That would make me the most offensive person here, lol.
It doesn't offend me but one of my pet peeves are certainly people who have a problem having mistakes pointed out. If it's petty and not a big deal then no need to let it bother you
I much prefer pedantic people over people who care about mistakes being pointed out when learning one's mistakes however small is a good thing. Hehe. Doesn't offend me though. It's just annoying when people whine when I correct them. It feels egotistical. If it's not a big deal then so what if you made a mistake, ya know?
Lol obviously we disagree there but I'm also in the minority. Happy to be in the minority. I think it's humble to be pedantic, lol.
Funny, I've never viewed you as a pedant, Alasdair. I see pedants as miserable dullards and I don't see you that way.
Or maybe I don't know you well enough.
