I was at work-like always-, trying to think of things that amuse me. One of my coworkers came in to check on something, I dunno, I wasn't really paying attention. Now, this kid is a big Cohen brothers fan. As you may or may not know, I am not. So, as per usual, I made some stupid remark about them. He responded in kind. And then threw a piece of wadded up paper at me.

"I find your lack of faith disturbing."

I smirked. He then started to strut, as if I didn't know what that line was from. So, he challenged me to name it.

Sigh

After rattling off some extremely WRONG answers, I finally blurted out, "Of course it's from A New Hope! How could I not know that?"

His answer was something along the lines of "Because you're an idiot."

"What are you talking about, I know everything about Star Wars."

I saw him arch an eyebrow. So, he challenged me to name the bounty hunters.

"Which ones?"

"All of them."

Please. So, with tremendous valor, I rattled off them off. Zuckuss, 4LOM, Dengar, Bossk, IG88, Bouush, Boba Fett, Jodo Kast, Jango Fett and so on.

He bowed to my majesty. Either that or left, I dunno.

This reminded me of another night where ANOTHER coworker felt that I wasn't truly a fan of James Cameron's Aliens. So, I named all twelve marines. He was impressed.

Which brings me to the real point of this entry.

WHY DOESN'T ANYBODY EVER THINK I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!?!?!??!?!?!

It's because everyone else wants to believe THEY know more than you do. Inferiority complexes, nothing more. Way to school his punk ass.

It just drives me crazy, the way people never think I know what I'm talking about.
