know it all


Definition
A person who thinks they know everything; someone who annoys other people by always having the answer to every question.

Example
1) Hey Chris, stop being such a know-it-all and let someone else give their opinion.

Etymology
'Know' refers to what is in your brain, and 'all' is everything, so a know-it-all has everything in his brain -- or at least thinks he does.

A punch in the face.

A 'sandwich' is an assortment of food between two pieces of bread, and 'knuckles' are the bones in your hand. So a 'knuckle sandwich' is a fist that goes straight toward your mouth
