There must be a precise word that describes those people who think they are very smart and clever, but are actually dumb as rocks - and don’t know it.

There must be a precise word that describes those people who think they are very smart and clever, but are actually dumb as rocks - and don’t know it. There is a phrase: The Dunning-Kruger Effect.

More on the Dunning-Kruger Effect:
The Dunning-Kruger effect is not synonymous with low IQ. As awareness of the term has increased, its misapplication as a synonym for "stupid" has also grown. It is, after all, easy to judge others and believe that such things simply do not apply to you.
