Last Word Game

Some times we debate and sometimes we just argue. Inevitably when we do either a party is backed into a corner and has no reasonable explanation or reply. The stubbornness of that party usually resorts to, as CyberLN likes to say, "word-salad". Sometimes it's just an inane response but still, it is a post. It becomes a game of who gets the "last word."
So I propose a game of famous last word responses. They may be anything like "That is the way it has always been."
I'll start.

"Because I said so!"

When you're as old as I am, you'll understand that I'm right.

This is a low blow, given

This is a low blow, given that the OP himself used this argument xD.

My father's variant to this when he feels trap and wants to end a debate (I'm 40, and he still uses it): I'm older than you, so I've read more and lived longer, thus I know more than you about everything, hence you must respect every word I say, therefore you should admit than I'm right, otherwise, shut up!

But I'm actually old enough to say that the OP! But then again I'm young enough to remember how annoying it was when my father said it to me.

Your story about your father reminded me of the Cat Stevens song, Father and Son.

All the times that I cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right, I'd agree
But it's them they know not me

Cat Stevens has a wonderful voice and wrote some amazing and insightful songs until he got hijacked by Islam and became Yusuf Islam.

"Epiricalism isn't the only method of proof" after making a claim regarding the cosmos.

There's quite simply not enough oven gloves in this world....

Another one by mykcob4:

Another one by mykcob4: "Troll" :P

It was really funny the comment on the Kalam Cosmological Argument, because there were plenty of answers that kept coming before his, as long as the debate progresses, so the "Troll" post was there as a tag line to every new answer. Everytime I read it, it makes me smile.
