How to argue

 Lil Wayne brought you 'how to love' but today brace yourself because you will get a sneak peak into 'how to argue'

I am not an expert in many things yet but I am an expert when it comes to arguments, anyone who knows me will bet their lifetime earnings on the fact that I am arguing about something about 80 percent of the time. That's because I'm good at it, I am not a lawyer and do not want to be, I argue because
it is fun. The thing a lot of people fail to understand though is that like many things, there are rules.
Rules that automatically lose you an argument without you even knowing it so I will try to touch a few so that my readers will be at an advantage at the next argument on politics, sports, fashion, celebrities etc etc.

1. Do not lose your cool or get mad, once you start raising your voice when its not out of excitement you might as well throw in the towel

2. Avoid using definitives or exact numbers, statistics change continuously therefore words like
possibly, around and -ish should be staples and your best friends during argument

3. Civil rights movement, this is a hallmark nothing bad came from it, a secret weapon so if you can work it *viably* into your argument. This one time I was arguing health policy with this lady and her point was weak and feeble but she threw in civil rights, all I could do was bow and shake my head  it was over! lol

4. Believe your point, do not talk about something that you do not agree with ( dumb for real "hide your kids hide your wife" )

5. Rationalize, best part of argument is when you can convince person (s) to accept that you have a legitimate point. So having some actual statistics never hurt.

Wildcards - racist/ partisan - should be used with discretion, I avoid them in an argument because what if the person is actually a racist or a hardcore partisan ( i.e hate Obama, hate all republicans). Only thing is if you do know these points before hand and they do not collaborate with your views then try to stay away from arguing with such individuals ( could get violent)
                     
REMEMBER an argument is won by whoever does not lose it

I would like testimonies from whoever can adopt these techniques or anything I should add  to my repertoire.
