People who think being argumentative makes them look smart

[OldLarry]

are the same people who think people with glasses and/or English accents are smart. Go away you fucking twit.

there- that feels better.

[Name Redacted]

How about people who state opinions as fact, or speak as if they are an authority on matters that they have no clue about.

Thanks, I feel better now too!

[smartyiak]

What if they add: Just to play Devil's advocate! Does that make it OK?

[GiBo]

You bloody fucking don't know what you're talking about. My glasses actually make me smart you wanker!

[OldLarry]

you are blowing the entire premise of this forum, just to play devils advocate...

[snowmonster]

Or people who drop a foreign word or phrase to sound smarter in an argument:

"Assuming arguendo, that you are right..."

"Your point is, como se dice, incorrect..."

"This wine has a certain je ne sais quoi..."

I've had these dropped on me in the past week.

That's it- you and me, pal. Meet me at Minetta's and 5PM. I'll be outside smoking a cigarette. Punch me, so I know it's you.

You're just trying to make my fist tired. I'm onto you, guy.
