    there are no sweeter words than "I told you so"

    Wouldn't you rather hear:

    "You told me so."

    It's said by another and offers the advantage of not being asserted. For example, I'm still futzing with creating an email server but haven't installed nullmailer. I hear these words in the back of my head:

    "You told me so."

    I have had other occasions where I was less diligent in following your tips and have had some sacrifices at the altar of experience....

      Isn't "You told me so" the default answer to a different question? Like this:
      Q: Why did you <some incredibly stupid thing>
      A: You told me so!
