LOL, my inner dialogue nearly every time some netizen who likely didn’t even exist when I began my advocacy career in the early 1990s just MUST ‘splain my own areas of expertise to me on social media:
“Hi, I’m what is called a ‘subject matter expert’ which means I’ve devoted a good deal of time, expense and personal resources toward learning in depth about a particular issue. Some of that was learned from firsthand experience, some from others. Sometimes, when I feel comfortable, I let people pay me to talk about it. Can we fast-forward now to the part where you are not fucking ‘teaching’ me about my own area of expertise? Thanks for being a buddy!”
