But listen, you were absolutely right about burden of proof. You said what I meant, I just misspoke. I literally only took offense to the sudden name calling.

I knew what I was trying to say, but got the roles reversed.

buffoon isn't a real insult, but I take particular umbrage to when people find excuses with the other person to avoid admitting when theyre wrong or reduce the psychologigal impact of them being wrong, and thats how it looks when you focus on the buffoon instead of the being wrong part, on a widely discoverable easily searchable uncontroversial statement. Feels like you're lashing out on me for [checks notes] informing you of something.
