Well, I did it again. I read a political chat board.
Why do I keep doing this? It's some sort of attachment. Nothing of any value is said by either side. No minds are changed. No one is enlightened or informed. People — including me — just rant.
So I'm asking myself what I get out of this, and the answer is I don't know. If I could identify the payoff, it would help me to stop.

When I find myself feeling quite opinionated about something and feeling the need to expound, debate and just generally be a blow hard, if I check my mind carefully, I find an attachment to being right. I know I'm right about XYZ, and here's why. Wha wha what? You disagree? Your argument is bollocks, and here's why I'm right.
I don't know. Maybe it's just me.
