There's a couple of things about him, one is that he showcases intellectual insecurity regarding his ideas. He also breaks under pressure fairly quickly, there's a noticeable tendency of puffing his chest then withdrawing through obfuscation, and nitpicking as forms of evasion. It's actually pretty comical how fast he goes from attacking to defending himself. My guess has been that korpsy is an emotionally fragile individual who doesn't do well against people attacking him. He withdraws as a defense mechanism, and alludes to having a greater understanding and information source to protect his fragile ego from scrutiny and pressurized attacks in an area he is sensitive in as well as allowing him to maintain his image as someone whose intellect is worthwhile. This also has the added benefit of allowing him to be fairly emotionally detached when interacting with people, although from his comments I believe he is severely underestimating the impact some of these exchanges have on him (given that any attempt in discussing his emotional sphere ends in a misdirection, this is probably another sensitive area of his, one he is mostly oblivious to in terms of understanding). If I had to guess, judging by his personality, his intellect is probably where he derives his sense of self worth from as I doubt he has gotten much praise for his personality and 'pleasantness'. Another guess - it is his inability to deal with these aspects of his life that lead to relationships dissipating for him and/or people being repulsed by him, not so much the characteristics themselves. So long story short, yes he is essentially a pussy.
Haha, why doesn't this surprise me.
