A person who, in an attempt to be
righteous, cannot hold a regular
conversation due to his or her undying need to argue the
semantics of the second person's speech
(Victoria is the semantophile in the following

Elie: I can't stand when people argue semantics.
Victoria: But if by "argue" you mean they take a stand against what might be a culturally accepted term for you, then technically you're not looking at their point of view.
Elie: But you're
missing the point...
Victoria: If "the point" is open to
interpretation then one can never so-called "miss" it.
Elie: Oh god...
