okay so yesterday someone in my study group had the audacity to say my argumentative style is 'aggressive' and 'combative' and i said thank you that's the point. we're law students. we're literally training to fight people with words. if you want gentle conversation go join a knitting circle. but no apparently i'm the problem for being 'too prepared' and 'not letting anyone else talk.' excuse me for having a brain that moves faster than your ability to form a coherent rebuttal. honestly i'm still mad about it and i will be taking this to my grave.
