Side note: "we were wrong" - are there any more noble and beautiful words in the English language?


“I was wrong.”

Closely followed by, “I was right.” :)


"Told you so."


That's personal pronouns.

I identify as a consipracy theorist, my pronouns are: Told/You/So.


Specifically, "told you so" as we all sink into the abyss.


It's great when people admit they were wrong but I can't help to find those headlines clickbaity.

A bit like "stop doing this..." and we think: omg, am I doing the same deadly mistake?


I love the idea that Kurt needed to better couch a post saying he was wrong about something.


I don't know.


Yep, those are better. Almost always the most honest words.


My favorite is "This too shall pass."
