Have you ever got into a argument with a total stranger?

Luckily for me, i have not got into any arguments with any1 yet!!!

tuckersheri yes I did because this ditsy woman clerk waited on the man behind me, leaving me standing there so I shoved in front of the handsome jerk who was leering at the young clerk and said, pardon me, I was and am ahead of this gentleman,thats questionable, and you will wait on me or I will call the manager.well the manager overheard the whole thing, he told the young woman to wait on me at once or he would fire her. So needless to say I did get waited. talk about Christmas spirit, she sure did not have any.She was going to give me a bad time, and was lipping off at me, but I,usually a wuss, decided to stick up for myself.

Yes I have argued with total strangers on some occasions. A few times it was with sales representatives or customer care reps. I had to fight, coz they tried to act smarter than they actually were. They made up lame excuses. So I initially spoke to them in a calm tone. Once they started talking stuff I knew was wrong, I had to give them a piece of my mind. I have also argued with a guy who cut in line, when there was a long queue at a counter. But apart from that, I am a peace loving bird.

A few times actually, at the jeepney, the department store, there are a lot of instances where I don't like the service or his or her actions bother me. Or they are rude and all, so I confront them, I hate being treated badly.

Yes I agree that it is really not good to be involved in an argument with somebody you hardly know. That is ideal...but sometimes we simply cannot control the situation... That happens to me... I just can't allow myself not to say something when infact I know that what he did was wrong. I need to voice out myself... I cannot remain quiet for he will just do that again and again... not just to me but to others as well. I am not going to be in details but my point is... anyone should not be afraid to stand for what they believe especially if you know that you are right. Whoever is that person may be... we should speak up.

well i was on facebook and a person i didnt know commented on my facebook picture calling me a bottom feeder for no reason and now every one on facebook is calling me a bottom feeder :(

You never know who your dealing with when getting into a argument with someone you don't know LOL thats very true..but in my case, neither do they to answer your question though, yes, I've been in plenty of arguements with strangers over the yrs come to think of it.

I just had an argument with a stranger this afternoon in the grocery store. One of the customers tried to over take me --it's my turn to be attended to by the cashier. I told her to fall in line and wait for her turn. She rudely answered back that she's in a hurry-- i told her "i am in a hurry too- so fall in line". She was so mad and continued to murmur foul words...well she must learn her lesson.

I am sharing my own experience with you.Yes i had got into an argument with a total stranger.The incident took place at New Delhi Railway Station when i was boarding my train Swaran Shatabdi express from new delhi to Amritsar.When the train left the New Delhi Station a stranger comes and asked me to standup by saying that it is my seat and he shows his reservation ticket.I was surprised to see such mistake.I had gone into big argument with the stranger.when he start misbehaving i call the T.T.After half an hour i got my seat confirmed from the T.T.That is the one incident which i never forgot in my life.

Oh no I haven't and I would never want to have one. It's a stranger and we don't know what kind of a person they are. If the stranger provokes an argument or fight then I'll find my way to walk away out of the situation. shadow41

HI tuckersheri, I never get into an argument with a total stranger anytime, that leads to many problems, Its better not to entertain strangers first. We should stay away from them. We cannot tell how a person attitude will be. Everything happens in a fraction of seconds.

Well, I have a couple of times, but this one I can't forget, when I was still working in a rail transportation, I was boarded on one of the coaches which is filled and there is this one tough guy who keeps on leaning to me. In a polite manner I told him if he can stop leaning because I'm getting pushed behind with the other passenger but he shouted at me and told me he's a police officer (he's on civilian clothes), I've got irritated and I told him your a police so I think you should act one and there the argument got started. I immediately called security as soon as the door opens because he's already threatening to pull something inside his jacket. Anyway all you've said is correct, we should avoid engaging in any argument with anybody specially if they are strangers.

I remember getting into a vicious argument with a stranger over religion. This guy kept reading scripture to me. I have read the bible and know what it says, if you are going to convince me of something it better come more or less from your mind. Anyways, I ended up getting so fed up and frustrated that I threw the bible across the apartment and yelling,"When you can think for yourself, look me up, *ssh*l*.

I did yesterday we went to the grocery store and I went in and this guy in a riding cart almost ran into me. I could have gotten hurt if he had hit me and I just didn't think I said thanks stupid just run over me. And said quite a lot more I have never taken anything from anyone and I am not going to start now. I don't recommend getting into an argument with anyone either but don't take anything either!

I tend to avoid situations that will cause me to have to argue with strangers. I hate entering into a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent and in arguing with a stranger you have no idea what they bring to the game. They may be very intelligent and well-informed with a solid argument to back up their opposing view or they could just be spouting the same drivel they've been spoonfed by the whatever less than reputable news service they choose to read/watch. And I'm not patient enough to argue with someone who doesn't know what they are talking about or who wants to argue for the pure sake of arguing.

ok to start my argument story im a hothead that tries really hard to hide it so as not to offend people especially in my previous workplace which was a home depot (they now fire people on first offense over customer complaints i think thats a bit harsh but not why i left) so i mostly worked at the returns counter and helped watch the service desk which just sets one up to get in an argument with total strangers every day mostly people trying to fool the "uneducated" or atleast they think so into giving them money for incorrectly used or worn out or stolen items. so as youve probably guessed ive been in quite a few arguments with strangers over rules mostly but atleast there was always a counter between us. the worst ones are when someones credit card gets declined anyone out there reading this if it happens to you dont blame the cashier its not thier fault and they really dont need your rudeness on top of everything else. sorry ill shutup now

i have been into an argument with a salesgirl of a department store. she was just too rude to answer questions. i was asking how much a meter of a cloth costs and she told me that it is expensive. i felt bad because it conveyed that i cannot afford to buy it. it is utterly demeaning to customers to do that. companies are now employing marketing tools and now conducting customer service seminars to handle customers well and here is she, driving customers away.

I have ever gotten into a argument with a total stranger before. About 3 months ago, when I was chatting with my old friends on the Internet. I was so happy with my friends for there had been a long time since we last contacted each other. However, then, I met a stranger in my QQ(a chatting tool) friends list and he/she insulted me without any reasons. I was so confused and baffled. At first, I turned a blind eye to the words. But later, he/she continued hurling insults at me and I had no choice but to block he/she. From where I stand, we'd better not get into a argument with a total stranger, replacing we should turn a blind eye to them.

Obviously,its not gonna be adventurous. It wasn't as though argument was the best option but i opted for it that fateful day to get things sorted out swiftly. I have but it wasn't a feud.
