EBAS - Expert By Association Syndrome
A person who claims to know everything about a subject just because their relative works in that field. They don’t know the difference between a job and a degree.
My mom says she knows about law because her brother’s wife’s brother is a lawyer. She thinks a contract is a napkin.
My dad tweets about cooking because his brother’s wife’s best friend is a chef. He still uses ketchup as a sauce.
My cousin says she knows about art because her friend’s uncle is a painter. She thinks a brush is for cleaning your hair.
