spectrum surfer

Someone who is highly intelligent in their own field but has the emotional intelligence and political correctness of a slug. In their own mind they are always right and have no feelings filter when dealing with others. Spectrum refers to the autism spectrum and while not medically defined as being on the spectrum is bloody close based on their mannerisms.

Did you see that email. He was right but now I'm going to have to deal with all the HR complaints. Bloody spectrum surfer.
