Question

Why do people who think that they know everything really annoy those of us that do?

Answer 1

because in truth they know absolutley nothing. just wish they were as smart as those who do know everything. so they claim to know everything yet always give the incorrect answer.

Answer 2

That is their destiny in life; to annoy us to the point of continuing the evaluations of ourselves to insure that we truly do know everything, rather than be misguided by thinking that we do, as they do.

Answer 3

Cause you can't put them right.

Answer 4

haha so u annoy urself is what ur saying

Answer 5

Hmmm...that is rather subjective don't you think?

Answer 6

Well... if you know everything, why are you asking questions in Y/A ??

Check with your potato that is mumbling to itself in the corner.

Answer 7

Da

Answer 8

HUmm maybe they think they are the best.....thanks!!

Answer 9

Because you can't convince somebody who knows everything that they know nothing.

Answer 10

Because they are people who claim to have no faults, and therefore they cannot ever be cast into a negative light, even if they don't know squat.  They have to try to prove to theirselves and everybody else that they really don't have a pea-size brain.

Answer 11

i think what annoys us is that they believe they are right and do not listen to people like us who actually know "everything". ignorance annoys me, and accepted ignorance is even worse.
