You are the worst kind of pedant. You make grand pronouncements as if you are Archimedes leaping from his bathtub. At least he had formulated something important to merit his rash actions. You, on the other hand, are intellectually naked, and, let me tell you, I'm laughing hysterically at the meanness of your cerebral member.

I hereby dub thee the Cliff Clavin of I-Mockery.
