Factoid

(noun)

A person who responds to every statement, joke, or piece of sarcasm with a factual correction or random piece of information, often derailing the conversation into a mini lesson.

Alternate definition:
Someone whose superpower is turning every debate into a TED Talk.

Example:
Me: “Water isn’t even wet.”
Jacob: “Actually, water is wet because the molecules adhere to each other—”
Me: “Okay, factoid, relax.”
