This one requires math. I didn’t know that there would be math. Hope I’m not off by more than 1/8”.

It used to be in his avatar years ago. I always thought it was a pretty good description for certain people. I figured some here may remember it from there

I think it's still there as Grumpy's location. My post was actually my guess though.

I always thought it was clever. I assume grumpy learned it from somewhere. Maybe he coined it himself?

I don’t really care what people think of Grumpy. I only referenced him so someone didn’t come back saying I stole that line from him. More interested in which VBOT azz hats it applies to

Its an actual affliction, usually most prevalent among egotistical @holes and called the Dunning-Kruger effect.

No known cure.
