Replying to Avatar Sir Ryan Bemrose

When an overeducated person is losing an argument, they will often throw out the title of some obscure book, written by someone who did their thinking for them. It is implied (or even said) that if you haven't read that particular book, then you're too ignorant to have an opinion.

It's usually an effective way to shut people up in online forums (thus "winning" the argument), because there are so many books out there, the probability of an internet rando having read the one they picked is almost nil.
