Why can't people just make up their minds?

On My Lot, I've noticed that there are people that will literally say anything to be contradictory. Even if that means they have to contradict their own previous point of view. Have you met such individuals? Why do they act this way? Is it simply a matter of them wanting to change their minds? Or, are they trying to be argumentative to start a fight?

It seems to me that some people just come on here to start an argument no matter what the topic is. I guess these people are just really bored and like to stir up trouble. I just have to either laugh at these people or just ignore them. I don't get mad just because I know that's what they want.

You are so right. Walking away is the best defense.

I do not understand why a person would want to spend their entire life in a continuous argument....with ever changing partners.... How a person can call someone else mean and vicious names for simply having a differing opinion... How a person can judge another without ever having experienced the things this other is going through... How a person can judge another because of their differences of belief, color, culture, language, religion, ethnicity..... All of these theories are lost on me...I do not comprehend someone being so narrow-minded and inhuman...sadly there are alot of people like this or partially like this...

Some people have very sad lives and wish to share their sadness with the world. Often they do so by arguing with anyone that will listen. That is what is truly sad.
