87. People who parade their "expertise" in order to shut everyone else up.
Like this:

Rocket Scientist here. I am right and you are wrong. You all hate rocket scientists. If you're not a scientist, go back to the Lounge! If you are a scientist and disagree with me, you're not the right kind of scientist. Your observations are inconsequential.* My peer-reviewed shit is better than your peer-reviewed shit. Etc ...


*This means that it's not raining just because you might observe that it's raining.
