EBAS - Expert By Association Syndrome
They act like they know everything about a subject just because they know someone in that field. They don’t know the difference between a job and a life.
My mom says she knows about science because her brother’s wife is a scientist. She thinks a theory is a guess.
My dad posts about math because his cousin’s son is a mathematician. He still uses a calculator as a phone.
My sister tweets about history because her friend’s uncle is a historian. She thinks a timeline is a calendar.
