    People get too embarrassed about publicly being wrong. I went in on someone recently in a comment thread, typed up like a whole paragraph tearing down what I thought was an indefensible point.

    Homeboy replied like “hey you misread my comment”

    Rather than edit everything away to hide my shame, I just replied with “you’re right, I’m drunk on a cruise!” and it was honestly a highlight of the voyage. Maybe some randys can get the same enjoyment out of rereading the interaction, and that’s way more than anyone would get out of “edit: whoops”

      The amount of times I’ve seen the “oops, you’re right, sorry/thanks!” equivalent on Lemmy makes me think this place really has attracted some good people.

      Disclaimer: yes we have trolls, shit posts, hot takes, etc.

        Enjoying messing around doesn’t mean people aren’t good. Shit posts in particular show a level of awareness, otherwise it’s just a post.

      Bruh if getting politely corrected on social media is the highlight of your holiday, you gotta find a better type of holiday.

      That’s honestly a really great approach. I’m going to do that next time I fuck up at work. Boss: “The production server is down and the database is hosed!”

      Me: Omg I’m so sorry! I’m drunk on a cruise!

      If I was embarrassed I would have deleted the post.
