    Least favorite type of guy: the perpetual devil’s advocate, the guy who seems to have the unstoppable urge to justify any bad thing that is criticized in his presence.

        Know a guy who proudly stated how he loves to play the devils advocate just to test my knowledge or whatever. I asked him to not do that once, because it’s just shitty and pointless.

            Yup and these guys definitely exist in the wild, proudly.

            I’ve spent 5 years studying a field, they always devils advocate me on my work if I make the mistake of talking about it. And typically tell me how my field works, which they know nothing about.

            It’s kind of amazing, the confidence I mean.
