#geek - #have any of you gotten in trouble for trying to go deeper on a geeky topic with someone?

have any of you gotten in trouble for trying to go deeper on a geeky topic with someone?

I had the time of my life when I was in undergrad + grad school. I enjoyed going to office hours and asking questions above and beyond the course material. I'm a big fan of the scientific method and really enjoy consuming content thats uses it. However, I often find myself a bit frustrated by others who make bold claims about ideas and then invoke scientific jargon.

Some things I've heard from others:

"It's scientifically proven that unless you constantly change lanes you'll always be in the slowest lane"

"All toll lanes are terrible. I did all the research and collected all the data over the years."

"9/11 was deliberately caused by the US government. How do I know? It's backed by evidence "

​

I find myself wanting to probe deeper for more details (specific references, resources online, the name of the proof, etc.) which often leads down a path where they're defensive, mad and then the friendship becomes really strained.

​

Questions for all:

Have you ever encountered similar situations?

How did you handle it?

What do you recommend doing going forward?
