Why is that people who "appear" to know everything really don't? The fact of the matter is that they only manage to get on people's nerves. I know many people like this and they drive me nuts. For instance.....if I was to tell a certain person that I have a degree in Criminal Justice (I do) then they might precede to tell me everything under the sun about law enforcement, criminal justice, the law, etc. We could get into a discussion where they would inevitably tell me that they know more about the said subject than I do even if they have either A. No degree or B. a degree in something else. Now I do not by any means claim to be an expert on anything, I mean anything at all, but if I'm talking to you about something or asking you about something why on earth would you even take time to open your mouth if all you are going to do is blabber on about a topic you know nothing about?
Also if someone is searching for an answer to something, and for this I'll be very vague, why is it that know it alls just automatically have to jump in with all the answers. They know the when, the where, the how and the why. I think the reality is that they don't know and just want to seem like they do. Is this a self esteem issue? Was this a problem as a child? Did no one ever let them speak and now they feel the need to speak on every issue even if the topic of which they speak sounds utterly stupid when coming out of their mouths? Just some questions to ponder from a not so know it all.......
