Elites?? Nah..

Stuck up, know it all, or arrogant. Whatever you want to call them, they are who they are. I did not know why, but arrogance is not something you purposely feel like becoming to show off. It is a natural habit that evolves over time once you become an expert, or know something so well to the point that it becomes part of you.

IMO, these are top arrogant people.

1) University Professors. University math professors get my vote for most arrogant. They treat you like a moron if you don’t understand something or ask a question. That really annoys me when it’s their job to guide you.

2) Doctors are the second most natural arrogant bastards. They give you a straight answer without thinking, and sometimes chuckle at the end of the sentence because you asked it. “How come you did not know that?” is their constant question to every question you ask them. Maybe because I am NOT a doctor is my answer. I did not spend my 20’s learning about a microscopic part of my body that can only be fixed by a 10 hour surgery. That’s not my problem. So stop being arrogant about how much you know! We know you know too much, so help us! What makes it even worse, some students who study medicine who are full of arrogance just pissed me off with their medical school jargons.. Sigh..

3) The third most arrogant bastards, the Engineers. Why are Engineers arrogant? Maybe because they spend 90% of their time designing something so great, so magnificent, and then there is that chance where it actually ends up working and being kick ass awesome! Awesome is what they describe their products. Yes, awesome! And when the final product is displayed to the world, their arrogance increases 10 folds. The more they succeed, the more arrogant they become. I don’t blame them. They do build awesome stuff that does change the world.

I finally understand why some people are full of arrogance.
