No, it’s not the “best kind of correct”, it’s being an asshole.

That's the joke, though.

The character being quoted, from Futurama, is usually insufferable and often miserable.

Edit: Interestingly, the character is also relatively well liked and generally appreciated by the rest of the Planet Express crew. It's a pretty nuanced quote, in context. It kind of says "You're not wrong, and your correction is arguably unnecessary and objectively objectionable, but we love you, anyway."
