Do you always have to get the last word?

I've noticed that I always try to get the last word these days. Are you like that too?

Yes.

DAMN IT!!

That's exactly what I did, Gusto! But you guys posted too quickly and now the joke is ruined.

I find it more effective to let the other person have the last word, while he/she knows exactly that's what I'm doing.

"Obviously you feel stronger about this issue than I do, so if it means that much to you, I'll be happy to agree to disagree with you. I won't be replying further to anything else you post."

Honestly I prefer having a little more subtlety to my conversations, at least those that occur in real life, where I can make an expression that could potentially take the place of a few sentences.

I think most people here would think I'd say yes, but for the most part I decide to let most things go.

Well I always let my wife think she had the last cold beer in the fridge, but there is always a secret last beer that is only for me, so yes I always have the last beer.

I only need to have the last word if I really strongly believe someone is wrong about something dear to me... otherwise... let the baby have their bottle.

Pretty much this. I couldn't care less most of the time, but if I'm really into a conversation that turns...exciting, I automatically go for "last word".

I find that any conversation where someone feels the need to have the last word is one in which no one is really listening anyway, so no, I don't see a lot of point to it.

Unless the last words can be "your mother". Then, sometimes.

Cobra Star

I used to do it, pretty badly actually. Especially in arguments.

With time I learned to not really care and have a "oh let them think they won" attitude.

For me it just depends on the conversation and what kind of mood I am in at the time.

I not only don't worry about getting the last word but I often don't care if I put in the first or even an inbetween word.

I tend to get the last word in during normal conversations. But it is mostly in a sub-conscience manner.

OK,

Alright.

Yeah, Me too.

I almost never need the last word in arguments. I very much used to be the person that was a total shit**** about things and would never let them drop. Now I don't care.

You know what, I'm offended that dick or cock isn't censored but **** is. That's a God damn double standard.

Movie Cyclops is an insult to the regular one. He's a tactical genius and his blasts are strong enough to blow Wolverine's skin off.

I think I'm more impressed by the angle of refraction than anything else.

Shooting lasers from extremities? Pfft! Passé...

Refracting them after they've been shot into you from another source? Now THAT'S talent...

I hated that game. I don't think I made it through the first chapter before going "You know, screw this," and putting it away. I haven't played it since.

I think I made it about 6 hours into the first one before dying enough inside to give up. I went in expecting Xenogears, which I suppose was my first mistake.

Yes, and there is a huge difference. Xenogears was hard, but awesome; Xenosaga is just plain fucked up.

To explain about the womb laser: I was talking to someone about the game, asking if it got better, and if the totally obvious "mystery" about KOS-MOS' development was supposed to be a shocking twist later in the game. That started the person I was talking to off on KOS-MOS' "womb laser", as she called it. Apparently late in the game, or ever a later game, KOS-MOS' abdomen opens up and fires some doomsday beam that wipes out the aliens. So I said something like, "Well, you can't have a combat gynoid without internal weaponry, I guess" and she just went on a tear about how awesome it would be to have a 'womb-laser' and, mind you this is a direct quote, "Every lesbian should have one so they can vaporize men."

At which point I was scared to say anything else.

The gameplay was really, really wonky. But I endured, I can kill the final boss with little effort. The story was pretty much my drive for completing it.

Let me put it this way: You know early in the game when you have to play tag with the crewmen, and that becomes the key to escaping the Gnosis? I never succeeded.


#61

I just couldn't get into the characters or combat, and since that's all the game really was for the first 6 hours, I dropped it.
