What's the diff between pontificating and stating? Both impart information. Why does the style/method of delivery matter?

    Those who pontificate are annoying and pompous. Stating is "Just the facts Ma'am...just the facts."

    Some folks can only communicate if they pontificate. Blowhards and know-it-alls and condescending supercilious arrogant twits. Why that is I do not know. Thank you for your reply Ele! :)

    I like that description. Do you know anyone like that? My brother-in-law comes to mind. My son, too, in a way.

    There is one guy who has tendency to do that but he is a long-time friend so it comes with the territory. I have encountered them frequently on internet social sites. Well I've only been on two as you know...Answerbag and Answermug. I seem to attract them though far less now since I have my own little corner. Folks have to go out of their way to find me and thankfully some of them are just too lazy to bother for which I am eternally thankful! Thank you for your reply Ele! :)
