I think I get it now you and Erick equate "wrong opinion" with "disagree".

 

 

Let me ask you something.

 

If you were to say right now..."why the f*** did we send Maybin down? I thought he was doing great."

 

You're going to tell me that opinion isn't wrong, when there are facts to prove you wrong?

 

And before your horrendus reading & comprehension skills come in & respond to this post, please note that I know you never said this. I'm just providing an example.

Dropping like flies? That was literally my first post on this topic, where I was agreeing with you. You just jumped on something for no reason.

 

Don't act like you "won" because you just stubbornly said the same thing over and over again while completely ignoring what other people were saying.

 

And remember, I said I was most likely smarter than you for two reasons:

 

1) You decided that everyone else was dumber than you.

 

and

 

2) It's extremely likely.

 

I don't have to decide someone is dumber than me if they say things like "wrong opinion". I KNOW I'm smarter if thats the case but I really don't care either way. I know how smart I am. I can only tell how smart others are on this forum by what they say and how they say it.

You're calling someone dumb based on the semantics of the word "wrong".

 

Here is a great example. I voted for Obama for President. The reason I voted for him is because I felt that his opinions on how to run the country was that RIGHT way to do it and that McCain's was the WRONG way. There for, I felt his opinion was wrong. I didn't think McCain's opinions were false, but that they were the incorrect way to to run the country.

 

And you do care. You've been arguing this for so long while blatantly insulting anyone you disagreed with and repeating "but I don't care" that it's pretty obvious that you do in fact care.

 

I'm blatantly insulting people who disagree with me? really? gosh, aren't we a little sensitive.

 

I care when you tell me i'm wrong about something that is inarguably correct.

 

I think you also have the definition of semantics wrong, as well.

 

If you disagree with McCain's politics then thats all that is... a disagreement. Its not that his beliefs (or opinions) are wrong (incorrect/bad/etc... whatever synonym you want to use) its just that your beliefs are DIFFERENT than his.

 

You can say you disagree with someones opinion. When you say that their opinion is wrong because of the fact you disagree then you're just being ignorant as to what an opinion is.

 

I think I get it now you and Erick equate "wrong opinion" with "disagree". Which is a dumb way to go about it but hey, you seem comfortable in your ignorance so I guess there is nothing more I can say to change your mind that there is no such thing as a wrong (or right) opinion.

 

 

you seem comfortable in your ignorance

 

We'll leave it at that.

You guys are pathetic

You guys are pathetic

 

 

This opinion isn't wrong, btw. (because there are no facts to prove that we are not pathetic :thumbup )

Let me ask you something.

"Why did we send him down?".... that called a QUESTION

 

"I thought he was doing great".... thats called an OPINION. It might not be a widely agreed upon opinion but that doesn't mean its wrong.

 

you can disagree with me and say "I think he deserves to be sent down. in my OPINION, he was doing horribly"

 

Just because an opinion isn't popular or favorable to most doesnt mean that it is "wrong".

 

why is this so hard for you to understand? wait, nevermind. I think I know why....

 

 

Who wants to take bets on when Erick will finally understand that opinions can't be wrong or right. Over/Under is 5,000 posts

You guys are pathetic

At least I don't live in my mom's basement.

Let me ask you something.

Whatever floats your boat, though. You don't even need to comeback either b/c I know you'll either say 1) "But it's my opinion," or 2) "I don't really take this seriously."

 

Your posts are getting about as predictable as my " 's."

But those bets couldn't be right or wrong, because they are mere opinions...........

 

(okay so this is a gray area where opinions and predictions run together, but I couldn't resist)

you seem comfortable in your ignorance

 

We'll leave it at that.

 

 

sh*t man, thats all you had to say.

 

If you would have said "I'm comfortable in my ignorace" I wouldn't have tried so hard to teach you something.

 

Erick, on the other hand, is just stubborn + ignorant and its impossible to impart knowledge to someone like that.

You guys are pathetic

Very funny, future stay-at-home Dad.

 

At least I have a job...or...should have a job by the end of the day if my interview goes well.

you just put a bunch of numbers in your post.... how does this prove your theory of "wrong opinion"?

 

haha, good lord youre slow.... you know your stats but youre really really slow

Here we go again. This may be a word for word repost of something I said last night:

 

The fact that he believes is not wrong. He does in fact believe that. This cannot be disputed, he may have legitmately thought maybin was doing great.

 

But the fact of what he believes (maybin doing great) can be wrong if reality goes against, not 'popular thought'.

 

Ergo, his opinion is not 'wrong' but it isn't based on anything so it is, at best, entirely worthless, and at worst, incorrect.

Let me ask you something.

 

If you were to say right now..."why the f*** did we send Maybin down? I thought he was doing great."

The numbers are the facts that would prove that your opinion is wrong...(or at least, definitely worthy of starting an argument over b/c there's no logic behind saying such a thing, at the moment).

 

There's nothing "slow" here, although if your only comeback is an insult...again, whatever floats your boat.

 

As for your comment on me...yes, I am stubborn.

I almost never do this but...

All I can really say is that...

 

1) I'm so very happy you're not old enough to vote

2) I hope you miraculously become smarter (or less ignorant + stubborn) by the time you do get allowed to vote

3) Just because you give an opinion with facts doesn't mean that your opinion is right or wrong.

 

for example.

 

A guitar is an instrument, the best instrument anyone can play.

 

fact, followed with an opinion. How is that opinion right or wrong.

 

You can add validity to your stance on an arguement by providing stats (the stats you want to provide which, for you, validate your OPINION). That doesn't mean you're right and a person that disagrees with you is wrong.

 

Your stupity is unflappable

That's not an apt analogy, because there is no objective way to look at 'instrument' quality.

 

I would agree there is no right or wrong in subjective discussions.

 

But 'quality' of a baseball player doesn't have to be a subjective discussion.

All I can really say is that...

 

1) I'm so very happy you're not old enough to vote

2) I hope you miraculously become smarter (or less ignorant + stubborn) by the time you do get allowed to vote

3) Just because you give an opinion with facts doesn't mean that your opinion is right or wrong.

1) Good for you. You won't have to worry about that b/c I could care less about that, anyways. If you really have a problem with me voting b/c you think I'm ignorant, then you must have a problem with America. B/c there are a lot of ignorant voters, regardless.

2) I'll always be stubborn. It's my best characteristic, if you ask me. You act as if being stubborn is a bad thing...really, it isn't. I would be dead if I wasn't stubborn.

3) If I have a fact to back up an opinion & you don't, it certainly makes me more correct, no?

 

As for your example, that's a good opinion.

There are no facts out there to prove you wrong with that one.

 

That's the difference.

 

I'm glad you finally got it.

1) Do you have stats that can prove most americans are ignorant?

2) The world needs less people like you

3) No. Again, a million times again, just because you have your facts right doesn't make the opinion that follows right or wrong. An opinion isn't something that can be right or wrong, true or false.

it's really frustrating to respond to someone who consistently ignores things.

If I say "Maybin is batting .300 for this season". Then I would be wrong.

 

If I say "Maybin is the best player the Marlins have". Then I simply stated my opinion. It's impossible for you to claim that what I said is right or wrong because its an opinion. The way I qualify "best" might be different than the way you would. You can argue this position but saying that my opinion is wrong is close to the dumbest things ever said.

1) Do you have stats that can prove most americans are ignorant?

2) The world needs less people like you

3) No. Again, a million times again, just because you have your facts right doesn't make the opinion that follows right or wrong. An opinion isn't something that can be right or wrong, true or false.

 

 

1) You obviously didn't watch BET after the elections.

2) Thanks

3) I'll be mature enough to agree to disagree. Obviously, your opinion isn't going to change...and neither is mine.

it's really frustrating to respond to someone who consistently ignores things.

 

 

its hard to teach someone when they choose to be ignorant

#3) this is basically my point and entire argument.

 

its hard to change someone's opinion on certain things. all you can really do is argue your side of the position and go from there. The problem I have is when you say "your opinion is wrong". You might disagree but you're not going to get close to getting your point across or changing someones mind if you simply say "your opinion is wrong".

it's really frustrating to respond to someone who consistently ignores things.

 

 

its hard to teach someone when they choose to be ignorant

 

Stop acting like you are on some holy f***ing crusade.

 

For someone who values the importance of opinion as highly as you do, you sure seem unwilling to accept other's.
