@AnjneyMidha Interesting

Anjney Midha@AnjneyMidha

in frontier research, after a debate:

if someone calls you annoying, it means you’re right and they’re wrong

if someone calls you aligned it means you were wrong, they were right, and you conceded gracefully

if they call you interesting, they mean you’re wrong and an idiot
