We all know at least one...
A know-it-all.
Seldom knows anything, but act likes they know everything.
You cannot hide from them. They lurk around offices, classrooms, elevators and water coolers. They stalk their prey waiting for the perfect time to pounce. And when you least expect it they open their toxic mouths ...
It was recently brought to my attention that the first sentence of my first blog entry (if you haven't read it you should) of my first blog contains a grammatical error. Hmm… strange, since I had it proofed by a few people. How could this be? It’s because it is probably one of the more common errors. I bet you that you couldn’t even pick it up if you went back and read it right now.
Than, instead of Then.
Really!? Really? Does anyone actually know why there is a discrepancy in those two words? Also, I guess you missed the actual title: “Cause there’s no worse way to fly.” Also grammatically incorrect.
Nothing peeves me more than a know-it-all. The thing about know-it-all's is that there is a disconnect between the actual amount of information they have stored in their tiny brains and the awareness that they really know very little. Kind of like a small child or anyone on Fox News (except for Megyn Kelly… wowza.).
Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly while posing for Maxim:
So unless you look like Megyn Kelly, please stop trying to fix everything and everybody. Maybe worry about yourself for a change? We are all human and therefore imperfect (hard to believe with Mrs. Kelly staring at you like that). It's ok if you're really an idiot. No need to hide it by acting like a know-it-all...
...like Mr. Bill O'Reilly. WE'LL DO IT LIVE!
Know someone like this? Rant about it! (you could be MVP)
Jabronie of the Week: The Gaddaffi's: Muammar and his son Saif. Get the F out. The west hates you (see U.N. sanctions), the Middle East hates you and your own people hate you. Seriously. Get the F out.
MVP!!!!: Hassan for trying to enjoy his delicious cheese steak at Geno's, but being exposed to the ethnocentrism:
(For the record Hassan speaks excellent English.)
MVP Honorable Mention: Iloveprime for having to endure, ordering multiple burritos (as an intern) for an office full of lazies, that refused to use the online order sheet.
Thanks to everyone who shared last week. Tune in next week.
....That Megyn Kelly photo is actually from a GQ issue.
ReplyDeleteAnd it looks like she is about to unload a HUGE amount of flatus.
Therefore, I couldn't take her interview seriously at all.
I hate Megan Kelly even if she is hot. Such a vapid right wing flack. Same goes for Elizabeth Hasslebeck.
ReplyDeleteTrue wisdom comes with the realization that truth lies in perspective and that we are all ignorant of most things.
I enjoy your blog man. Grammar doesn't matter so much here anyway. It is a blog not a Pulitzer Prize contender. No offense meant by that in any way.
Working in OB/GYN for the past week now... enough said, I know little to none about obstetrics compared to my 40-60yo, mothers of multiple children, female bosses.
ReplyDeleteThe look on their faces when I mispronounced "lochia" (post-partum bleeding) would've made you think I messed up the teleprompter (see wild Bill above). Ugh.
