I have this friend, right? This friend who refuses to admit when he's wrong. Over the past little bit, I've been thinking to myself "Self, maybe you are being unfair to this friend! Maybe the problem is you never prove without a doubt that he is incorrect! Clearly you are being too hard on Friend and need to stop being such a nincompoop."
So today I get proof that I am not insane. And, to make sure, I submit a short IM conversation for evidence.
Friend (10:48:40 PM): Spouse beginning or stopping work rates 1 higher than starting or stopping school. the_wanlorn (10:48:53 PM): Wut. Friend (10:49:11 PM): sexual dysfunction rates 40 the_wanlorn (10:49:20 PM): Beginning is a bajillion times less stressful than stopping for work. And the opposite for school. And school < work. Wut. the_wanlorn (10:49:23 PM): Hahahahaha Friend (10:49:58 PM): I'm more suprised that people find their spouse changing jobs more stressful than their own education the_wanlorn (10:50:12 PM): Changing or stopping? the_wanlorn (10:50:27 PM): 'Cause changing is wicked way different from stopping. Friend (10:50:29 PM): I'm reducing "beginning or stopping" to "changing" the_wanlorn (10:50:54 PM): I dunno that that's what they mean, then. the_wanlorn (10:51:22 PM): Unless there's something separate for "souse getting fired/laid off/quitting" Friend (10:51:49 PM): there's a "change in business" the_wanlorn (10:52:10 PM): Then your interpretation would mean it'd be the same thing on there twice the_wanlorn (10:52:14 PM): Except differently worded.
So, first off, am I insane? Or did I clearly "win" that argument?
Second off, guess when and what the next IM was?
When: 15-ish minutes later What: Me sending a link to something.
