Yep, you said it all. It's what gives me the pips about him and others like him. They say something you don't agree with, you say why and they dance, shift, whatever. So you can never have a straight conversation with them. And the goddamn competition bit they come up with has to be projection. Has to be. They all seem to have a need to come out on top. Like maybe that's the only way they ever have sex. But, that's another story. LOL
Aside: This morning a guy i hardly know came over and cut stumps down to poison size. Troublesome trees two other new friends had helped me cut down earlier, brought him over. Wouldn't take anything for what must have been close to two hours solid work for him. So Happy Hour today i'll dig deep and not let him buy a drink. Then he left another green bin for me to use too. Top day. Great job well done by them. Lots of exercise now ahead for me. 5.5 hours to Happy Hour. LOL
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
