I'm pretentious as fuck. You may only post in this thread if you've ever been magniloquent in the presence of a complete stranger or dear friend (casual acquaintences don't count, asshead).

[ziggytrix]

I was disturbed to find thesaurus in the thesaurus. However I was not satisfied with any of the listed synonyms. :posh

[glowbelly]

perhaps you should endeavor to create your own list of equivalent expressions. :posh

Do co-workers count? If so, then I'm already posting.

I'm condescending and a bit of an elitist. I don't deny this. I make distinctions between Mockers and people who merely post on the I-Mockery boards. I hold everyone to the same standards. Some make the grade, many do not. The degree of my condescension varies with the amount of idiotic crap on the boards. The greater the volume of idiocy and dumbassedness, the shorter my temper. The type of imbecile for which I have the least amount of patience is the type that thinks it's funny to get a rise out of a Mocker. There's nothing funny about acting like an ass and pissing someone off. There's no talent involved in that. It's no better than flooding. It's absolutely childish. Yet so many damned fools around here continue to do it. They're like fucking abused creatures that keep coming back for another beating. Whether the reason is masochism, immaturity, or being too stupid to realize they're making a mockery of themselves, it's just pure stupidity.

There's something you have to learn and it's patience and tolerance.

[Sethomas]

According to the philosophy board's living embodiment of pompousness, I belong in this thread. I guess that's saying something.

[:(]

You're not pretentious if you really are better than everyone else.

Of course, I'm not better than anyone, so I wouldn't know. :(

I was watching that metallica dvd 'cunning stunts' the other day and when I wanted to mention something about it to a friend, I mispronounced the title as "stunning cunts". I thought it was the best mispronounciation ever. Fuck you kellychaos.

Edit: I thought I'd edit this out, but it's as good a reply as any. Fuck you kellychaos.
