Funny moment

I was on the phone today with a friend. Here's how part of the conversation went: Me: I guess I was being a pedantic a$$. Him: Pedantic? Who even says that they're being pedantic?! Me: Pedantic people. I thought that was pretty funny. :-D

Errr... which bit was the funny bit? :~

Ignore the sub literate "mathletes" in the peanut gallery, they'd find an equation far funnier I imagine. :)

It's all good. I didn't expect my thread to receive much in the way of positive feedback. I posted it for the few people who happen to "get it." :)

It's not their fault: the great majority here have brains that are more math oriented than literary oriented; they often seem to miss a good turn of phrase and get all logical and boring about it instead. :)
