A Know it All that Knows Nothing
Tiffany June 17, 2020 Blogging (12) Comments

I think that we know the one person who thinks that they know everything about everything but really they are the biggest moron ever. This post is about them. As someone who is a very smart person and can hold her own in a debate, to be honest, I dislike Know it alls outside of fictional characters like Hermione Granger. Since very rarely they know anything not like in fiction books, and they just like to argue and fight for the sake of it. Personally, any self-proclaimed know it alls that I know don’t know anything.

These are the same people that you can’t argue with, or really talk to, you will just lose brain cells trying. It’s the same as talking, debating, or arguing with an idiot, you literally can’t win since the saying is that they will drag you down to their (low) level and beat you with experience.

I feel like I am always encountering these people especially in online communities, I think that there is always something about fan culture, nerd culture, or whatever that brings out a lot of narcissist people. The best thing you can do is stay away from them but that doesn’t always help. Like I make sure not to reply or interact with certain people who are like that but if they interact with me than there is not anything I can do about that but expect the worst. I’m normally right it’s just one of the know it alls asserting their so-called intelligence. The communities aren’t always the best for blocking or ignoring either, to be honest.

If you encounter these types just know that you can’t try to educate or throw facts at them because they literally don’t care. I wouldn’t bother to waste my energy or time, because all you would it would be is a waste. They will do whatever they can to prove they are right, it would be like trying to talk to my mom. They don’t care about what is right, what is a fact, they only care about looking smart themselves despite not being that at all.

These are the type of people who need to feel some sort of superiority over others to feel good about themselves. It’s sad that people need that but in today’s climate, it’s pretty obvious that there are a lot of those types of people out there. It goes to show their insecurity, to be honest.

It just seems like especially nerd culture breeds these sorts of people. It’s just a lot of pretentious and grossness in a place or places that should be positive. It sucks because a lot of us come to these online communities for fun and positive experience, so it sucks when it’s the opposite. It’s just disappointing when people do things like that because it seems like they want to ruin these online communities, to be honest.

So, how many of you all have to deal with know it alls in your life? How do you personally deal with them? Let me know in the comments below!

My path rarely intersects with such people, but if it does, I don’t see the point in arguing with them. Let them show off if it doesn’t hurt me personally

I don’t like to argue with them, I just go and leave them 🙂

I absolutely love this post! I have spent so much time trying to argue with people like this, but they never seem to understand and get the point so I end up exhausted. I’m trying to encounter less of these people in my life or just not get involved in debate, but it’s so hard when they’re so wrong but don’t listen!

I’ve come across this kind of people, mostly on YouTube (a platform that seem to attract and bring out the worst specimens of this species)….and yeah, after that experience I agree with you 1000%: trying to educate these people is an absolute, complete waste of time and “breath”; not only they don’t care for the facts, these ignoramuses will deny the facts to world’s end and – in their delusions of superiority and omniscience – more often than not go as far as saying that you are the ignorant know-it-all.
They’re like online trolls: they should never get any interaction or feedback of any kind, they should just be ignored and avoided.

I totally agree with you. One of the worst things about these people is that you can’t teach them anything because they’re not open to a counter argument about anything. I don’t bother engaging because it’s infuriating x

it’s a shame you have come across so many of those people! I’m lucky I haven’t met many and the ones I have met I’ve been able to avoid most of the time, haha! 🙂

Hope that you are having a nice weekend 🙂

I agree with you not to waste time or energy trying to argue with them.

I had to do a project in a class with a teenager last semester. She thought she had life all figured out and knew everything.
I did not bother my energy nor time trying to argue with her. She will figure out when she is older that she does not know everything and she has a lot to learn about life.

I tend to run across these types a lot, especially on social media. I use to spend time debating, but now I find myself reaching points of literally not caring enough to because it would be pointless. I’d much rather have healthy debates with people who actually know what they’re talking about. I find that a lot of these types of know-it-alls tend to get their misinformation from things they read on the internet that they clearly have no business reading. It seems like people would much rather pull things out of their asses than to actually share anything factual.

I get you, I understand how you feel. When I was a student, I actually studied a lot, had a good general knowledge of the things I loved like history, foreign languages, books, literature, biology but I was very shy, insecure and unskilled in human relationships. There were other collegues of mine that had no knowledge, didn’t study but were great with people and knew how to convince them. It was hard to discuss wuth them especially when they were arrogant and bullied me or my friends. I used to let it go but it wasn’t always in my interest. When I went to university and studied psychology, some professors and colleagues explained to me how to counteract these people with confidence. You should never allow them to change the subject and divert the discussion on the things that put them in good light, if they make acid comments or if they insult you, it is best to ask questions like “how does this make you feel?” or “does this thing (insult) make you feel better?” I had developed the 2 in 1 technique, that is, I hit both with a single phrase like “now that we have managed to calm your ego and have worked on your self-esteem, can we go back to the real core of the matter?” In the end we have to defend our opions from the so-called know-it-all or bullies because otherwise we will suffer further from insecurities and low self-esteem.
Stay well my dear and stay safe!

Such a great post! I used to argue a lot in the past, but learned now that soem people just argue for the joy of it and not because they really believe in what they say. So better use your time wisely on something (or someone 😉 else 🙂

have a great day,

OohhhHHH I HATE THOSE PEOPLE!! When we try to correct them, they act smart ass about it too. “I know”. Ok if you know, then why are you doing it wrong?? I just stop dealing with these people now. If these people are at work, I just take it up to management for them to deal with these people. Not worth my time but worth my escalation.
