Dropping Knowledge 

The act of supplying another individual with important information at a crucial time. The information supplied must be of some significance within the context with which it was dropped.
Mark: "I am going to Boston, but I am not sure what I am doing"

John: "Hmm, please allow me, I love "dropping knowledge" on the likes of you. There is a Red Sox game at 7:05 pm, they're playing the Rangers, you can find tickets at stubhub.com, there is a great restaurant around the corner, here is the number to make a reservation. You should avoid taking 93 during rush hour."

Mark: "Wow, you just dropped some serious knowledge on me!"

Knowledge Dropping 

Like name dropping, except with knowledge. Sprinkling your conversation with tidbits of trivia in a pathetic attempt to impress your friends.
Sandy: Is everything OK?
John: Yes, and interesting use of that word. Did you know "OK" has its origins in the Choctaw Indian language?
Sandy: Knowledge dropping. You're such an ass.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
