As much as it sucks... yes... I like it.
-
I finally just say ok and let them have the last word
-
Hell yes.
-
Most of the time. I don't anyone likes the feeling that they have been bested by someone, especially if it regards something we adamantly feel about. this discussion has ended!!! -- quickly leaves the area ---
-
Yes. Now shh.
-
Hehehehe What do you think? lol
-
Yes, and if you don't comment on this answer I get the last word here.
-
It used to be important to me until I realized that it changed nothing and meant nothing. Truth is truth. I am either right or wrong or a little of both. Having someone win an argument does not change anyone's mind or the course of history. Sometimes I win by letting the person I am discussing something with have the last word, considering their advice, and doing what I think is right. What is important are the decisions that we each make, not the arguments we win or looking good in a discussion. Even in the art of persuasion, having the last word is not always an indicator of success. Are we in this for the long haul or temporary, mini-victories?
-
Of course, I am a woman.
-
It's nice to have the last word, but I've learned that it doesn't mean anything, possibly that you don't know when to quit. I like to make my point, love debating something but when I find someone is just in it for the argument, I'm outta there. I don't need the last word. I just think it makes the other person look desperate at times. Last words don't mean you win.
-
Yes. What's with the name change, did your team lose?
-
somtimes but other times its quite pointless
-
Have you met me? I'm female and Irish. It's in my blood. By the way a woman always has the last word in an arguement. Anything a guy says after that is a new argument.
-
Not that important. As long as I get my point across to the person I'm talking to.
-
i really could care less...
-
All the words within a conversation are important to me regardless of when they are said or by whom.
-
As long as I have said what I needed to say, and feel that I am as understood as I can be, it doesn't matter to me who has the 'last word'.
-
No really important at all...as long as I have gotten my point across, thats all that matters to me. Whether they listen or not.
-
not important..:)
-
sometimes it is important especially when my beliefs are being attacked by people who are ill informed or who want to take the truth and twist it around to their own advantage. Usually though I don't care who has the last word
-
Not that important...but comments on the other hand...(don't ask why)
-
I almost never have the last word. I'm not afraid of confrontation or arguments, but I don't like it. I usually refrain from commenting because I'll probably say something I will regret later and I don't want to be hurtful. I try to pick up the "discussion" later when I'm calmer. As for every day issues, I don't really care about having the last word. I guess I never really thought about it, but good question!
-
Nah I'm good with just getting my point out there. If someone else wants to continue to rant and rave I just let em.
-
YES!!!! Because If I dont have the last word I feel lowly and DEFEATED! And I hate losing, so I keep talking until I get told to shut the hell up by my older sister or my dad. Infact my dad doesn`t even have to sa anything, he`ll just look at me with his little chinese eyes and scare the devil out of me.
-
No, cause I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. I can say my piece and walk away. People can figure sh*t out on their own. They don't need my dumba** to do it for them.
-
Only if the words last spoken by the person I'm arguing with are too stupid to be given the benefit of being "the last word". Seriously...I think I'm a pretty fair person, and I know when someone's made a good point, and when to let the discussion end on their point. But if they're a moron, watch out! :)
-
With some people thjat just push my buttons in a bad way.
-
Shhh...no body else answer this question...I want to have the last word!!! lol
-
Try me and we'll see who does. I'd put Bill O'Reilly to shame. I'd always have the last word (check comment count)
-
nope...
-
Depends on who I am speaking with!
-
Not really, I find that most people can't comprehend me from the first word, and therefore having the last word is wasting my breath.
-
Yes, I think I do...
-
Yes, I always have to. I inherited my mothers control freak side, lol
-
sometimes, if it invloves ice cream then i do - I say yes!!!
-
I've GOT to have the last word...My LIFE depends on it (lmao)
-
yes, it usually a sarcy one
-
no not always
-
Doesn't matter any more yo...
-
Hey TJ... If I do, it usually gets me in trouble... So, I try to just pretend I did... How have you been? How is Hillarityville?
-
Not always because sometimes having the last word makes me feel like I'm being overbearing or a pest. However, I just might have the last word in this thread. ;)
-
How Assinine! Not to mention babyish!I'm a very fair, logical, magnanimous person who can very easily admit I'm wrong and can concede if necessary to just agree to disgree. What kind of idiot thinks just cuz you tag something stupid on to the end of an argument that's already over that that means you've won? Unfortunately I've known quite a few pathologically insecure, irrational people, some of whom I'm sorry to say are relatives, who've attempted to do this. I try to bring up the point (esp when there's no witnesses) that even IF some courtroom stenpgrapher WAS hidden inside the shower stall getting it all down-what the *&%^$% does chronologically getting in a last word prove, when overall I've provided the best argument? (Not that THAT's any big deal, because secure people don't have anything to prove)
-
One of us will, and I'll be a liar if I said I didn't want the last word. I'm sure we all do.. We want to get our point across. The reason you have arguments is because you both think your right so why would you want the other person to have the last word only for you to feel defeated?
-
Yes and No...it depends on 2 things... # 1 who am I arguing with # 2 what is the argument about
-
No..sometimes it's best to just walk away, quietly and don't look back.
-
no because i hardly ever do i always give up to easily
