unwarranted self-importance 

A serious form of narcissism. To act as if one is an important person without actually doing anything worthwhile to prove it, thus making one look like a complete tool.

Sometimes abbreviated as USI.
Idiot: Hey guys! I just put up all these sweet pictures of myself on Facebook, and I've got this vlog that you've gotta check out. If you don't, you're clearly some kind of lesser being, 'cause everyone loves me for no reason!

Smart Person: Sounds like unwarranted self-importance to me.

Self-Important Sniff

A quick and audible nasal inhalation made after making a declarative statement about a topic that one's audience supposedly knows little and/or the sniffer considers himself/herself somewhat of an expert. The self-important sniff serves as punctuation to a statement that is typically unquestionable as the sniffer may attempt to pass opinion off as fact. It is typically used by hipsters, although it is also used mockingly, and to some comedic effect, on the Adam Carolla Podcast, as well as The Film Vault (podcast) by hosts Bald Bryan and Dick Anderson.
