> [@monstro](#): > > When people post transcripts of their text-fights and expect me to be the judge, I have to resist the urge to automatically side with the other person. I know this is irrational considering all the Straight Dope fights I’ve gotten into, but goodness gracious. This is a fight between you and the person you supposedly love. It’s like taking a picture of him wiping his ass and putting it up on Facebook and expecting us to all laugh at him. Maybe if I knew you to be a decent person and him to be a jerk, I could do this. But I don’t know know either of ya’ll. Both of you sound like people I wouldn’t want to spend lots of time around, truth be told. I have done this sometimes not because I want people to rally to my cause(unless it is really is a crazy ass mofo I don’t love but I’m dealing with, see “crazy bitch”). But because I want feedback to see if I am way off course with the person I do love, or want an outside viewpoint, or just someone to offer some magic advice to fix things. I have in fact received good advice this way, new ways to look at things, and tips on mending things. Soo yea. ---

You both have issues, buts that’s been covered already. I would be very interested in this research you have done. It’s been documented that Alpha wolves have shown empathy towards omega wolves plenty of times. Not only that, they have been known to accept cubs into their pack that aren’t their own. ---

Too long, didn’t read. I think you’re at fault in this argument, actually. Claiming dogs only show affection because they’re wired to, but your cat _loves_ you? Really? Yeah, maybe you are a, not necessarily a narcissist, but something. ---
