Oooh, bad times.

I got called an Emmet for years. No longer, luckily. Although I did once have to leave a pub because some pissed Cornish woman was waving her Cornish passport around and yelled: "If there was a fucking English twat in this fucking pub, I'd kill them!"

I didn't fancy my chances (and I was drunk enough to have yelled: "FUCK YOU, IN BRED!" had I stayed... ).

It's not a matter of letting me win. It's more about me actually being right and you know it, so you're trying to get away from it because I got an E and U the wrong way round.
Well, no, it's not about the E and U, that was what was called "taking the piss" and is what many people with a sense of humour do. "Ending the argument because you know you're never going to agree" is also something a lot of people (other than you, obviously) do!

You should have done, Lydia's aunt seems to think it's funny to say 'i'll do it dreckly' to me. I think she just sounds stupid.

There's a place called Kingsley Village in Fraddon that sells some seriously overpriced (but quite nice) stuff and has an ice cream parlour and restaurant. They sell clocks that say: "Do It Dreckly" on the face and the numbers say "1-ish," "2-ish" etc... If it didn't say the dreckly bit I'd have considered getting one (were they not about a million quid each ).

I didn't end the argument because I knew I was right. You couldn't say I was wrong when I said Great Britain was the island consisting of England, Scotland and Wales.

Why should I come to agreement with you over something that is wrong on your part?

Why is ending the argument such a good thing? Would it have been a good thing to end the argument with Hitler because he didn't have a sense of humour and couldn't come to an agreement?

I was going to use another example, but the Hitler example is the most well known and quickest to write.
