Someone who is oversensitive to facts, especially when it does not conform to their current beliefs. It's usually a close-minded person too proud or stubborn to admit when they are wrong or when someone they admire is wrong. In debates it's commonly accompanied by talking over the other person or as loud as possible to stop the flow of facts.

Get the Fact allergy mug.A fact buddy is an individual with whom one exchanges factual information on a frequent or infrequent basis.
There are rarely discrete terms of commitment or participation agreed upon verbally or in writing between the concerned parties. The very nature of the bond between fact buddy and fact buddy is a deep understanding and appreciation for facts. Presumably, both individuals are lifelong learners that act as sponsers to each other, offering a safe and encouraging environment where one may share knowledge without being deemed pretentious or condescending.
