This dork honestly thinks he is so intelligent, so superior, such a star, who would NOT want to listen to him go on forever. It's the same elitist attitude that makes him think it is ok to keep people waiting. Nothing starts until he arrives, so it doesn't matter what time he gets there. Arrogant snob.
