The best way to win an argument? Shout louder than everyone else and people will simply assume you're right

Being confident and loud is the best way to win an argument - even if you are wrong, a new study suggests.

Researchers from Washington State University drew this conclusion after studying the activity of Twitter users. The more opinionated they were, the more influential and trustworthy they were perceived to be.

They analysed more than a billion tweets posted during various American sporting events, including the 2013 Super Bowl, to the test whether being accurate or being confident made Twitter users more popular.

Despite professional pundits and amateur fans making a similar amount of correct and incorrect predictions, the tweeters who 'yelled' louder were seen as more trustworthy and had more followers.

IS THAT THE BIGGEST FONT YOU COULD

oh, it is.
 
YOU SUCK. EVERYONE SUCKS. I'M THE ONLY PERSON WHO KNOWS ANYTHING. EVERYONE HAS TO LISTEN TO ME BECAUSE EVERYTHING I SAY IS RIGHT AND YOU'RE ALL UNWASHED MORONS.

Oh, I'm sorry, is that not what this thread was about? Sorry, I'll go sit in the corner and be quiet.

That only in the USA?

Could be. Mental defectives are more common these days.
