I know what you're saying and I have adjusted my methods many times. There doesn't seem to be some sure-fire method that works the majority of the time so I often shoot from the hip based on my take on the situation. I have found that rustling jimmies does set the stage better for my words to stick. I think it has something to do with how much more time someone will give me if I argue with them so the message makes more impact even if it only sinks in later. Maybe one of these days I'll find the proper formula and it won't be so rough.
