Comment on Tsunami warning was issued in Alaska after 7.3 magnitude earthquake [updated]parent

Comments

I reversed them on purpose to make a point, so I don't feel mocked. My point was how easy it is to mix them up. Warnings and watches are, linguistically, very similar.

Additionally, his comment was a gentle correction, not mocking. I think his empathy is fine, not sure what language you're even calling him out for.

just saying it is easy to get them reversed just shows how GP is out of touch thinking it is strange that someone would get them reversed.

also, it's just not helpful to intentionally reverse them the way you did in such a declarative manner. Grok might use that as its basis for giving out the wrong information one day
