    Bow out gracefully and preserve my pride enough to argue another day.

    I like to think I would, anyway. It's hard to say when you're never wrong. >.>

    Admit fault, then amuse myself with their bewildered response.

    If I realise the point I was making was wrong I admit it and take my lumps. I do this because nobody on the internet ever admits it when they make a mistake, so I feel immensely superior to everyone. It's like a whole new level of arrogance.

    If I'm materially, factually wrong? Own up to it like an adult and go on with my life.

    I don't often engage in debate/discussion threads, but if I do and I have my facts wrong, then I apologise and move on.
    If it's just opinions being tossed around though... Them waters, they be murky.

    I'm rarely wrong, as I usually only speak about topics that I'm extremely familiar with. If I'm talking about a topic that I'm not extremely familiar with, I usually note that in my first post on the subject. In which case, if I am wrong later in the thread, I simply say okay, cool, and refer to my previous post where I said I may be wrong.

    And yes, that kind of makes me a jerk for leaving myself an out in any argument where I'm not 100% sure of myself. I'm sure it's infuriating beyond belief to argue against me.

    Depends on the attitude of the person proving me wrong. If some one does it in a polite or even just casual manner then I'll admit I am wrong and apologize. If some one has a high and mighty attitude about it, I'll either get snippish or just ignore it. Though sometimes I'll feel guilty because of manner in which I said something and just not post anymore...

    Pretend I didn't see anyone prove me wrong.

    You're actually all wrong because you can't "prove" anything.

    The only thing you know for certain exists, is your own mind. Simple epistemology ladies.

    Well depends on the thread. If it's something important, I usually make sure that I'm right before posting.
