    I don't argue really that often.

    When I do, I generally argue against easy picks/dogpiled people, so I don't think I "win" arguments.

      I think in arguments, whoever finally is overcome with a migraine concedes.
      A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

        It's not about arguing, it's about putting people in their place.

        And the answer is yes.

          Point of the question? Each side usually claims victory. FE, IMO libertarians almost never win debates.

            I generally support the "banana" option - it frequently wins.

            There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

              I dogpile, so I always win.

                  I don't seek glory in the triumph. I like to see people get pwnd, and I will help if I sense weakness.

                    Not always. Sometimes Fez posts on a religion thread.

                      I want to see Fez get into an argument with MalevolentLight about gay marriage. That would be pretty awesome.

                        I think he did a few weeks back. Or at least he did with Ben Kenobi, that was very entertaining.

                          Libertarians are know for standing up when typing their arguments, which allows them to pull facts out of their ass.

                            I can't ever remember losing an argument.
