+532 When you give someone an intelligent insult and they dont get it, the moment is bittersweet. You feel the success of being right about their stupidity, but also the frustration of knowing they think they've won, amirite?

Much like a pyrrhic victory.

I feel like you just learned what this meant recently and wanted to use it in casual conversation. :) Thanks for mentioning it, though, I like learning new terms like this. :D

No, I actually learned it 2 years ago and was trying to remember what it was called. During the Peloponnesian War. I was trying to come up with some analogy to history that was bittersweet but this was the best I could do.

Haha, it's just the way that you kind of casually dropped it in that made me think of it. I see that you're a history person. :)
