Sadly, I know the type. Elitists seem to fit into this category aswell. The thing that relates to this most in my life are guitarists who believe they can play bass since it's 2 strings under what they usually play. No one can groove like a bassist, and most guitarists can barely pluck these nice thick strings

Unfortunately there is no escape from arrogance, arrogant people are quite literally everywhere, or maybe thats just where I live, I know that at my School they were all over the place, especially the first years, who are used to being the oldest and suddenly are not anymore, it did yet better at college, I thnk that most young people grow out of it. Don't get me wrong their are lots of nice well mannered people around too, you just don't tend to remember them, I also have nothing wrong with joking about it, I myself am guilty of this, but too seriously think you are the best at anything, is just crazy (unless of course you actually are). there that might make some sense (but its probably just insane ramblings).

So since the reverse of this and thusly the solution is humility, that means we can also use this topic to talk about how to become more humble?

There are in my eyes 2 types of people that irritate me to no end. 1) Elitests = Think they are the best at whatever they choose to be the "best" at and are in no way inferior to anyone in that same category / aspect. In my opinion if that were the case you wouldn't be sitting there justifying to me you are this "best" person in this area of knowledge etc. etc. 2) Stupid = No i dont mean like ooppss i did this or that accident type stupid I mean people who are truly so stupid that they are ignorant/oblivious to the fact that they are that way in regards to anything and there are alot of those people out there trust me. The ones that you wonder how they made as far as they have in life without getting killed by someone/something or even so much as killing theirself from the stupidity eminating from them. So trust me when I say i feel your pain i know where you are coming from and can say that I know what you mean.
I agree with Trystim. There are people who are the best in one thing and there are also stupid people who thinks they are best, but actually they suck all the way.
What can you about them? Well actually I ignore them, I know this is not good, cause I don't have lot of friends, but I do know that people that are around me are true friends, cause I am very stuborn and I can't get nerved quite easly, so these people are "ghosts" for me. This is my point in this. Cya 
There's this one individual at my school that moved from another city and always disses our city and says how his/her old city/school/friends etc. Were better than us! Like he/she says it right in our faces! And also if we're having a conversation and someone expresses their opinion, he/she right away snaps back at them, trying to show that his opinion is right. He/she tells people to do things and if they don't cooperate, he/she gets mad at them! I find it ridiculous! I mean, respect other peoples' opinions!! Now it is getting even worse and he/she has stopped inviting people he always invited before to parties, etc. Someone got any suggestions?

The thing that relates to this most in my life is when I was bullied by people who thought they were better than me. I lost so much confidence at school. I was bullied all the way through. So yes it is my pet hate also.
QUOTE(OhMyBosh @ Jul 9 2005, 10:24 AM) I hate people who think they are the best and most important. They are cocky and arrogant but I don't mind when people say something cocky as a joke. "I think I'm th e most sexiest person in the world" as a joke is something funny, but when someone goes the distance and honestly thinks that they are then I have a problem. It gets even worst when they think they're better then other people because of that. I have this one kid at my school who is just like that. I won't mention his name, but he has the yellowest and crooked teeth on the face of the planet. *Sorry if I care too much about dental hygiene. Anyways, we would play basketball in gym and this kid would always hog the ball. In my gym class there is one kid who is the best Bballer in our school yet he wouldn't even get a consideration for a pass from this kid, even if he was being triple teamed. When we'd do our shooting test, he would claim how he'd get a 90% field goal average. He'd only amount to 20% and he'd complain about how he couldn't get going. Heck, even I'm better then him. I scored a 85% average on that and the best Bballer would get a 90%. Also this kid had joined the Band at our school. He thinks he can play every instrument. He basically ruined one of our concerts because he couldn't stop squeeking. Although he won't admit it and he'd keep pretending to be the best. I hate this kid's attitude and I hope I never have to deal with a guy like this ever again. I so much agree. I have met a lot of people like that over the years. Some have been so cocky about things they really knew nothing about. or how to treat the people that you work with. But I have also learned too, the old saying. what comes around goes around.
Yeah, arrogant and smug people really piss me off too, especially if they have no reason to be. And if they do have a reason to be arrogant, then I still dislike them and think less of them for how they act.
The good thing is, nobody else likes arrogant people especially other arrogant people so I guess they don't bother me as much when I realize that everyone else hates them as well.
