What is the appropriate method to tap out when you don't want to be thrown to the rationality mat any more?
What's the best way for me to stop a thread when I no longer wish to participate, as my emotions are turning sour, and I recognize I will begin saying bad things?
I've twice intentionally taken ~48 hours away from this site after I said something stupid. Give it a try.
Just leave the conversations hanging; come back days or weeks later if you want. Also, admitting you were wrong goes a long way if you realize you said something that was indeed incorrect, but the rationality police won't come after you if you leave a bad conversation unresolved.
