bat in the saddle againnnnn...a/k/batzulger is still spewing out words Part the Sixth
RE: bat in the saddle againnnnn...a/k/batzulger is still spewing out words Part the Sixth
Yes, you did. If you had simply said 'Batz, plants have walls, animals have membranes you idiot!' I would have remembered that simple fact and changed it. Instead, you decided to get all explainy why. Here, let me be pedantic!

This is the Merriam-Webster definition:
Definition of pedant
1a: one who is unimaginative or who unduly emphasizes minutiae in the presentation or use of knowledge
b: one who makes a show of knowledge

Now, wasn't that fun to learn?

No, I didn't think so either. Do not assume that the person you're correcting has no idea what you're talking about. Maybe they actually made a mistake and when being reminded of it will go, 'Oh yeah! That's right!', but pedantic explanations piss me off.
