The British or Commonwealth English counterpart of the American English "smart ass" (probably the form in which it was invented, before being borrowed back into British English).
Calling someone a smart arse is intended to pull them down a peg or two for adopting a position of superiority, especially intellectual:
(1) through sarcasm,
(2) by using obscure knowledge to score points off other people, or
(3) just being too f**king smug when they're right about something.

"Oh, Alice, you're such a smart ass."
"Actually, Bob, I would prefer to be insulted using the correct, British English pronunciation: 'smart arse'."
"But, Alice, I think you'll find 'arse' has been pronounced 'ass' since at least Shakespeare's time, and therefore far pre-dates the division of English into British and American variants."

Get the smart arse mug.A Smart-Arse-Tax is a form of punishment imposed on smart-arses by taking money/ other items of value from friends, peers etc when they demonstrate their ability to be a smart-arse.

Imposing a Smart-Arse-Tax, actually fines them for this behaviour, giving the recipient a sense of achievement and control.

Get the Smart-Arse-Tax mug.The seventh movie in this popular pornographic series. In this movie, Angel Raliegh gets a thumper of a shit on her, but it bounces off of her tit and onto her head - giving her a 'turd turban'. Max Keen holds it together and still manages to ejaculate on her face.
