This was, after all, Duckworth-Lewis: know-alls of the rain break, the eminent mathematicians who have been granted the last word in cricketing what-might-have-been since the institution of their system for deciding incomplete matches by the International Cricket Council in 1996. ❋ Unknown (2011)
But then again, I'm a paid-up member of the awkward squad, and I don't let know-alls get to me. ❋ Unknown (2011)
I've heard it asked since (at a safe distance) by the usual valiant know-alls, and the answer is because my old chief Robert Lee knew his business, that's why, and wasn't about to waste lives, and risk the hostages, by brawling in the dark when he could wait until daylight - and until the spirits of those in the engine-house were that much lower, and possibly open to reason. ❋ Unknown (2010)
You may wonder that I got in such a taking over one pompous windbag spouting claptrap; usually I just sit and sneer when the know-alls start prating on behalf of the poor oppressed heathen, sticking a barb in 'em as opportunity serves-why, I've absolutely heard 'em lauding the sepoy mutineers as honest patriots, and I haven't even bothered to break wind by way of dissent. ❋ Estelle Bruno (2010)
Much derided by the know-alls and almost completely ignored by the media clever-dicks and the political wannabes, who would much rather expend their energies on scoring the weekly jousts which go under the name of Prime Minister's Questions PMQs, these represent an important safety valve in the system and a very direct mechanism for flagging up neglected issues. ❋ Richard (2007)
Certain doctors do not suffer gladly middle-class know-alls. ❋ Susan Johnson (1999)
Mr. CONQUEST: Well, they wanted -- I think -- depending on -- they weren't know-alls, if you know what I mean. ❋ Unknown (1999)
And in 1959 one of those numerous know-alls who write to the Times said that John Peckham, a thirteenth century Archbishop of Canterbury, tells the same story in a letter written in Latin. ❋ Unknown (1989)
Because we were Christians, and supposed to know better? — and because England contains this great crowd of noisy know-alls that are forever defending our enemies 'behaviour and crying out in pious horror against our own. ❋ Fraser, George MacDonald, 1925- (1975)
In doing this, I must take up the defensive as well as offensive alike against a large per cent of people, outside of the Negro race, who set themselves up as an authority on all questions affecting the Negro, and, mark you, from their decision there is no appeal; as also against the _know-alls_ within the ranks of the race. ❋ Daniel Wallace [Editor] Culp (N/A)
The know-alls are quick to point to contraceptives, nutritional errors, infertility, selfishness, economic insecurity, etc., as basic causes of decline. ❋ Unknown (1944)
More than a little for you young know-alls to learn, ❋ Wilfrid Wilson Gibson (1920)
There are always old bush lawyers and city know-alls beside whom ❋ Miles Franklin (1916)
[luqman knows all]
when an intelligent, advanced boy says that he knows all
ME: whats 9+10
[luqman]: to the power of the [equidistant] vector and the algebraic impression on an x and y graph, we can simplify it to 19.
ME: [LUQMAN KNOWS ALL]!!! ❋ Vimtolover99 (2020)
"Bob, I looked up on the Internet when Groundhog Day is like you told me to. It didn't say anything."
"Are you sure you are using Google and not Bing? You know what they say, [the Google knows all]."
"Actually, according to Bing, [nobody says that]."
"Just Google it! [The Google knows all]." ❋ Qwertyuiop[]fghjjm (2014)

"Ann: "I think Jerry needs some tylenol and-"
Pat: "No, No, Ann! When someone feels that way, you need to get them some chicken noodle soup."
Elaine: "Well, I'm going to [feed the bird] so-"
Pat: "NO, NO, ELAINE! For a bird like this, you only feed it three to four times a day and you want to give it honey."
Ray : "I'm going to run out and get some tools to-"
Pat : "Ray, that's rubbish. To fix a bicycle, you have to use old dirty tools. New tools don't get the job done these day. It's the old fashioned kind that will get the job done."
Janice : "Pat, [quit it]. You're being an motherfucking know it all. [Quit it]. [QUIT IT]!" ❋ Leo Bos (2008)
[I know] what a [know-it-all] is because [I am one]. ❋ Meen5 (2011)
(Note: there are countless ways to seem knowledgeable on a subject as by behaving correctively and correcting people all the time, giving unwanted advice, expressing opinions as fact, not accepting advice or information from others, etc., but when there are also indicators that one doesn't know what they're talking about, they're considered [a know it all] or engaging in know it all behavior)
"Even though I'm only fifteen and I've never held a job before I want you to listen to me carefully; on your interview, if you're not sitting cross [legged], they won't hire you. If you don't nod, they won't hire you. Employers hate when you don't wear [a tie]. Companies these days aren't into what's on your application. Employers these days are real into the whole look aspect of it all. [Take it from me]," said my know it all son before I handed him his schoolbag and replied, "Shut up and go to school, dear!"
I found it shocking that some know it all [bum out] on the street was telling me how to handle my taxes the right way.
I try very hard not to seem like a know it all when discussing scientific matters; I provide evidence and back up what I'm saying and explain to others of my [college experience] in the field. That way, people regard me as knowledgeable and not a know it all. ❋ Rick Warwick (2008)
"Hahahahaha! Trigonometry. That old stuff. You're having a tough time with that," laughed my know-it-all sister, Megan.
"Well students. You actually have to discern the entomological aspects of it." "Well, DUH! [No shit, Sherlock]. If you can't, that's pretty sad," said [a know-it-all] in the class.
"I don't get how to fix the TV," said my father. "Omg! You don't know how to fix a [TV set]. Lmao! Who doesnt know how to fix a TV set, take it apart and put it back together again. That's so obvious."
Abby said "no duh" to nearly everything she heard during the study on insects. She is such a know-it-all.
"All you do to fix it, is turn it off and then tighten some of the wiring. Duh," said Kya. Kyra had never tried fixing a computer in her life. She was just acting like a know-it-all. ❋ MikeZatin (2008)

Mother , father, and daughter are in the room.
"What is wrong." Father asked.
"[I'm sick]. [I don't feel so good]." mother answered.
"It' s not ,'I don't feel good', it's I don't feel well "daughter said.
