I liked NDT when I was younger, but he's really made being the smug "Um, actually" science guy his whole personality. Plus he sorta crowned himself Sagan's successor.

Back in college a couple of my friends in the physics club got to have dinner with him after he gave a talk, and they confirmed that he really is that pretentious and self-centered.
