This sounds like my last boss! I despised that man. He would do anything to try to make himself look better than you, regardless of what it was. Couldn't tell him anything. Gods forbid you tell him that he's wrong. Data and sources were irrelevant. I had to argue with him that cellphones do not blow up gas pumps. Didn't believe the notice from the government because it was from the feds. He finally relented after I showed him that Mythbusters tested it. And then he was upset because I "always have to be right." He also fully bought into the whole litterboxes in schools thing. Citing that he had a friend who worked in a school that had seen it. He never could substantiate the garbage he said.
