WHO WINS THE ARGUMENT?


[+] serious ballot by LCD
created Thu Oct 26, 06

someone throws insults at you, and threatens you.

your response to the insult and threats determines who wins.

how do you respond?

respond in kind, threats and insults
just ignore, and walk away
point and laugh, and slowly back away
respond with double the insult and threats
escalate to physical violence.
push their buttons until they implode
Respond civilly and above their childish level
Expose the motivation of their anger. Nothing could hurt them more.
Smile at them & kiss their forehead
Sue them for libel; have them prosecuted for stalking
respond with a great witty comment
Call them an Anti-Semite

Not worth the confrontation, regardless of the words thrown.

People like that aren't worth my time. I'd rather just ignore them and walk away.

Many people who throw insults and threats cannot be reasoned with.

I got a nasty habit of pushing buttons and escalating the situation. I really need to work on that.

Easy, just call them hitler over and over again in subtely different ways.

^^nope, herzog, as I recall, you never threw insults at me, or threatened me.

I must have done that for some other reason :)

I like to give it a mix of 4,6,5 followed by 3 when I've finished. :o)

Asking people on this site how to win an arguement is like asking the New Orleans Saints how to win the Super Bowl.
by RobinGaylord on Thu Oct 26, 06 6:09pm [+]

Obviously I'm kidding.
by RobinGaylord on Thu Oct 26, 06 6:25pm [+]

What more could they say after that....especially if it is in public?
by Exotique on Thu Oct 26, 06 8:15pm [+]

^ I meant after smiling and kissing their forehead.

Voted : Respond civilly and above their childish level
What argument?

A tempered spirit only torments itself.

A war with one's self is a war you no one wins.

Some where I heard "cooler heads prevail", I think that's probably accurate.
