Listen to the wise Camera Chic

Many thanks to Daydreamer, Adamsdarling, Holliday, Sissy and Camera Chic for your congrats. I flipped over to my blog and saw six comments and couldn't figure out what could possibly have generated six comments. I guess I have a short memory.

DD, this makes our second grandchild, both from the same son and his wife, and 10 years apart. No need to rush things, I say. The other two sons are staying childless for now ... smart lads.

Speaking of Camera Chic, she has made an incredibly wise post on her blog that I just have to repeat here because of its wiseness and appropriateness.

"I don't even bother (well, usually) trying to argue with ignorant people anymore, because stupidity knows no logic. You say something, and they repeat themselves louder. You say something different, and they repeat themselves louder. On and on ...
"

The bolding is mine, because this is exactly where I am these days. It's disheartening on the one hand to read message boards lately where it goes on. But on the other hand, it's kind of funny to watch it happen because they do tend to make asses of themselves. They don't seem to get that I hear them when they say it once. Saying it 10 more times doesn't make me hear them any better and it just makes me hate their guts.

The only problem is the ignorant and stupid people, because they are ignorant and stupid, will continue to say the same thing over and over and the normal people (like my friend CC there) will just stay out of it because they know it's pointless and useless to get involved.

So while it may look like the ignorant and stupid people are winning, they're not. They're just producing a lot of hot air.
 
2 What they think.
