Default meanings ?

I don't understand these sentences below, I need your help.

1. no argument there
2. I may as well get used to it
3. If I thought that there was a chance that you would forgive me , I
may have chosen differently

4. you deal with it and move on
5. it's still raining , that makes it four days in a row
6.words and speeches sound great, but they don't add up to anything
7. "Joker " is "poker " with "J" (or with "p" , sorry, I don't remember clearly)


I appreciate your help!

Quote:
1. no argument there
I agree with you. That's why I am not going to argue.

Quote:
2. I may as well get used to it
There's nothing I can do about it. Thus, I may as well admit that.

Quote:
3. If I thought that there was a chance that you would forgive me , I may have chosen differently
I could use a bit more context there.

Quote:
4. you deal with it and move on
Don't let the matter disturb you. Don't become fixated on it.

Quote:
5. it's still raining , that makes it four days in a row
It had rained for three straight days. Now it is raining for a fourth day, making it four straight days it has rained.

Quote:
6.words and speeches sound great, but they don't add up to
anything
Actions speak louder than words. Deeds are more important than words.

Quote:
7. "Joker " is "poker " with "J" (or with "p" , sorry, I don't remember clearly)
If you say so. :wink:

Actually, I'm not sure what that one means. More context might help.

Thanks for the wonderful questions.

:D
