You know, I don't like being told I'm wrong when I'm wrong.

Oh, I'll suck it up, I'll educate myself and endeavour not to make the same mistake in the future, but man, I don't like it. (Mind, I prefer it to being ignorant, so please, correct me if I'm making a mistake.)

I really dislike being told I'm wrong when I am, in fact, right. I dislike it even more when the person ostensibly "correcting" me feels that her point will be better made WHEN SHE TALKS LIKE THIS!!!! And when that person has a note on her user info about how we shouldn't be condescending or belligerent... *sighs*

Actually, that part's pretty funny. Because, let me tell you, TALKING LIKE THIS is both in one swell foop.

I usually get the people who get snide with me. I think I'd prefer the person with all caps, it's not nearly as irritating as someone getting nasty, because at least the all caps individual I can write off as being stupid.

Stupidity isn't an excuse for being a mean person, but it doesn't feel like as much of a waste when an intelligent person is just vicious.
