Never Try to Teach a Pig To Sing....

Robert Heinlein said "Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig."

This can be interpreted to mean that there's no point in trying to carry on an interaction that's impossible - there's nothing to be gained on either side.

Not that I care if I annoy the pig - but I don't care to waste my time trying to discourse rationally with anyone who is in fact, at the end of the day, not constrained by the bounds of rationality, be it my SS, or another poster on this forum.

Anybody with me? (grin)
