knownothing

a knownothing is the complete and total opposite of a know-it-all. the knownothing sustains itself in social circles by pretending to know what they are talking about and backing up their arguments with nonexistent facts, in the hopes that the individual they are dialoging with are less educated than themselves.

when confronted by a know-it-all, there natural enemy, they become belligerent and any air of wise sophistication is abandoned in favor of insults and off-subject commentary.
Cliff Claven, the most popular and relevant knownothing of his time has been quoted saying things like:

"a pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes"

"White Out was invented by the mother of Mike Nesmith of the Monkees"

"The word samba means to rub navels together"

know nothing know it all

A person who knows nothing about most topics they chime in on in conversation. This person will be 16 years old with zero experience about farming and tell a farmer about crop rotation. This person will tell a European car technician what's wrong with their car, refuse to pay diagnosis, because they used to work at Chevy in the 80s, and then bitches when the car isn't fixed.

Rather than listening and increasing their knowledge they insist to run their mouth to the point where everybody is annoyed.
