Sometimes we need to be reminded of our arguments, and you can be one of those people who doesn’t actually want to argue. I’m not talking about the kind of argument that you get into with someone and then it ends in an argument over who won the argument (I don’t think that’s fair anyway). I’m talking about the kind of argument that seems like it should be easy to avoid, but it’s actually quite difficult.
There’s nothing wrong with having a bit of a debate as a hobby, but if you’re doing it with your friends it can be a really irritating thing to do. You might end up arguing like a bunch of idiots, or worse, you might end up having a heated argument on your blog.
That’s what happened to me recently, when I tried to argue with a person who was taking over my blog. It was a fairly heated exchange, so I decided to go into my blog’s arguments page and put a link to my blog to the person who had taken over it, and I did.
This happened to me a few years back, when a friend who was also a blogger did this and got into a bit of a rant on my blog. I was horrified at the idea of someone taking over my blog and making me talk about the things I dislike about it. I put up a link to my own blog and the person who I thought was taking over my blog and I had no problem with it.
I think a lot of this comes down to personality, and I’m very quick to point out that it’s fine to disagree with people on this blog, but I think it’s really important to put your own personality on the line. If you don’t, you are a bad person.
If you have a blog (or website), you should never assume that the person who is doing it is a good person. If you do, you are a bad person.
I like to argue on the blog. I try to be as fair and balanced as I can be, so it is not at all surprising that I have been known to go on the ‘other side’. If I am being argumentative, I usually end up not being the best person to argue with. But I must admit that I have never been terribly good at it.
You shouldn’t always assume that the person who is posting is a good person. If he is being argumentative, you should probably be arguing with him instead. But the thing to remember is that arguments can get heated. One reason I have been known to go on the other side is because I can be fairly argumentative. But I also have the tendency to come off as very cold and distant in debate.
It’s definitely true that good arguments can get heated, but if you are not good at it, you should not be arguing with anyone. Good arguments are usually more than just arguing. They are a way of helping other people to learn how to be arguments with you.
One of the main ways to become good at arguing is to practice. Practice makes perfect. It’s a fact about the world. Practice can be hard, but if you practice, your skills will improve, and that is a great thing. Learning how to argue with others can also help you learn how to argue with yourself. It’s a skill that you will put to use when you are in a real situation where you have to make a tough decision about something important.
