Socrates

A person who asks questions to what seeminglycan not be answered. Reasons for these can be:

A. They wish to incite questioning within their conversation partner.

B. They genuinely are curious, stupid and/or foolish.

The word is a reference to the greek philosopher Socrates, who was known to question every answer he got.
Nobody knows if he was secretly being next level or if he was just being a dumb shit.

Either way, everyone got tired of his bullcrap.
