“I’ve dealt with so many people who get upset over looking something up, and I have no idea why.

I’ll say [X], the person says no, it’s actually [Y]. So I go ‘Oh, okay.’ and then look up the correct answer. This is usually followed by some ‘Oh, you just had to make sure you were right, didn’t you?’

No? It’s not about who is right, it’s about what is right. If we both say conflicting things, then one of us is wrong. If I look it up and I’m right, cool. But if I’m wrong then I want to know so that I learn something and next time I have the right answer.”
