 know-it-all

Definition: A person who thinks they know everything; someone who annoys oth
er people by always having the answer to every question.

Example: 1) Hey Chris, stop being such a know-it-all and let someone else gi
ve their opinion.

Etymology: 'Know' refers to what is in your brain, and 'all' is everything, 
so a know-it-all has everything in his brain -- or at least thinks he does.
