Life is too short to argue with idiots. Ignore them let them wallow in their stupidity.
Yeah don’t let them drag you down and beat you with experience.
I’ve always had a bone to pick with that expression.
What experience? If it’s an old fart with outdated views, yeah maybe they can keep complaining about shit that doesn’t matter anymore, but dumbshit people my age or younger? What experience?
Experience in being an idiot as far as I remember the quote.
Thanks that makes sense
It works better in context, the quote is “don’t argue with idiots: they’ll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.” I’ve always taken that as “experience at being an idiot”. The “yeah, well, muh wisdom/experience” copout is unrelated.
Thanks that makes much more sense
You might want to learn what the quote means before you develop an opinion on it.
