    You know what’s funny about these kinds of posts is the type of dude you’re replying to literally NEVER comes back to say “shit, my bad”.

    Like, I don’t get it, someone corrects me anywhere and I’m like “thanks, bro, appreciate the correction”…but I’ve never seen these dudes do that.

    Wonder why?

      If you regularly respond this way, you’re in the minority. Most people respond to a correction emotionally, as if their authority or competence were being attacked when one mistake was pointed out.

        I think you’re right on the money. And knowing this often makes it very obvious when somebody responds artificially in order to try to feed you some kinda propaganda.

        Thank god for my ADHD stunting my ability to regulate and understand emotions, then!

        At least I can mostly control that shit from a distance.
