pretentious wanker

Someone whose personal self esteem is so low they need to:

a) amplify their importance (or lack thereof) by quoting their education after their names when demanding things they deem to be their right.

b) surround themselves with other persons of like ilk (other pretentious wankers) such as members of the insular academia class (see also just-another wanker)

c) confirm what a cunt they are
