Relaxing with a cup of coffee and some pumpkin spice faux creamer ...lol Beats getting in line at Starbucks, and paying $5 for the same experience.
Okay, I need to vent. I can't stand self righteous bullies who think that if you don't agree with them, something must be defective about your thinking. Alright, I feel a tiny bit better.

I'm okay with people pointing out problems with my thinking, because I love to argue, I'm open to constructive criticism and I'm willing to revise my views if they can be shown to be supported faulty reasoning. What I don't like is people that are unable to defend their criticism with the same standard of honesty and are unable to recognize that it is their reasoning, not mine, that is faulty. That's just annoying.

No offense, personally, but having someone unexpectedly thrust three jenkem covered fingers down your throat is a superior experience to any to be had at Starbucks.
Management is reinspecting my apartment tomorrow. I have tasks yet to be accomplished in order to get the apartment sufficiently ready so as to pass muster. I just compiled a list of the things I must get done before inspection, things it would be good to do prior to inspection, and things that, time permitting, I'd like to do prior to inspection. Even if I ignore the things that aren't a "must do" on my list, I could very well still be working on things past my bedtime. There is a core of about 1/2 of the must do list, which, if accomplished, would result in a satisfactory review by management, but even that core is substantial.
Anyway, I fully expect to easily pass inspection. If not, there will be a corpse, and it won't be mine.

That's just annoying. See, that could be part of my problem. I hate arguing, instead I run off...flailing my arms as I'm screaming down the road. Just kidding, I'm not that afraid of debate.
Sometimes, conflict is good, the other person gets you to think so on and so forth. True. But, I know someone (who I'm referring to in my rant) who argues for the sake of arguing, and often enjoys being contrary. And it all comes off in a bullying, berating kind of way. As though there is this aura about the person that says ''So you know, before we even begin this conversation, I'll end up being right.''
