lol, its pretentious because its unnecessary. There are very few words you have ever written that I don't know the meaning to. a. is proof in point to you trying to act superior by writing in such a manor. Hence you are pretentious.Uzique wrote:
a) You find it pretentious only because of your own inability to comprehend, i.e. you're a fucking stupid moron, and take offense to 'proper' language because it is beyond your basic understanding.Vilham wrote:
i was just referring to how your a pretentious prick with your english, trying to act superior, and yet not knowing incredibly common sayings.Uzique wrote:
You're trying to make criticisms whilst mysteriously using capital letters for the 'English language'? Lulz.
Idioms and figures of speech are not universal, shoo now you opportunist little fucker.
b) "Incredibly common sayings" is the whole point that I am contending. An idiom and turn of phrase in California may not be recognised in Alabama. Here in the South-West, certain sayings that come up in almost every single casual conversation will not be recognised several counties east; it's a dialect, a vernacular, a true 'figure of speech'. Not all sayings that you are familiar with are necessarily well known in other parts of the country. If I were to say to you mid-way through a conversation - "ow bist olle butte?" - you probably wouldn't be able to derive and respond properly without knowing the person/context or without the aid of a quick Google search. And that's one of the most obvious phrases and common phrases of speech in my home area - get my point yet?
Basically, you're lurking and trying to pick out flaws and trump me in the English forum because you somehow get off from feeling superior at something that you (wrongly perceive) me to be very prideful over. I make grammar, spelling and English mistakes all the time; I don't come here to practice my dissertation technique, thank you very much. I'm not going to pretend I've read into the Penguin Book of English Idioms, either, to gain a mastery of all the phrases from every single area and county of the English speaking world. Kthx, go back to geekishly tossing yourself off by one-upping console kiddies in the Other Titles forum now.
I live in the south, its a common saying.
If I was lurking trying to catch you up I have had plenty of chances, I normally refrain because you wet your pants and then I have to get into a debate with you on how your a massive hypocrite to clearly no avail.
Clearly Ive riled you though. Very sorry.
nice last comment says mr elitist TF2 player, your inability to see your hypocrisy is what makes most of your posts hilarious.
Elitist TF2 player? Do you know what you're talking about, or is this more babbling shit?
My first sentence was a proof of my pretentiousness?
I don't live in the South; I live in the South-West, it's an area with massively different cultural and lingual origins, non-comparable.
I don't even know where to begin really, you're a massive /facepalm.

everyone shut up! Back to the original topic or get lost to EE chat.
So what if uzique hadn't heard of a phrase, he's learnt a new one. I'm sure there are lots of things many of you guys dont know. Probably more than uzique, cos no matter what you think of him he's clearly intelligent. Now everyone move along.
