    I didn’t say there was no attempt.

    Saying you have nothing else to say or do is “thought terminating” you’re stifling discussion rather than encouraging investigation of potential solutions.

      no you’re not.

      and yes you did:

      You may as well say “I’ve encountered another problem which I’m not going to attempt to resolve.

        I can’t believe I have to say this but “I’m not going to attempt to resolve this” is not the same as “I have not made any attempt to resolve this”.

        Honestly though, you’re very welcome to continue spouting dumb phrases like “it is what it is” if you find that helpful.

          you’re so full of shit. you know what you meant. I know what you meant. that’s not a phrase that acknowledges past attempts at all. you’re breaking basic axiom of cooperative communication just to double down on your dumb opinion. people are not robots, learn to live with them.
