Well it's not like you don't know your stuff or anything Naomi, you clearly do even if I do say that when it comes to News topics you and I are at other ends of the spectrum. But your arguing/discussing style is personal beacause it's personal to you and means something to you... Hence why you know about it in the first place. So when someone gets your back up or is being an irritating little turd (I know, I know... who knew there were irritating folk on AB) then even when you're answering based on knowledge, you can still sort of tell they're bugging you or have offended you, even if it's just a real life shrug of annoyance, it comes across on here. Hence, people like Quinlad (who I should at this time point out I really like, find very funny and often agree with) will try to get a rise out of you because you talk and argue with feeling and they, (like me) are button pressers. Only difference between me and other button pressers is I don't try and score points by it, I'm just a good natured wind up merchant! ;0)
It's really not a criticism by the way, I hope it's not coming across in that way. It's just an observation I've made o styles of debate and the way people communicate on here is all. Not that you're bad at it, you're far from it, you just talk with your heart, hence heart on sleeve comment.
Did that make any kind of sense or was I just unintentionally very rude?! I hop not.
