But if someone is 100% wrong, I try to gently point it out, without making them feel - dopey. No one knows everything. I learn new things all the time and hope to never, ever stop.

This just reminded me of the often thrown around statement that fat weighs more then muscle. When of course it's that one pound of muscle weighs the same as one pound of fat, but that the muscle takes up less space.
Its not that I get annoyed but they do this to me all the time..They went to college so their mother could brag..then they ALL moved back home to stay mostly because they went for a sucky major...THey gang up on me ALOT...And my husband just shuts up because he doesnt want to offend them...I may have gotten my GED and went to college but I have a higher GPA then all of them combined and I genuinely educate myself...I listen to htem if I know I dont know the answer...but If I know i do know for sure...it gets pretty pesty...I even show proof and they say " I still dont believe it".....
