How to solve an arguement going nowhere?

[silver 2039]

Me and my friend are having an arguement on a certain incident that happend last year. I am absoloutley certain that the incident happend after lunch during English class mid way through the year. He however maintains that it happend in the first week of math class before lunch. One of us is wrong and its probaly him.

It is proabaly the stupid arguement ever but we've been going on about it for the past 10 mins. And its annoying me. I'm right and he's wrong and he refuses to believe me.

How does one settle such an arguement without violently beating the other person up? I refuse to comprimise!

A gun saves you the trouble of administering the beating. Beyond that, I'd say just drop it and move on with your life.

 

[Brighteye]

Look it up? Someone must have a timetable lying around from last year.

 

[JohnRM]

Grow up and let him/her have the last word, if that is what they want. Agree to disagree. End the discussion.

 

[Catharsis]

Kiss him full on the lips. That'll shut him up.

Provided that silver is a guy, like most people on these forums, that will earn him nothing more than a punch in the face, where I come from. I am willing to bet that it is similar wherever he/she lives.

 

[stormbind]

Humans make mistakes. Memory plays tricks on us.

The important thing is to believe you are both trying to do what is right. If you can agree on that you will be fine.

 

[BCLG100]

Shout the loudest.

 

[dutchfire]

Why are you asking this question in CFC OT, the place with the highest density of arguments going absolutely nowhere in the world?

Yeah, exactly, if we knew the answer to that we wouldn't be here...

 

[Catharsis]

But it will lead to a different argument going nowhere, thereby solving the original argument going nowhere.

 

[scy12]

Judging from the passage you have shown to us ....No Yes No Yes. Program or Download a Bot that will repeat those phrases and Leave. Tomorrow morning Laugh your Hearts off. OH .... it is Human discussion transmitted by sound vowels . Well. irony wins. Unfortunately it is a lot harder to do in the Internet.
"Yes brother you are Absolutely right. You always are. Remember that time .........
Whatever you say .... Ha ha. "

I hope you are also the older brother.

Ignore him, stop having the conversation, and walk away. Just say, "Ok", and ignore the person from then on.

How to solve an arguement going nowhere?

Think of a previous argument that you won, then say, "Youre wrong, just like last time with (previous argument)!"

 

[Perfection]

Bring up all the instances when he's been wrong before and totally shatter his credibility.

 

[Gilder]

Slap each other around a bit, then go out for a few beers.

Everything will be fine in the morning.

 

[LucyDuke]

Grow up and let him/her have the last word, if that is what they want. Agree to disagree. End the discussion.

Is there any real consequence to this argument? No? Just let it go.

 

[DNK]

Well, if you realize it's a pointless argument, then you should treat it as such and walk away. You've turned it instead into a struggle over who's "right" or has the better memory, and therefore made it personal.

So either just leave it be or fisticuffs. Those are the only two real options at this point. I suppose the kissing idea would work, assuming both parties are compatible, but these things tend to resurface anyway. The first two are the only options, really.

 

[Bozo Erectus]

Its either fisticuffs or pistols at dawn.

 

[DNK]

Ah yes, pistols at dawn works well, too.

I'd take the kissing over the latter option, though, even if it was man-man
