Thanks Rye but let me get this straight so if an amog is trying to amog you just complement them? sounds like rewarding bad behaviour but anyways ill do it. How would you react to this or what would you say if your asking for advise from an amog or if he tries to be cocky with you? like for example...
You have to be sincere about it though. Even if he's being a dick, you just pretend like he's really trying to be a good guy and that's what you think.

Me- Hey do we do this paper first or that one? (school assignment)
Amog- DONT YELL AT ME! (he says it in cocky funny way)
Whisper what you said and act like you thought he honestly meant what he said, but at the same time that you realise he's being ridiculous. It's hard to explain, but it works amazingly well. I'll give you an example based upon your second example.

Me- (I remember this one time that I was in class and I messed up)
Amog- O! nice one bro
"Hey thanks! I thought it was pretty awesome too!

"
What's he gonna do?
"Oh...shit he just agreed with what I said fullheartedly....while smiling and looking at me like I am honestly an idiot for saying the stupid thing I said...well I can't contradict that now, cause I'll look even stupider, so I'll just play it off."
Soon enough he's just complying with what you say and trying to gain your approval by being nice. When he does you are just as honestly acknowledging how awesome he is and thus he feels great about himself now that he's gained your approval. He seeks to maintain that approval.
The reason guys try to amog other guys is because they feel it will get them fear, which they equate as being approval and respect. By showing them they don't have that, you ruin their plans and they will jump at whatever opportunity there is for gaining that approval.
