This is good (via Feministe).

But only because I think it was created by someone who knows me. And because I have been spending way too much time lately trying to prove why other people are wrong and why I am right. Because I am never wrong. Or something like that.

Of course... if Hillary Clinton would just drop out of the presidential race that would make things a lot better. I would not have to prove nearly as many people wrong! :)

Or I could just learn to be less argumentative. That would probably help a little bit. Okay... maybe more than a little bit. For some reason I use blogging as an excuse to continue to be argumentative. That is in part the nature of blogs, which are almost designed to create conflict and tension. But it is also in part true that I seek out conflict on blogs, because it is one place where I am somewhat "allowed" to argue.

Now... this doesn't mean that I will stop arguing. But I know that I need to step back at times and relax. And I need to stop trying to be right all the time, and instead just start being Dave, whether that is right or wrong.

One day I will learn...
