Because only the listener gets to decide how the listener feels about that which they are hearing. The listener will also be responsible for the listeners response, because they will be responding to that which they have listened in the way that they have decided to interpret that which was originally spoken. Or sommink like that.

Because them being a "cunt" relies on someone or ones to think so & usually people don't think of themselves as cunts so it relies on a 3rd party i.e. the listener. Course even then it's subjective

Does it though? I know I'm sometimes a cunt on here, but because I think so, not because you cunts might.

My point is when the discussion focuses on being 'right' much more cuntish behavior is involved; at the expense of a reasoned debate in which both sides may learn something.

See, its the or wrongly bit that makes one who discusses in the aforementioned way, a cunt. Either show it, or shut it imo.

Yep, this emphasis on being "right" is like some point scoring ego thing. I had a dose of it at a large family gathering on the weekend, it detracts from the event and gets in the way of motorcycling.

There's an easy way to fix that - go to the bottom left of your computer screen, click Start and then Shut Down.

Then go and pick up your motorcycle key, go to the bike and go for a ride !!!!

It's easy on here alright but I had to drive home from the family gathering first. Maybe next time I'll take the 'bike there.

I just like a bit of discussion and learning things without all the crap.

I can't find the start button, in-fact I can't find anything bottom left... You sure about this info? it seems dodgy
