My children are both natural born arguers, but their styles differ. Otter is a debater, crafting arguments and counter-arguments and counter-counter arguments until he's exhausted you.

Repeat.) Nevertheless, in this contrariness sometimes lies brilliance, as in this exchange, Actual Conversations With My Kids #003.
