ignominiac 

A term based on ignominy and maniac.
This is a person who is intent on being a noted authority or discoverer by the use of such things as selective plagiarism, rampant falsification or just plain ignorance. When this results in public shame and disgrace, an ignominiac will persist nonetheless and may ultimately become a glorious antihero to some.
The term could also be used for a rumor monger - well-known or otherwise.
An historical example of an ignominiac is Willard Glazier who (in the 1880s) visited the area of the upper Mississippi River in Minnesota and came up with his falsified proof of the actual ultimate source of the river which he named after himself. Eventually the Minnesota legislature ordered schools to not teach his findings as fact.

Ignominite 

A person who pushes a door instead of pulling it (and vice versa).

(Note, the word can be changed to "ignominiting" to describe the action)

a semantic widening, almost, of the word ignominious in the fact that it means something embarrassing, and the action is embarrassing for most people.
"You ignominite!", "You total ignominite!", "Oh, look, he/she's ignominiting!" etc.

ignominious 

A person so incompetent and excessivley stupid, that they are unworthy to be a part of society and should be cast out of the sight (and more importantly hearing range) of all other human beings. They are more commonly known as cretins, who excel at using thousands upon thousands of words to say nothing at all.
Since the Michael Moore tribe has officially become Stalinist and banned any more speech critical of Moore by their new Mooron administrator, Moore's America hating idiotic lies and propaganda clearly show that he and all who listen to him are ignominious and should be forever banished from society.

potus ignominius 

Satirical name for an American president of ignominious nature in the form of that of a dubious Roman emperor. Example: Claudus Licentius, Profanius Maximus, etc.
The president's pompous and embarrassing behavior earned him the nickname of Emperor Potus Ignominius.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
