ultracrepidarian - expressing opinions on matters outside the scope of one’s knowledge or expertise

“I pledge to do better to resist the temptation to be an ultracrepidarian.”

Today is always a good time for self improvement.

Including getting better at limericks.

An ultracrepidarian
can also be contrarian.
They think they’re “the boss”
but make others cross
by acting like a barbarian.

You’re welcome.

If you don’t know, best keep your mouth shut.
If not, your head’s in your b^++
Your opinions don’t matter
When your knowledge’s not fatter
Than a lunatic X poster nut.

Con la Boca cerrada
No permite moscas entrada
Pero los ojos abierta
Los oidos descubierta
Mucho se pueda ganada

A loudmouth with theories galore,
Spewed nonsense no mind could ignore.
He tweeted all day—
(Facts got in the way)
Now he yells at a locked bathroom door.

A bad METAR thingy emerges:
Ultracrepidarian urges!
Knowledge is bliss
B.S. is remiss
and METAR seeks braggarts for purges?

There was a fool from Nottingham
He thought therefor I am
His thoughts were struck down by the fatty
The man who’s a baddy
One day fatty did one too many a sham.

There once was a man from Nantucket
Whose knowledge was all in a bucket
An ultracrepidarian fool
Who thought he was cool
When experts spoke, he’d just say “Stuff it!”
