Saving a bad position

[Jannes]

I am fascinated by the ways people can finesse themselves out of a really bad position. 

I want to find the common patterns accross different activities from sport, fighting, debating, economy, dating, whatever .. so post freely if you have examples.

Nice quote 

Connects well to a thought I had about the question of this thread. You can save a bad position by doing a paradigm change and seeing in which way you actually are in a superior position. Obi Wan was superior on a mental level to Darth Maul. If you are getting attacked and demonized but you have the facts on your side you are superior on that front.
