Is it the international day (weekend) of The Fried Liver attack? I've played three chess games as black in the last two days and all of my opponents used it (and otherwise see it very rarely)

This happens *very* rarely, like once every 25 games for me. And just yesterday, I've lost three 5+5 games, two of which quite stupidly.

I then came up with this: one is arrogant insofar as they think the only way to do something (or the only way to think about something) is the way they do it.
Is this a good definition?
