I hate people who think they know everything in the world and talk down to you at every opportunity when in all actuallity, they are completely WRONG and full of **** about 90% of the time. Have you ever argued with one of these jackasses? Isn't it just infuriating?!?!? My brother is one of these people who just knows more than you, is smarter than you, more enlightened than you, more important than you, etc in every way, shape and form. And if you disagree with his divinely blessed opinion, you are just ignorant, got it?? I mean, this is really how his mind works. The sad thing is, he is smart in many ways, and so many people are fooled by his BS.
Example: I drink wine WAY TOO MUCH. Like, I've been going through about two bottles of Merlot, all different brands, a week! I know what Merlot tastes like, right? When you drink one type of alcohol, you pretty much know what it's supposed to taste like. I get a bottle of Merlot, and it has that awful vinegary, sour taste and smell which immediately lets you know it's oxidized and BAD because of the way it's stored. I mean, there's no debate, if you know what merlot tastes like and drink it with any kind of frequency, you know this ain't right!! My brother, who maybe drinks a glass of wine casually 3 times a year starts railing on me, "You don't know what you're talking about!!....This is a good wine, you just need to let it set out a while, blah, blah, blah...You just think because you drink cheap Merlot you know when merlot is bad. You don't know what the **** you're talking about. blah blah". he gets all indignant and belligerant about how stupid and "uninformed" I am about this type of wine I drink every week and that he NEVER drinks.
What do you say during such a ridiculous argument like this? When you know you're right and the other Know-it-all is full of complete BS??? I know I should be the bigger person and let it go, but how can you not open your mouth against such a stupid person?
In the same day, he also pissed me off when we were watching a band on TV. My brother's a guitarist and a music fanatic. I said how much I like them and he's like, "I just don't like them. They're boring. I think most people who like them are just ignorant of music and don't listen to a lot of music". Hmmm, I listen to tons of music, was raised in the same musical family as you, so it's like, thanks douche. And when I tell him that millions of people like them and just because he doesn't appreciate them doesn't mean that everyone who does is stupid he's like "Sorry, it's just a fact, most people who listen to this don't have a great taste in music and don't know a lot about different music" And i'm like WOWWWWWW....how can you seriously be so pretentious?
People like this cause me great anxiety. I can't take it!!!
