Do you understand it?

I was trying to explain some concept to M and he was, in my opinion, just refusing to accept the logic that I was putting forwards. To me it seemed simple and I was trying to get him to grasp what I was talking about.

The conversation went much like a tennis match.

He said “Blah, blah ...”

I said “Blah di blah ...”

He said “Blah, blah ...”

I said “Blah di blah ...” and so forth.

Then after his last volley when it appeared we had started to discuss another matter entirely I retorted “That doesn’t make sense!”

His response? “Neither does love.”

Match point.

Silence.
