    I disagree. You'll have to see it from their point of view. It can be quite a pain in the ass if someone is constantly questioning your smarts. It's just rude, so I don't do it. Sometimes it takes a while before I catch on though.. lol
    Besides it's important that everyone more or less gets along in the workplace.
    As for family, why would you harass the hell out of them by being a know-it-all ?

    That's what I was talking about. I guess we're using different definitions.
    What's yours ?

    Mine is, I try to live and let live most of the time. However, if I see or hear someone acting STUPID that directly affects me, they are going to hear about it...relative, coworker or stranger.

    I'm usually a fairly calm driver, until the above happens.
    If I see someone dart across three lanes way up ahead of me, I'm like 'eh, whatever' but if that same jackass darts across three lanes right in front of me, causing me to brake/turn or do anything out of my cruising path...it's on. I've thrown pennies and pebbles at drivers who have done that to me.

    Also, I will correct someone if they are telling someone else or a group of people false information that might lead to some of their misfortunes or something.

    I'm not usually an ass, unless someone else is being an ass to me, or indirectly to me.

    I guess it highly depends on the situation. I'm not going to undermine someones dignity by constantly correcting him/her or pursuing some disagreement when he/she is obviously wrong but clinging to the arguments.
    If they're still at it after I pointed out their error I'll just say something like "I don't think that's true" and end the conversion rather quickly. They can look it up later by themselves and hopefully learn something.

    Probably the same list

    The only time I worry about that list is when certain names appear on both. After all, it's not exactly uncommon that ignorant or even stupid people try to present themselves as intelligent, and in doing so accentuate their shortcomings.

    My posts are almost 100% not to be taken seriously at all.

    Most of the time, I find there's no need to play devil's advocate here. Whatever the subject is, it's seldom difficult to find someone here who truly holds whatever way-out nonsensical view you want to discuss.

    Exactly. Like all of these crazy vegetarians and vegans around here! Why they're always going on about something!

    Of course. However, I'm willing to bet even money that only a few people can identify the stances I present.

    My beliefs and views on life change on a daily basis. I can't help but be a very confused person.

    So no, I don't really hold any of the stances period.

    I don’t come here often, but I’m a born pathological liar. I say random shit on here, and people are very mean! I mean really, chill the fukk back bro. So no, I do not hold any stance in the real world or this microcosm of the real world.
