I have a friend of mine who keeps making up these justifications as to why I do something...For example, there is always a "But this and But that". I told my friend I was doing a martial art and I said three main reasons I got into it. "It's a great cardio workout, you get to do a sport which I was always wanted to be involved in and you learn a skill to defend yourself" Then he goes on and says "Yeah but when are you ever going to need to defend yourself?" Then I gave a list of times I almost got attacked and he goes "YeAh BuT, ThAt WaS AgeS Ago!" I'll say another time and he'll be like "Yeah, But"...you get the point. He keeps making these stupid excuses as to why it isn't right to why you shouldn't do something.

How do you deal with these types of people?
