I'll be damned, I was almost certain it wasn't an antipyretic, but it looks like I was wrong. Thanks for correcting me.
You didn't need to use such condescending language though, there was no need to be rude.
Apologies. I do think making it sting a little when correcting someone on something they should have double checked, is warranted, if for no other reason than to make it clear to others reading which take to go home with.
But in response to your edit I've softened my correction as well.
When you post wrong information online you're responsible for perpetuating idiocy. Someone who had better things to do had to go out of their way, waste their time, to correct you.
Think before you post.
I made a mistake on a public forum, I was corrected, then I edited my post to acknowledge my mistake.
Your comment suggests that no one should ever make a mistake. Your comment is an insult to the very nature of human behavior, that mistakes are an inevitably, and should be embraced and understood.
Your comment is insulting and naive, and shows your lack of development beyond a typical teenage cynic. For your sake, I genuinely hope you're in your teenage years, because otherwise the likelihood of you developing into an empathetic functioning adult isn't great.
You can try to minimize your stupidity, but spreading blatant, easily-researched misinformation is way more than an innocent mistake."
The fact that you feel compelled to make excuses for something you just never should have typed in the first place (embrace your stupid, unnecessary lie? Are you serious?)
What we need to teach people is that they don't need to chime in to online conversations with unsolicited lies.
You're a nasty little troll. It does make me smile to think about how miserable you must be though.
Aw shucks, another situation where the truth would make you sad
