  • Arrogance is still arrogance regardless of whether you are the best or not.
    One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

    • It's not arrogance to think the best if you actually are AND THEN YOU WIN. And people after that will eventually praise you for having the strenght of living up to your premises.

      To think you are the best when your team never made it to the semifinals, it's plain stupid.
      I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

        Errr, isn't that the definition of arrogance?
        Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
        Then why call him God? - Epicurus

          Nah, when you suck but still talk big words, you're considered insolent.

          You will rarely use the word "arrogant" when referring to an underling who talks big words in the face of his superiors. OTOH, you'll rarely use the word "insolent" about an overlord who talks crap to his lessers.

            Yup. They seem to be trying to do the least amount of work to win.

              Listen to him. If anyone knows about insolence, it's the French

                It appears we're so good we're still one of the most arrogant countries
