Your Definition
This is the University of Chicago definition. Also known as That Guy. The "That Kid" is, in short, the kid in your class who everybody hates. He consistently attempts to impress the professor with references to books and topics that ultimately irrelevant to the topic and class at hand. He uses big words which he has little grasp of, and quotes authors and thinkers in a nonchalant and usually incorrect manner. He will argue with the professor over anything in a desperate attempt to appear smart. Sometimes, he will go so far as to try and correct the professor--this always fails, because he is an idiot. It is unknown whether "That Kid" really believes in himself, though it is clear that even if he does not, he is still a raging douchebag. Possibly and probably related to the hipster.
