I'd think he would prefer to be correct.
It would be sensible of him to be aware that he will be correct from time to time. He won't be just right. Every day millions of people are right—in periodicals, on TV, over the phone and on the internet —but people aren't as often correct ... except for Johnny Carson; because, Ed McMahon told Johnny: You are correct sir! Sometimes they are quite right, right as rain, right on target, in the right, right on the money and of course might makes right; however, the pen is mightier than the sword. Righteous! Whatever the fatuous phrase, correctness usually happens politically; or, after a few drinks. Sometimes women lose their husbands to corrections. (I hope he will be alright!) Some expressions are less common in print: Righty-O!, All euphemisms conceal how we gasp and choke-up when someone else appears to be more right than ourselves. |
