I'm going to leave it alone


I don't have a stake in that fight. Or the other three either.

I've been trying NOT to get involved in internet debates unless I see that some good can result.

Arguing for the sake of arguing is out.

There have been four incidents in the last week or so. I won't say where or who, because I don't see any real possibility of productive results.

Although the gods know I am well and truly tempted.

In one case I did give my opinion, but they didn't agree for various PC reasons. In the others, I'm just going to watch.

My stepdad, stebsibs, and I used to argue about anything at the drop of a hat. It would drive my mother nuts at the dinner table. It wasn't really that we were interested in the argument, it was just a way to burn energy.

So either I am tired or I've gained wisdom, I'm not sure which. It's one thing to do my "almost the last advocate" thing. It's something else entirely to bang my head up against a wall.
