Randy

Entry: Randy (noun) Pronunciation: /ˈrændi/ Definition: Lacking civil discourse, Randy is a term used to describe someone who is combative and often derails conversations. They have a tendency to point out flaws and engage in illogical arguments with a condescending tone. Randy is often oblivious to their own pompous conduct and can be a source of discomfort in social situations. This behavior is not limited to online interactions and can extend to the workplace, where Randy may assert a misplaced sense of superiority, practice unethical conduct, and adopt bullying tactics. Randy’s behavior can make conversations unnecessarily combative and sour. The phrase “stop acting like a Randy” is often used to discourage such behavior.
