Windozer
A user (A) who will actively volunteer to help another user (B), just so that they can make a big show of how they don't know how to use B's machine, based solely upon deliberate ignorance of the operating system. They will thus insist that they don't know how to perform simple functions on an OSX or Unix machine, even though many such functions are handled exactly the same way as windows. Essentially the opposite of a unix or osx fanboy.
"OK so I'll just plug in this projector and we'll get started. - Oh, it's set to mirror. I was planning on doing this in Presenter Mode..."
"Oh, I can fix that, here let me... OH SHHHIIII- I didn't realise you were using one of...THESE things. I have no idea how to fix this on OSX."
"Christ, Bill. You're such a Windozer. Look - Apple menu> System Settings...>Displays. This is really the same as control panel. You're just making a big deal over nothing. Make an effort will ya??"
