I've found that whatever proposition or opinion is stated, there are always conflicting arguments for and against. For example - somebody's:
"Well dressed, sophisticated older woman"
is somebody else's:
"Overdressed, mutton-dressed-as -lamb!"
The one person's:
"Interesting and erudite book on the 'Barnacles and Whelks and Gastropod species of the Korean Shoreline"
is the:
"Boring load of rubbish about shellfish" of the second person.
To one listener:
"He was knowledgeable and fascinating!"
To the next:
"He had verbal diarrhoea!"
