In my head I go over my opponents arguements and dissect how they balance against my own, but it never makes it out of my head. Interesting.

In the end, it all evens out.

Whether it's a point I support or whether I'm just playing Devil's Advocate, people rarely handle well being told they're wrong. Specifically when I go 8 Mile on them and take away their argument by using it against myself before they get a chance to use it. That really bugs them. What frustrates me about all of this Facebook drama (EVERY time they make any change at all) is that people, for the most part (and maybe it's just me) are being so close-minded about it. I mean, if we still had the exact same Facebook from when it was still called "The Facebook" years ago and it didn't have half of the new features it has added over the years, people probably wouldn't even log in. I mean...even two years ago, it was so much less interactive and engaging, but people want to have something to complain about every time they change the home page or convert fan pages to be more like profile pages. I agree that someone's thinking of a better way to do everything around me right now. I just hope I can stay open-minded enough to accept the changes when they come.
