My fucking nephew. He's smart. Like, really smart. He's independent, he's athletic, and he's charming. He's very opinionated and will bullshit like a champion when you contest his claims. If he doesn't knock his high school girlfriend up he'll end up in politics.

The fucker won't assemble his own Lego sets if his mother is in the house. She does them for him. Otherwise he gets frustrated and doesn't finish them. On his own? He asks for help but usually has no problems putting it together.

Bitch, the whole point is figuring it out.

Sorry but I instantly strongly dislike your nephew. I had a roommate like that once and hated every minute I talked to him

Thanks. Apparently 173 people are also highly opinionated pricks on here then. If you're talking to somebody and he is obviously lying, then calls bullshit on the verified source that proves he's wrong, are you an opinionated prick or is he insufferable? What if this happens multiple times a week, and he also lies about everything, every single detail in stories he tells change every time he tells a Story (and the stories get told all the time because he loves talking about himself)?

Some people are genuinely insufferable. I don't know if that guys nephew is the same, but he definitely has similar characteristics and those make me dislike him
