There Are Too Many Know-It-Alls on the Internet

If you bring up any fucking topic anywhere on the world wide web, half a billion people will rush in and act like they know everything about it. It's truly unbelievable. A countless number of people are convinced they're experts on every damn thing imaginable. And they're eager to let you know about it. "I must share my knowledge and wisdom with the world." They can't conceive of the possibility that they might not know all there is nto know about genetics, or Jimmy Carter, or running a website, or promoting an album. In their minds, they just know. Why? Why not! "Of course I know! Of course I know! Stock prices are headed up 20% over the next year. And NBC should cancel so-and-so show and replace it with this. And all obese people can easily lose weight by doing these five things. And this governs gas prices. And..." That shit never stops! These fuckers have it all figured out. They hold that belief, and it makes them spout their ignorant bullshit nonstop.

I'm even worse. I've never come across another human being and not thought, "I know more than he does." Never!
