Funny that you happen to get "tired" of it just at the moment when you
realize you made a mistake.

Yes, I was right. Yes, you were wrong. But it's not such a
huge deal. We all make mistakes. I make mistakes all the time,
and I'm grateful when people point them out. And I usually accept
corrections without sarcasm.

And now you're being ridiculous. This:
char c = 'x';
printf("%c", c);
is perfectly valid, because the char value is promoted to int,
which is what printf expects for "%c". (Except in the obscure
case that plain char is unsigned and sizeof(int) == 1, but I'm
willing to ignore that (other than this brief mention for the sake
of completeness).) But of course you know that.
Pointing out an error is not a personal attack. Learn that and
you might be taken a lot more seriously around here.
