I know what it’s like on the angrier and frustrated end, but I try hard to remain objectively rational about the arguments at hand and the cards on the table. I’ll analyze if I must (well I should).
So why can’t they. FYI, ‘they’ in this context refers to the ones guilty enough to know it.
I’m a lot calmer these days and surer of what’s around me. Oh, and yes, I’m annoyingly idealistic. If you hate rainbows, little dwarfs being friends with princesses, miraculous transformation of toads and a talking mirror, you won’t like hanging around me (not that I talk about fairy tales much.)
The excuse of being older and wiser is ironically starting to sound…old. And there’s your first clue, that the ‘they’ could be ‘old’. My friend once said “If it’s a mistake then it’s my mistake to make,” when I asked him why he did the things he did.
I’m compelled to agree with that statement. I think God calls it character building.
But yes, back to constructive arguments and why the uneducated fail so miserably at it… I think it’s a rhetoric question, and we shall not delve into that any longer least our gray matter decides to prematurely die off by their millions.
Harsh words? I think not.
(I also think that should be my tagline…I end a lot of entries this way don’t I…here’s one for the road)
*In a Darth Vader's Voice* Harsh Words? I Think Not.

And here's to both of us. If there's anyone more idealistic than me, it's those 5 year olds who thinks the world is made of rainbows.
Oh gee. I hate those kind of people.
I found out the easiest way to handle them is to be completely oblivious towards them and the things they say. It gets them extremely annoyed and best of all, they'll eventually tire themselves out.
Nicole:
hey you :) The world *could* be made out of rainbows but that'd be boring -- i'd rather they be made of food~
