Discussions on various topics come up anywhere there is people with certain thoughts. These discussions will come up from out of nowhere and from anywhere. When discussions becomes a heated debate as two parties utter back and forth then it is an argument. Winning those arguments, whether you know or do not know what you are talking about, is a great feeling. Here it is how to win arguments, when you have no clue of what the argument entails, by making things up, using meaningless but weighty-sounding words and phrases, and by using snappy comebacks.
Making things up is harder then it seems. Made up phrases just can’t be off the top of your head, they have to be thought out. Suppose, in a country’s economy argument, you are trying to prove that country’s peoples are underpaid are position you based solely on the fact that You are underpaid, and you are demand if you are going to let a bunch of people be better off. DON’T say: “Think people are underpaid.” Say: “The average person’s salary in 1981 rupees adjust for the revised tax base is Rs. 1,452.81 per annum, which s Rs. 836.0 before he means gross poverty level.” This second statement suggest the same thought, yet expresses it in in a way that sounds n more sophisticated and in turn the arguer looks better.
Next, use meaningless but weighty-sounding words and phrases. To do this, a lies needs to be entered into memory. Stylish words and phrases include: let me put it this way, in terms of, vis-à-vis, per se, as it were, qua, and so to speak. Memorize Latin abbreviations such as “Q.E.D.,” and “i.e.” these are all short for “I speak Latin, and you do not.”
Here’s how to use these words and phrases. Suppose you want to say: The people of society would like to order appetizers more, often, but they don’t have enough money.” Nobody wins arguments talking like that. But you will win if you say: Let me put it this way. In terms of appetizers vis-a-vis people of society, they would like to order them more often, so to speak, but they do not have enough money per se, as it were. Q.E.D.” Only a fool would challenge the statement.
