Expertatitis

expertatitis is a kind of mental disease where people affected with this are very likely to spit out a bunch of useless stuff around their answer, trying to validate & applaud their own expertise! you can find people affected with this on quora all the time, where you will look for an answer, and find these people's answers, but you will need to read through a bunch of useless stuff to find what you are actually looking for. These are the people who give 1 line answer in 10 lines
bro, I hate quora sometimes, because most of the time, I see answers from people who have Expertatitis!

Half of the experts on quora are suffering from Expertatitis!

impulsive expert

A person who often decides that he or she is going to know more (about whatever you happen to be talking about) than you know.
I was talking to Anna about my boyfriend the other day, and she kept correcting me about everything I said about him. She's never even met him! Ugh, she ALWAYS does that.

I know, right? She's always such an impulsive expert!

One who has mastered the art of fine whining (to include both whining and dining and professional whine reviews). This individual can, at a moment's notice, provide deep, nuanced, and exceptionally whiny perspectives and analysis.
Bob: Not to complain, but I feel Jim complains far too often.
Steve: Of course he complains. It's his job, his duty, his sacred charge, if you will.
Bob: Why, whatever do you mean?
Steve: Well Bob, Jim is a certified whine expert, you see.
Bob: Ahh, right then; that explains it.

Subverting expectations

lame excuse for a really bad plot twist in a movie or series
- Dude, that last season of Game of Thrones was a real letdown. I expected something deeper.

Lower Your Expectations

A saying that means the more you expect out of something, the more disappointed you'll be when the outcome arrives. So always lower your expectations so you won't feel disappointed about the outcome, but never worry about it either.
If at first you don't succeed, lower your expectations.

trailing expert

- a loquacious pundit turned talking head that details how inevitable the event was after the event occurs, usually with hindsight bias.

- retroactive forecaster
The collapse of Lehman Brothers brought out the Trailing Experts and their told-you-so punditry.

Cable networks fill their voids with Trailing Experts seemingly spawned by the woodwork as after-the-fact Cassandras.
