If you can find a deciduous  1,000 years old tree that is not hollowed out then you are a magician . You have a point but its your constant " No its not " attitude that makes me bristle . You cant let anyone have their day . Some times  I listen to people who say stuff and I think , Thats not right/true/possible but I let it go coz I think I was like that when I was young and they might see it  different  later in life but you godda shoot every swinging  dick down whatever !  . 

you are barking up the wrong tree, mate.

 

He genuinely thinks he knows everything.

 

No point debating/arguing with someone like that.

 

To be fair if Vesp told me it was raining outside I'd want to go and check for myself.

Perhaps I might just enjoy playing the devils advocate on occasion..

 

My ex girlfriend used to say I was always "so contrary", I thought about it then had to admit she was right. its what I'm like..

 

she also pointed out I was opinionated, which wouldn't be the first time someone had pointed that out..  I always listen to something and before I know it I'm musing on why they're wrong..  its a gift I suppose..   not everyone thinks the same..

And of course, you don't see any problem in that?

Nope, I think its a good thing..  can't get fooled by things, like stories of ten thousand year old tree's an such..

I don't believe it ( à la Meldrew) you had to admit she was right with no argument
