Could a chat be subjective and a discussion objective?

Well, to be honest, I had many discussions on subjective issues (life after dead, feelings, principled of conduct, etc) so I don't think that's a right difference.
Want to discuss it?

The term tosspot, one of abuse, has come to be a synonym for 't*sser', someone who 't*sses' or m*sturbates. However, it originally referred to commodes as used in medieval London. This is evidenced by the final song in Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare., viz:
But when I came unto my beds,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
With toss-pots still had drunken heads,
For the rain it raineth every day.
on recent news that wikipedia's founders are creating a new site as the present one has gained notoriety as being widely innaccurate due to it's allowance of users to add items, Now i wonder who has been adding stuff to back up their claims?? Surely Holmes you can't mean........
In a book I got it says Chat is "easy familiar talk". Discussion is "examined by argument". Since most posts start with a point of discussion but transfer (degenerate) to chat. I can only think that the "powers to be" are wishfully thinking and hoping that we move to a higher order of dis'course or is it discourse' . There cannot be a General Discussion because a result has to be achieved by discussion which is not a generally known argument. Arguments should be based on facts not generallisation. Therefore the use of General Discussion is a the use of conflicting terms. However, if you were to think that the discussion topics should be general i.e. Arbitrary(capricious,despotic), then that is acceptable. So, a better title would be Arbitrary Discussion. What I have just given you is an example of a discussion i.e. an examination by argument, now let the chat begin
