I'm not gonna lie, I love being right. Nothing feels as good as proving someone else wrong, especially if they were smug about their opinion. In fact, the more obnoxious the person is while they still think they're right, the sweeter it is when I prove them wrong. However, I also enjoy being right when it's totally uncalled for. Someone posts an innocent question or statement that everyone understands the meaning behind, and I somehow find a way to flip the entire meaning on its head and supply a correct answer—just not an answer to the question asked.
I'm the kind of person who just can't resist a clever twist, especially if it's one that leaves everyone scratching their heads and realizing, "Oh, I didn't think of it like that!" It's almost like a game for me—a fun challenge to see how far I can stretch the interpretation of someone's words, without technically being wrong.
