People who hijack the occasion of another person’s death to offer up long-winded tributes – to themselves:
“My fondest memory of the deceased is the time many years ago when he fixed me with his penetrating gaze and, in that intense manner of speaking he had that brooked no dissension, he told me how great I am. What an inspiring moment! Blah blah blah . . . me me me . . .”
Thank you, Professor Pompous.
