So me

NS February 23rd, 2008

internet joke

Comic attributed to xkcd

Anyone who knows me well knows that this cartoon sums up my computer usage quite neatly. It is rare for me to back down from an argument or debate, I just love the back-and-forth too much. Sometimes it gets me worked up unnecessarily, sure, but often it’s fun and I learn something new.

Stubborn — moi?

    My husband wants to buy me a tshirt that says, “I would just agree with you but then we’d both be wrong”. That’s “So Me”,too ;)

    That is why, in your youth, sending you to your room was punishment worse than a beating. No one to hear you argue! :-)

    That is the best way to be!

    Love love love it. Now, how about some baby bump pics on the family website, huh? Plus, I need to see some more Millie in 2008…

    Does it help to know others are similarly afflicted? Nah, probably not!

    Oh, that’s so me, too. After years of arguing that I’m not argumentative with those who claim i am, I’ve finally given in and decided this is the one and only area in which I was wrong, and I now embrace my argumentative self quite happily. I can’t help it if 90% of the time others are wrong, can I? And I have a right to speak up and correct them, don’t I?

    Bob, thank you for posting the source, I don’t know how I missed that I hadn’t put the link in — doh! Apologies.

    To everyone else — I suspect that our stubbornness is what keeps us all blogging. A desire to communicate with people (even if in four-letter words) is usually the impetus behind internet usage, no?
