Wow, you're pretty obnoxious.

Guess you're right, though

You tried calling them out with a “gotcha” to make yourself look smart and then got told off, but they’re the obnoxious one?

No, I called them out on something I thought they were wrong about because they were being super obnoxious in the way they were stating it.

Turns out they were right, but instead of losing the attitude, they doubled down on the toxicity. When I admitted they were right, they doubled down again.

So yeah, pretty obnoxious, all told.

As the saying goes: "Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'."
