educated idiot

A person who has a high degree of education, yet lacks the common sense to figure things out that most people can plainly understand. Behavior examples of educated idiots:

1. A double standard usually applies to the educated idiot. They’re above the rules frequently, or so they think.
2. Can lack a moral compass showing how to treat their fellow man like they would like to be treated, but wonders why nobody likes them.
3. They think since they have this high education it gives them superiority over those who couldn’t afford to get the education they possess. That high priced education brings about an ego trip in numerous instances with the educated idiot.

4. Brags about their higher education like everyone is supposed to be impressed. If those people aren’t impressed the educated idiot can’t figure out why we are not.

5. Doesn’t usually treat their friends, spouses, or coworkers with any respect. This results in affairs, lost friendships, etc., etc., yet the educated idiot cannot figure out why this has happened to them.

The education is merely a foot in the door for jobs and a lot of frustrating relationships
“I can’t believe they hired that educated idiot to fill that job opening as a supervisor. She couldn’t even figure out how to do an employee job performance review and had to have one of the hourly clerical people sit beside her to do one!!! Good grief what an educated idiot!!!”

“Gosh, my friend got Jennifer is bragging yet again about the fact she has a masters degree in elementary education. She says she’s going for her doctorate next. Oh, by the way she had to throw in a couple of insult jabs at me due to the fact I’m a waitress for a living. And by the way Tina, she said her husband Jeff has cheated on her again. Yet she refuses to sleep with him!!! God, what a full blown educated idiot she is!!!!”

Youtube Educated

When you believe you're educated about a certain subject by watching several Youtube videos, when in reality, you don't know shit compared to most people who do actual research, and you're just parroting what you heard on a Youtube video with no real citations or sources. Mostly popular with 9/11 conspiracists, global warming deniers, etc.
Tim: John, I'm telling you, global warming is a total hoax, I've seen several youtube videos debunking it!

John: No Tim, you're just youtube educated, and have no idea what the fuck you're talking about compared to people who actually have an education in studying the climate, and have done the research.

Educated Idiot

Someone who was smarter going into college than they were coming out. indoctrinated through liberal college/academia to only understand and except one set of ideals. Easily manipulated when such person is lack of family values or a belief system as a moral foundation. Not based on logic and reason, but emotion.
The educated idiot was crying and shouting in anger trying to prove her point in the argument, but only proved to have wasted everyone's time.
