    I'll never feel trapped here.

      Wait until I lure you properly. Many have fallen, you’re just a bit more slippery and a challenge, but that’s what intrigues me. I may get you yet. Grrrrrrr.

    I get sucked into the occasional argumentum ad infinitum with a certain Trumpican from time to time, when she posts something so provocative (and occasionally amoral) that I'm prodded by my conscience to bite back. I get out of it by just stopping responding to the thread. Personality cultists gotta personality cult.

    Sometimes I get hung up on the challenge questions and spend too much time (like, 10 minutes) thinking about something, but then I let it go. 

    It's been quite a while since I got sucked into any sort of argument. It's rare for me to even respond to something that I consider nonsense. (See above response from our friend down under).

    Like Slartibarfest, I have gotten mired in a political discussion with the same person and realize, after too long, that I'm not only wasting my breath trying to convince that person they're wrong, but that I would likely have more success if I argued with a rock.
