I think it would be more like each side in an argument thinks that they are right, and they don't listen to the other side.

Agree with Imron! It also means each has his/her own reasons or point of view, depending on where they come from.

Thanks for your responses. That illuminates things.

I am now curious to know who you might say lairie faire or neither here nor there. If you want to put across that someone is just talking nonsense or not getting to the point. I will post it here when I come across something that I think means that.

Hi Thanks for your response.

It should be airy fairy. It is something that is up in the air and and not really define. You can also say "it is neither here nor there" which is used by politicians to counter the others' arguments.

It means"everyone talks about the same thing ,but can't have a similar conclusion .and also nobody can persuade the others "
