It was at work on Monday. This manager I work with picked a fight with me over petty bullshit. Threatened to go to management even though I had permission from management.
Have you ever lost a friend because of an argument?
Yeah, several.

What's the best way to win an argument?
Know your source material. Pick & choose your battles. Don't start a fight you can't win.

Is it best to avoid arguments?
I try to at work. It's a recipe for disaster.

What topics would you never argue about?
I try my best to avoid political and religious debates. But often find myself arguing those topics with people who try to push their beliefs onto me.

What is the best way to make up after an argument?
That's hard to do. The other person often wants to be correct even when they're wrong. So...to make up, they often want you to admit you're wrong and that you were stupid for standing up for yourself. I would say it's up to you on what you value more.
 
How good are you at arguing?
Terrible, I lose my train of thought and scramble in the heat of the moment.
Are there any good things about arguing?
Yeah, people argue, it's healthy to disagree.
Who is the worst person to argue with? Why?
Random people, because what's the point?
Who is the most argumentative person you know?
My sister.
Is it wrong to argue with your elders?
No.
How often do you feel frustrated in an argument?
Every time.
What was the last argument you had?
I'm struggling because of the meds I'm currently on after being pretty sick, they knock me out. I'm getting constantly yelled at for not being present enough to look after my mother.
Have you ever lost a friend because of an argument?
Yes and no? Lost a lot of friends when I came out, a couple of which tried to argue that I wasn't trans, I was just imagining it.
What's the best way to win an argument?
Agree with the other person and walk away.
Is it best to avoid arguments?
If you can, but it's healthy to disagree.
What topics would you never argue about?
...nothing, really.
What is the best way to make up after an argument?
Apologize. Be the bigger person and extend the olive branch.
 
How good are you at arguing?
•Not good, I don't like doing it.

Are there any good things about arguing?
•No.

Who is the worst person to argue with? Why?
•Someone who never thinks they are wrong.

Who is the most argumentative person you know?
•I'm not sure.

Is it wrong to argue with your elders?
•When you are younger, yes. But not when you are an adult. Adult to adult, respect is earned not given. If someone older wants to come sideways, they will get back what they put out.

How often do you feel frustrated in an argument?
•When the other person is getting louder and doing all of the talking. Just annoying and a good way to get me angry although I try not to.

What was the last argument you had?
•With my brother.

Have you ever lost a friend because of an argument?
•No.

What's the best way to win an argument?
•I don't think there's a real way to win though. For me, I'm going to either walk away or ignore someone. I don't have time for the back and forth, up and down, side to side. I'm probably going to put a person on my shit list if they continue to try to argue.

Is it best to avoid arguments?
•Yeah, sure. Try to talk it out like adults if possible.

What topics would you never argue about?
•Religion and Politics.

What is the best way to make up after an argument?
•Watch Samurai Cop
 
I hate arguing, its a waste of time. Lets just chill and be cool with each other. :D
 
How good are you at arguing?
Not great . I hold back a lot because I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.
However, that doesn't mean I agree with the argument. :LOL:


Are there any good things about arguing?
Arguing can be good because it clears up confusion
Who is the worst person to argue with? Why?
Well, it's better not to go there. :agg:

Who is the most argumentative person you know?

:idk:
Is it wrong to argue with your elders?

It's not necessarily wrong to argue with your elders, but it's important to do so respectfully. Elders often have more life experience and wisdom, but they're not always right
How often do you feel frustrated in an argument?
Most of the time, I prefer not to argue.

What was the last argument you had?
The last argument I had was about music.


Have you ever lost a friend because of an argument?
No


What's the best way to win an argument?

In an argument, it's not just about winning. It's about understanding each other.


Is it best to avoid arguments?
It depends on the situation. While it's generally good to avoid unnecessary conflict, some arguments are necessary


What topics would you never argue about?
I tend to avoid arguing about personal beliefs or preferences because everyone is entitled to their own, and I also steer clear of sensitive topics such as religion, politics.

What is the best way to make up after an argument?
Apologise if needed, listen to each other, and work towards finding a resolution.
 
How good are you at arguing?

Sadly pretty good. Thanks dad.

Are there any good things about arguing?

No, but yes. Arguing is not healthy at all, people should always try to talk rationally to work things out. However, during arguments, people tend to tell their truth (how they really feel), and it can help to determine if that person is worth keeping around.

Who is the worst person to argue with? Why?

A woman. 😂😂 (*Lurks in shadows to avoid the pink pitch forks*)

No, but really, any of the idiots who cry about Disney Star Wars.

Who is the most argumentative person you know?

Me.

Is it wrong to argue with your elders?

It's wrong to argue with anyone, imo.

How often do you feel frustrated in an argument?

All the time, as I get easily frustrated if the other person isn't being reasonable or is flat out being dumb.

What was the last argument you had?

With an idiot crying about Star Wars having a black female lead.

Have you ever lost a friend because of an argument?

Probably, but I don't recall off the top of my head.

What's the best way to win an argument?

Block the other person. 😂 😂 Sadly, that really is the only way unless you and a friend are having a respectable debate, you both can probably end it with "agree to disagree" Otherwise, the majority of people become rabid and refuse to back down.

Is it best to avoid arguments?

Yes, but lets be honest here, most of us do not want to let stupid people keep spewing stupid things.

What topics would you never argue about?

Anything regarding other countries. I don't have knowledge on other country affairs/politics and nor do I care.

What is the best way to make up after an argument?

If you're arguing with a partner, make up sex. Angry/make up sex can be the hottest thing.

If anyone else, pretend it never happened.
