Fucking FUCKING fucking fucking fucking ego!!! (I've found that I like that word when I'm angry)
The ugly side of a man/woman's ego rares up and blinds the crap out of the person...When you're trying to make a point and win a war, you've to lose a battle. And if you've had time to prepare for the war, you should see who your opponent he is and when you've to concede. And most of all, you've to FUCKIN Listen! LISTEN to what the other party is saying cos not only may the other party be making valid points but may also be making mistakes, on which you can capitalize by out thinking the opponent and offering the RIGHT point of view, politely (a quality which I'm grossly lacking in this post...I see it yes, thank you)
Back to the ugly side of ego...It is, one of the ugliest and most evil things I have seen on this planet so far...This is primarily because:
1. It successfully renders a person blind to "the big picture/the right thing/the truth" (sometimes "what is the truth/the right thing" is debatable...I concede)
2. Not only the point above, but it also provides the person that is under its control, a passion and a fallacy to continue to remain under its influence and ignore the truth. A strong personal viewpoint transcends true and correct reason. A massacre also occurs in the process.
BAH!

No idea what you are talkin about. Seems like a lotta generalizations to me. Examples would help...
all arguments are meant to leave one person bitter and the other one happy because of conflict of interests.
agreements are meant to leave both of them happy.
it is really an art to know how to arrive at win/win for all involved. turning arguments into agreements.
EGO is evil? standing up to something u believe in, passionately, is evil? its the most sacred thing one can do to oneself. especially in an argument. wogah!
basically, calmness irbeku in an argument, nija. but never give in! ego rules. it is all u are and have.
