Finnbellism is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority when discussing topics related to ladyboys, levels of ones gayness, causing them to mistakenly rate their ability to understand the 3rd gender or that of being gay much higher than what is actually accurate. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled individual to recognize their ineptitude regarding ladyboy, kathoey, or gay related subject matter. Actual competence may weaken self-confidence, as competent individuals may falsely assume that others have an equivalent understanding.
Example 1) I see a bit of Finnbellism has made it's was into this thread.
Example 2) Are you ok, have you got Finnbellism?
Example 3) Finnbellism is alive and well here on the forum.

Apr 27 Word of the Day
A horoscope so bad that it strikes fear into the heart of the reader, rendering them unable take action or make a decision on anything or to even leave the house. This is caused by a paralyzing fear that those actions or decisions may cause the predictions to come true.
After reading "There is a lot of uncertainty around financial transactions and investments right now, and the wrong decision could result in dire consequences" in his daily Horrorscope, Edward climbed back into bed, pulled the sheets over his head and remained there for the rest of the day.
Edward only had enough gas in his car to get to the gas station but was not sure if he had enough money in his account to pay for gas. His cell phone service had been cut off because his payments were in arrears, and since the only way he could be sure he had enough money (to pay for gas) would be to call the bank, he felt it best to hide in bed and hope his horoscope for tomorrow was more positive.
