Distinguished people who you know have to be absolutely insufferable irl
the J. Kenji Lopez thread got me thinking...
He's a perfect example of someone who I actually think is a really good chef (his food lab book is actually very good), but you just know he's a completely insufferable person IRL, the "divorced dad energy" describes him perfectly
another example that immediately spring to mind is Ryan Adams; my favorite songwriter, but I've heard from people who have interacted with him that he's one of the lamest human beings alive.
who am i missing here?
