I do sometimes

A little. Back in high school, my sister would start daily pointless arguments over the dinner table and continue them for as long as possible. I wish I could've walked away from those.

No, trying to reason with an idiot is like administering medicine to the dead.

The same problem Pacino had

That depends on how emotionally invested I am in the person I'm arguing with, and how strongly I feel about what the argument is about. If it's with a stranger, and it's clear that my words are having no real effect and they seem hopelessly ignorant, it'a usually pretty easy to walk away. If it's someone I know well, and the relationship means a lot to me . . actually, then I tend to want to tread even more carefully, though I also want to make myself understood. But once I've made my point, if they still don't get it and don't have any real salient counterpoint, I'm usually pretty much done.

The more pointless it is the more curious I am as to why they want to fight me so hard. And I have this morbid curiosity to see how long they can continue arguing

Nope.. Comes a time in every argument when you realise one of two things... It's either an honest exchange of views or defending a point

I tell them a couple of things that often make them feel bad and then I walk away 😈 true things though.

I have to admit I'm guilty of trying too hard to get the other person to see my point.
If I have nothing better to do I’ll hang with it.

Unfortunately yes
Not usually, unless I have yet to realize how pointless the whole thing is. It’s a waste of my energy.

Yes, but I’m getting better at it. (The walking away, not the arguing)
No. I’ve been known to stop mid-sentence and walk away.

No. I think it's important to pick your battles.
Regarding [b]some[/b] topics, yes. I’m not quite as easily baited as when I was younger. 😏
