Hi,

I have observed that what pisses me off the most are the soo called "facts" that are presented to the audience as irefutable obvious conclusions, usually to lessen a cometing console in any way. These provoke, are seldom true, and are always presented with the authority and arogance of beings superio to others.

Exaples (not the best ones):

Wii is for kids. Fact.

The PS3 has no games, the truth.

Xbox360 is nothing but shoters, prooven.

I would like to call these people FactBoys, persons who with arrogance present dubious information or conclusions as fact, then proceed to twist, belittle or ignore all arguments against their fact. They are nocive to any discusion.

One of the worst king of fanboys are factboys.

I hate their guts.

Oh yeah, best way to deal with them is to nod and pretend you care about their opinions.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
