I have been in plenty of debates and arguments in my life. They never lead anywhere and they are always about winning. Maybe a few have lead to some further understanding and knowledge. I can always tell when I am winning a verbal conflict when the opposing part drops the line, "Well you can't compare apples and oranges".
This is total bullshit not just for the sake of the fact that it's a cop out. It's also a load of rubbish because you totally can compare apples and oranges. Here's a list:
-Apples are sweeter; even the sour ones.
-Oranges are more sour.
-You have to peel an orange while you can bite into an apples. Apples are more user friendly. Oranges require some disassembly.
-Apples come in a variety of colors. Oranges comes in orange
-Both grow on trees. Not only can you compare them; they have something in common.
-Oranges have more vitamin C.
-Apples have more fiber. Apples make you poop more.
-Apples grow on rose trees. Oranges don't.
-You can make an apple pie. I have yet to see an orange pie.
-You can make cider out of apples. There isn't anything called Orange Cider.
-Apples are crunchy and juicy. Oranges are just juicy.
-Both go well on salads.
-Apples and oranges both go well with alcohol.
Yep. Just compared them.
