Erratomania from Erratomania by Bardic Mechanism
Most of us have met people who can't control themselves when faced with an incorrect statement. Making a judicious correction with a brief note to its relevance, then taking a step back is never quite enough. Interrupting the conversation with a loud, spitting "ACTUALLY," they drag everyone head first into minutia that nobody cares about except for them.
This behavior is occasionally tolerable as a mere byproduct of poor social skills and good intentions. It gets obnoxious when performed as a courtship ritual or ill-conceived attempt to impress. It becomes terrible when the person conducting themselves in this way has power over you, using the practice as a display of dominance intended to belittle and self-aggrandize.
Think before you speak. This is what it feels like to be on the receiving end.

Lyrics
I know you think you know a lot
You want to show me what you've got
That pressure building up inside
You wanna blow my fucking mind
You talk and talk and never stop
Decided you're my savior
That I should lap up every drop
Of your erratomania
Is this some kind of social dance
Where you assert your dominance?
Or is it just that you know facts
And you can't keep them in your pants?
You think you're clever and you're wise
I think it's bad behavior
You want me worshipping the size
Of your erratomania
Furious self-ingratiation
Won't beget appreciation
You think your going on and on
Is us having a conversation?
I do not know
I do not care
Keep talking at my mortal flesh
My soul's just over there
At least I can check out my mind
Since it's all just the same to you
My spirit will not be a slave
To your erratomania
