Re: A simple philosphy
Apology not needed . You have misunderstood my point .slinger wrote:As I have already signalled my agreement with joe's previous statement I believe that means WE are in a group of 2 rather than joe being in a group of one as per your erroneous statement. It would appear to be you who are in the group of one, not joe.Daniel Quinn wrote:O Joe there is no point at all in being a group of 1.
Apology accepted D.Q. Don't even bother to write it down; joe and I will take it as read.
Joe said as long as I think I am right that is all that matters , my retort [ no point being in a group of 1 *] was referring to me , I can't think of anything worse than holding an opinion that is not corroborated. Our as Don Mclean put it far more eloquently
For I can not be part of her "Cocktail-Generation Partner's Waltz,"
Devoid of all romance
The music plays and everyone must dance
I'm bowing out, I need a second chance
And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you
That I'm tired of Castles in the Air
I've got a dream I want the world to share in castle walls
Just leave me to despair
* And paskin , a group of 1 is of course an oxymoron , it was the point . Worse than pedantry ? Perhaps pointless pedantry .
Re: A simple philosphy
I can see how some opinions are 'better' if corroborated (e.g. 'is this picture straight?'), but surely sometimes one's own opinion is all that counts, e.g. if you like a piece of music, why would you care what anyone else thought?

Or it may be an argumentative egomaniac

Are you suggesting that DQ is an argumentative tosser?Dr Bunsen Honeydew wrote:Because like me he likes to argue the toss.
