historians

the new master race of the world, despite what might have been said by the most loose ho in the history of the planet.
historians are cool, nikki is just jealous because she is a loose ho who likes to take it in the ass and partake in a spit roast. A 10 pint challenge indeed.

armchair historian

Someone that clearly didn't do their research and jumps straight into historical debate. A person that parrots off "facts" they learned in their high school history class and pretends to know the thoughts, intentions and motives of historical figures. Someone who pretends to know history. These people typically think they are above everyone else intellectually just because they know a minute fact that has no application to the current conversation, as if it changes the whole picture.
Random person: "Why did Hitler lose to Stalin again?"
Armchair Historian: "Bro, like Hitler knew nothing about history. Napoleon invaded Russia and lost due to Russian winter. That means that Hitler was retarded because he invaded Russia and lost due to Russian winter."
Actual Historian: "Well that's simply not true, Germany was heavily outnumbered by the allies in WW2 and suffered constant attacks by British air on their infrastructure, making a total victory on the Eastern front nearly impossible. Not to mention Hitler didn't invade farther north than the Baltics. The Russians had even less supplies for their soldiers than the Germans did despite bombings on their infrastructure; the USSR didn't issue enough blankets or clothes for their soldiers on the front line to survive their own winter."
Armchair Historian: "B-b-but NAPOLEON! NO! NO. THAT CAN'T BE TRUE! RUSSIAN WINTER! COME ON! BELIEVE ME!!!!"

hectoring

When someone lashes and is more grouchy than happy for the smallest of things, a person who is hectoring usually shuts themselves off from the outside world after having a rant or tantrum. The Act of hectoring is also how quickly a person can get upset and how abruptly their tone of voice goes from calm to angry in a matter of seconds.
Roommate 1: Hey, I forgot to take the trash out today, sorry dude.
Roommate 2: WHAT THE HELL, YOU KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THAT IS!!!
Roommate 1: I said sorry dude, I completely forgot.
Roommate 2: I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE, LEAVE ME ALONE!!! (walks away)
Roommare 1: Geesh..that escalated quickly, I wish he would stop hectoring and just get over it.
