    I personally consider you the foremost expert on Sparko's mind.
    ONLY because he's not married.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Most married men actually have a significant part of their wife's mind, since she's been giving them pieces of it for the entire marriage.

          In the marital relationship, "compromise" means "Do whatever the wife tells you."

            You realize this has nothing to do with MM justifying his posting styles, yes? Are you trying to look like an inartful dodger?

                  No - that's pretty much what we were talking about - based on his apparent admiration for the first Solomon quote he posted. But he's since posted others.

                            So, I'm kind of curious. What benefit did you realize from this short exchange? Did it have a particular purpose?

                              He got pretty detailed with that broad brush.

                                The broad brush is not about the detail of the message - but the range of the audience it is aimed at.

                                In CP's case, "all marriages." I know that to be untrue because my marriage doesn't depend on "yes dear." (and yes, I know he was probably joshing - and so was my response).

                                As a general rule of thumb, I have found that "superlatives" are a fairly decent indicator of an untrue statement (i.e., hyperbole, outright lie, or just an error). Notice how Trump uses them extensively.
