The Verbal War

Charles is one of those guys who pretends he doesn’t like winning,

but he liked to win and hates losing.

I had friends like him, so I was not surprised.

At the thanksgiving dinner, Charles was bluffing about how he defeated me in a first-person-shooter game.

Of course, I fought back my juicy comments: “I don’t mind losing in games, as long as I’m winning in my real life; not like some people may win in video games, but lose in their real life.”

Everyone started laughing and Charles’ brother gave me a high five.

And of course, the rest of the conversation was all about Charles defended for himself for not being a loser.

However, since I control the flow of the conversation at the moment, I just followed up with more attacks.

 He finally ran out of words and said “Whatever.”

Next time, he would need to be better prepared to argue with me.
