Reply to comment by ghostphantom27 in LPT: It is valuable to know when to stop arguing with other people and simply let them be wrong by Dismal_Body_2731
I agree that arguing with some people is a waste of your time.
But simply saying "OK" and go on your merry ways will validate them in their wrongness and gradually make them more pigheaded and stubborn.
I believe the right way to handle such people is telling them they are wrong without letting yourself get drawn into a spun out argument. Just let them know that they are wrong, perhaps with a smattering of arguments, and then go on your merry ways.
Like this:
Moron: "Guh buh luh".
You: "You're wrong. Guh doesn't buh luh"
Moron: "Yes, but guh buh luh".
You: "No, you're wrong like I already pointed out. Goodbye!"
