Da "top people" whom folks consult for advice/assistance on a variety of ordinary topics dat are randomly scattered about over da "ol' 26" in da English language.
Da seven most common types of alphabetical authorities are:
(1) hexpert --- someone who is super-familiar with voodoo and curses; hopefully he uses said vast witchcraft-knowledge to remove or alleviate said evil spells, not to put them on in da first place!
(2) mexpert --- an individual well-versed in all matters "south of da border".
(3) pexpert --- a plumber who is well-versed in da use of freeze-resistant plastic piping
(4) rexpert --- a learned bookworm on da subject of certain animals, either man's best friend or da huge hunched-over carnivores back in da Jurassic period.
(5) sexpert --- someone who can advise couples on achieving more satisfying intimacy.
(6) texpert --- a dude who knows all about da "black-tea"-rich southern-USA area dat is Ranger Walker's usual stompin' grounds.
(7) vexpert --- a human-nature guru with extensive experience on what pushes people's buttons; again --- as in da first example above --- presumably he uses said know-how to help **reduce** already-existing frustration/distress in others, not to purposely exhibit destructive behavior dat would cause people to **become** wound up when they had felt reasonably calm before! (Da infamous "gettin', getters, got"exchange between Madea and Dr. Phil comes to mind.)

Jackie Weaver – if you recall the dialogue from the jaw-droppingly chaotic parish council meeting – had “no authority” to remove councillors from the meeting. “No authority at all.”

Adj: A word describing how someone is the best writer you have ever seen, even better than a famous one. They can write about anything, even thigns they don't like to write about, and make it sound like the bet thing since white bread.

Authority figures, with veneer of legitimacy so thin, that it can be readily removed, to reveal the criminal constitution that is beneath.
The mother was a hypocrit, and a scratch-off authority, with a history of criminal faults, that she hid behind the facade of respectable, government, employee.

The idea that the Bible has multiple authors is not something I learned from Jordan Peterson but, rather, Morgue.
Hym “The funniest part about this is watching you turn into a self-serving, self-important narcissist. It’s hilarious. You’ll take the undue credit and claim to be what this is based on but it is based everything I have ever encountered. You are one of many and (In my opinion) the most arrogant and contemptible. You are you and I am Hym. You couldn’t do what I did if you tried and the funniest part is that I was just winging it. So, there are no ‘authors’. I wrote down ideas that I had internalized in addition to ideas of my own. You’re conflating the two. In every instance where the ideas of others are replaced with mine, mine come out on top. By every metric. Whether it’s ratings, revenue, or the standard for creative achievement (subsequent texts being based on the source). This is what competence looks like. Behold. Is I blinding? Can you see? Or must you shield your eye from the radiant light that is the very essence of my being?.”
