Definition: Flame shouldered is a term that's often used to describe someone who's overly confident and proud of themselves, particularly when they're not really that good at what they're doing. It might seem like a harmless phrase in everyday conversation, but there are plenty of negative connotations associated with it.

Let me give you an example: Example sentence: "Flame shouldered is the ultimate in arrogance when it comes to her work." This expression signifies someone who's overconfident and proud of themselves, often causing others to feel uncomfortable or unapproachable. It implies that the person isn't really capable of doing the job well, even if they think they're very good at it. Flame shouldered is a playful way of saying 'flame is being too cocky' in a serious tone, making it all the more unsettling.
