Asinine Conspiracies

The NWO stuff is fake as hell. Everyone knows its the Pentavorite that runs the show.

I thought it was the Build-A-Bear Workshop, or something..

Have you ever tried to change a woman's mind?

HA! Reminds me of arguments in my house. Usually parents vs. kids.
I say an argument is "won" when shit goes the way I say it's going to go. "Do your homework." I win the argument when the homework is done. "Go to bed." I win the argument when the kid goes to bed.
She says the argument is "won" when everyone agrees with her. There isn't a "Do your homework" from her. It's "Here's why you need to do your homework and I'm going to keep lecturing you until you understand and agree." Very frustrating.
Anyway, they say not to talk about religion or politics with people. I think it's because you really can't present any facts in either case that people will allow to change their minds. According to that video I linked, I guess most people aren't intelligent enough to accept someone else's viewpoint on these things.

Well, Dub, have always marveled how at the end of an (any) argument, it's always my fault, even when she dented my car with hers, as I was parked in the driveway, waaaay over to my side....other issues as well. Maybe we do need a female as President, against Iranians, Russians, Chinese, etc.

Accountability is a woman's kryptonite.. I too have been amazed at how many times that my wife lost an earring and it was somehow my fault. This is why I don't argue with them I just listen until they're down cackling then I walk away and forget it.

Ha.
My son was in the bathroom, pooping. Not a toddler, potty training. He was probably 14 or 15 at the time. My wife walked in on him. That was my fault.
True story.

Well, you’re the one who got her pregnant, right? But for that, the bathroom incident does not happen. With but-for causation, you can shift the blame for anything to anyone.

From the time that I was a teen until I was 28 all of my relationships were mere glorified hook up. Between being in the service, working remote Alaska and a few other quick gigs I was never in one place long enough to ever have a serious relation. When I finally did get married and realized what I had gotten myself into I almost had a panic attack. It's been a learning experience but I've come to understand that women are wired differently than men and to survive you have to understand this. I've been married nearly 30 years now and have never raised my voice at my wife. I've taken the brow beatings like a man, allowed her to vent, accepted that it was my fault when she stubbed her toe at work and moved on without any real problems.
That being said I think the original idea of @Zurp 's post was about low IQ people not changing their mind. I do find that women can be hard headed about changing their mind about something they've learned or something that they feel strong about. They're emotional creatures and don't process data, reason or logic in the same way that men do. They're also very prideful and will dig in and double down when their beliefs are challenged. It's just they way it is.
