Why she might be annoying:

Her education is in political science and not economics.
Her work has been ignored by the very people who need to read it the most: government and business leaders.
Her writing is incredibly convoluted and complex.

Why she might not be annoying:

She won the Nobel Prize for demonstrating that small groups, like tribes and families, utilize resources better than large groups like government and big companies.
She simultaneously holds down teaching positions at Indiana University and Arizona State.
She was also the first woman to win the Johan Skyette and the William H. Riker prizes.
She doesn't whine about sexism, she just goes out and kicks men's butts.
She is a great role model for young women everywhere.
