Well, Actually

[firecat]

I've participated in discussions about how, in some social circles (e.g., SF fandom), correcting someone is considered polite and a sign of engagement and interest. Personally I don't react to it that way naturally, but I've learned to apply a filter to the point where I usually have an affectionate reaction to it rather than an annoyed/offended one.
