And I agreed with that point. Your point contradicts that position, and I
agree with it.

... You mis-read my words.

I'm not saying there is no luck involved. I refuse to
accept the proposition that it is nothing but luck
(Jr.'s view).

I vehemently agree with you on this point.

See, I thought that when you said you agreed with me on
this point that you agreed with me on this point.

Vehemently, even.

I guess it was dumb of me to think that when you said
you agreed with me that it meant that you agreed with me.
I sort of thought that was how language was supposed
to work, but I guess you're gonna have to give me some
clues about how I mis-read that sentence.
