Someone who looks up even the most obscure facts on Wikipedia, just to prove he’s right? Yep. 

The guy who can’t stop checking up on his Clash of Clans base? Yeah, there are lots of those. 

The “friend” who stares more at their phone than the person they’re actually talking to? Spot on. 

The only thing left to wonder is where he got that awesome smartphone track jacket.
