Critical Thinking

Conversations can be tricky, especially when you're talking to someone that you've never met before.

This one guy - I swear he must have graduated from Bong University. He had a masters in Critical Thinking from Reefer College. 

He was very sure of himself, and he liked to talk. Everything that he was saying seemed important to him. It just didn't make much sense.

It wasn't long before I had to get out of there. I couldn't take it anymore. I told the guy that I had to get to the store before they ran out of Corn Flakes. He said something about GMO destroying the planet as I walked away. I didn't look back.

If you find yourself in a similar situation, remember that it's not your fault. You didn't turn that person into a rambling lunatic. They were a mess long before they met you. 

Your responsibility is simple. Make a clean and graceful exit, and do it as soon as possible. You cannot win this battle. You cannot convince that person of anything by means of rational discussion. Unless you're interested in going to bed with them - for reasons that I won't judge - do yourself a favor, cut your losses, and get the hell out of there.
