Depends. Do you want the 5-minute argument or the full half-hour?

I limit myself to politics and education policy and why Law and Order: Criminal Intent is better than all of the others despite the fact that Vincent D’Onofrio can be a little ‘quirky’ (to put it nicely).
Oh and I also like to argue that Merlot is not a ‘good’ wine.

I’ve always heard that one should never argue about politics or religion, but those are the subjects I like to argue (discuss?) about the most.

I like to argue about the relative quality of books I haven’t read. I think I trust snap judgments on literary quality based on blurbs and reputation more than I trust my own judgment after reading something.

i love that you like to argue about your arguing skills…seems like you’d win that one every time.

Well pick one and let’s get started. I am curious to know what’s possibly debatable about the length of men’s trousers. Having suffered a powerful growth spurt in my early teens, I’m particularly sensitive on this issue, and always buy my trousers too long.
I started to make a list, but it’s going to become a blog post, methinks.

Oh, longer is better. It’s the too short that kills me. Pants should not graze ankles.

Okay I took your challenge and added a listy category to my blog. I now post Friday love list: In honor of you, and also feed you directly to my blog, because my word dear you put me in stitches and brighten up my day. I love it when I can go somewhere and find someone as honest, and strange (in a good way) as I am, and I can be myself (just as she is). I adore you Meg!
