you should maybe get a book out how the french knocked the hell out of cambodians and vietnamese, how they rose up the french backed out and america
got themselves in a war, read up man
We dont all have time to read books! And maybe I did find out AFTER you but I'm certain others knew before YOU DID!!
"you only woke up after watching a youtube vid" Not true. Did you only wake up after reading a book?
Don't worry, he's the type that gets foolish pride out of knowing stuff first. He'd be yelling "Haha I was first!" if he could, but a more subtle
approach worked equally well for him I guess.
I'm curious how many stuff OP knows that stinky over here hasn't heard of yet

Should probably be rubbing it in his face as well, you know, feeding
the ego like him. The bigger the ego, the more it needs to represent itself through, among other things, bragging (about being faster, better,
smarter,...) like is the case here

Mutually, bigger ego = lower self-esteem
The ego is like a rag paper, it needs things to happen in order to continue to exist, so it simply creates the things it needs to exist, the drama,
the feeling that one is better, smarter,..., otherwise, it simply wouldn't be there as there is no need for it to exist. Look into psychology, helps
you deal with this kind of people, and when you can, try to educate them a bit, because helping other people rid themselves of the ego should be
everyone's (who is informed) priority. It's what holds mankind back and keeps us in a primitive state where we only care about satisfying the ego
(because it wants and needs us to, in order to exist). It's nothing but a self-sustaining and self-fulfilling "illusion" inside your head, observe it,
look at what it's telling you, ask if it's true, if there is reason for it to be there, start breaking it down piece by piece, confront yourself with
the fact that you are not your ego, if you were, you wouldn't be able to distance yourself from it
