The only people that I've known that have had them were terrible at life. Book smart, but just sucked at life so hard that you're amazed they somehow haven't died yet. One guy was an alcoholic, and probably a coke head. Decently good self taught engineer - he knew his shit more often than not when it came to talking about concepts. When it came to not drinking yourself into a stupor and/or not going on a coke binge all night so you could get to your job on time, and not be an unbearable asshole, he 100% failed at that. He also 100% failed at being to properly implement any of the ideas he was supposed to come up with. I'm not sure why it took so long for that place to fire him, but I'm sure glad they did eventually get around to it.

Also, he would always claim it was his ex-wife that was the coke head and he left her. I don't think any of us bought that line. This guy really SNIFFED loudly a lot. Some bad allergies, huh? Of course, the eyes were also a dead give away.
