    Sorry, its not something I'd usually take note of in forums. Anything written by me on a forum is just quick and dirty. ;) (edit: bad grammar)

      It adds the option of "have a debate". It increases the chance of winning because while that chance may be small, it is zero if you just take your leave.

      I fear that people at other tables, trying to enjoy their meals, will think of him as being quite the reverse of a winner, no matter the outcome of his childish, petty "debate" -- and I would tend to agree with their assessment.

          We're agreed, then: Only a d1ckhead and a loser would "debate" the issue, which is fully covered both by law and the guidelines of decent behaviour.

            I'll reply to this post to take into context the discussion above as well, but my quote is actually from your first one:

            Richard Deeming wrote:

            There's not apostrophe in "puts", and it should be "him", not "himself".

            Shouldn't that be "there's no apostrophe", or "there's not an apostrophe"? And no, my English is by no means perfect. Grammanize at will!

            This isn't a signature

              Yes, I'd hate the guy who disturbed my meal with his stupid debate, and I expect most people would feel the same way. I'd also be the guy who disturbs other peoples' meals with his stupid debate, knowing full well that people will hate me for it. That makes me a dickhead, and I'm ok with that.

                Damnit! Why does every attempt to correct someone else's grammar contain at least one mistake? :doh:

                  Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.
