I really hate NTs who put on a big act of being cooler than cool, and the way they look down on you if you say/do anything they think is uncool. Does anyone have a good way of putting such people in their place?

just by outsmarting them, but not in a way that make s you look like a nerd take something they like and then show how much more about it then they do.

I have dealt with this my entire life. It used to intimidate me, but I developed THE STARE and it doesn't affect me anymore. I simply focus all my attention on them, stare intently, then tilt my head slightly. I stare as if I am looking at some extreme oddity I found on the sidewalk.

It really seems to freak them out of their "cool" attitudes.

Yes, the stare works wonders. Makes them feel insecure. I just used the ultra-cool pose myself and never said much. I looked bored, and at other times, just raise my eyebrows and smile just a little as if I had a secret they couldn't possibly understand.

Other times...frankly I would let them think what they wanted, shrug my shoulders and walk away...as if I was doing it just to get a rise out of them. Anything that they couldn't quite pin down.
