I think it might be the case I'm becoming pretentious.

Just look at that title, aite ? And who even needs footnotes, for crying out loud, people (and by people we mean "scientists" and aspirants thereof) use them because they have to, same way they put that index list of unread books at the end. Who the hell adds footnotes to perfectly good text for naught besides his own perverse fucking pleasure ? And who even says "naught"!i

I mean, there's all sorts of

asciilifeform so, asciilifeform's resistive loss is ~80%. mircea_popescu's is, let's suppose, 1%, however much time he spends tying his shoes and operating the levers of his outer empire
mircea_popescu actually the girls tie my shoes.
mircea_popescu believe this or not, i reach such levels of chinese emperorhood.

"you know what would be an improved ballgag ? make the ball transparent, so you can fill it with spiders or whatever and she has to hold it in her mouth."
"that poor girl! why can't it be something nice, like chocolate ?"
"you know what... that'd be the height of pretentiousness, only eat chocolate pralines that have been carried in transparent ball gags by slavegirls for a day or two"iii

plus a list longer than the arm of what is allowed in the kitcheniv and what to do when and where and...

There's articles written in three random languages for no fucking reason at all, a translation would have worked just as well (no it wouldn't) and then all that jazz about inequality and the list of thousands upon thousands of perfectly usable dumb cunts that got a curt "get lost, dumbo" & block, I mean, come on! Who blocks chicks on social media! By the thousand ?! It sure as fuck was the very first time it happened in each of the precious cuntlets' lives, we could even say I deflowered their online vagina ; and if we said that we'd almost be as pretentious as I am.

Plus all that jazz about creating new dictionaries and "words mean what I use them as", and in general...

I was looking for a particularily pretentions way to close this, and it finally occured to me : do you know anyone more fucking pretentious ?!

No ?

Well then... I guess you don't.

  1. "We should bring back betwixt. Such a better word than between. Lot of good words starting with be, like benighted. I've been using words on a Dr. Seuss level!"

  2. It's true, by the way -- they do. And it gives bystanders quite the pause whenever I have them do it in public, on the street. It's a different flavour of pause than for instance when I make them carry heavy loads while I walk about hands in pockets, whistling : that usually enrages a small subsection of older women, whereas this is more of a medical-concerned "oh poor guy, he's got bones growing in stomach" or somesuch. People are more than willing to "explain" their environment to themselves, hence all the guessing.

    Speaking of which, it occurs to me the whole "guy got tattoo in Chinese thinking it meant X but it really means Y" is such a trope in English because of the English speaker's wholly inappropriate naive extension of a rule of English (that strings have definite, specific meaning), a property Chinese does not actually share.

    But all that notwithstanding -- they do it because they love me, and because there's nothiong more satisfying in this world than doing something for someone you think the world of. The fundamental conundrum of the human (as opposed to divine) condition is that if you let them do it, you're thereby pretentious. (And yes, I'm outright saying that egotism is why Retard McMoron doesn't have Debby Doanything do his shoes for him. He's afraid it might make him pretentious, and that self-love muchly trumps in his own mind his concern for her needs -- such as the unmitigated and unmitigable need to serve.) []

  3. I don't know if you know (tho I expect you don't) that there's two drawbacks to wearing the gag for an extended period : on one hand the jaw muscles start to hurt, and it's quite painful ; on the other hand the lip commissures get irritated, and there's a specific (and peculiarly irritating) sore that develops the next day. []
  4. Very visibly observant Jewish doctor pointed out he only eats at home because he follows "very strict dietary rules" within earshot of girl, who managed to not explode laughing, "oh, he follows very strict dietary rules, har har". Because yes, ten millenia of Torah haven't managed to create the web of insane complexity I secreted in a scant few years. []

  1. Funnily enough, I regularly get hate mail for "pretentious bastard", and I don't even have kingdoms/thrones/harems on parade/gagged chocolate...

  2. Is it *really* pretentious when its your actual lifestyle informed by experience?

    @Stanislav Datskovskiy You know, oddly enough I never get that ?

    I suppose it crossed threshold horizon or something.

    @BingoBoingo Hey, the famously pretentious IRS accountant chick with the hats in Seinfeld wasn't not making the hats.

  4. mircea_popescu: sooo... while the right-honourable ingredients involved sit for a moment in a bowl to make friends with each other, allow me to describe for posterity what is right and properly known as "the despration breakfast".
    mircea_popescu: in a bowl you flake smoked trout, with chunked : onion (red, raw), pickled gherkins (salt pickles, not vinegar "pickles"), artichoke ; add capers, fresh (or salt-pickled) tarragon leaf. the base cheese is something sweet (schweizer works fine in this instant example), the signatuer cheese is something sharp (here, a very fine camambert, but ideally, casu marzu, well ripe).
    mircea_popescu: to be served on a bed of lettuce ; on the side : smoked sprats and eggs overed easy with cayenne pepper.
    mircea_popescu: and for desert -- breakfast doesn;t take desert ?! who says ! -- cashew chocolate paste and (separately!) cozonac filling, served on scottish-style shortbread cookies.
    asciilifeform: sounds heavy
    mircea_popescu: gotta get that cholesterol up somehow.
    mircea_popescu: plus, of course, a chardonnay, a zinfadel, something, preferably vienese style (crushed ice, mineral water, wine in equal parts)

    Boulle de Lille (aka Mimolette)?

    That might work. A more definite response will require further experimentation.

    PS. Are you an impostor ?

  1. [...] my lack of air and under water struggle while making out with a certain Wannaackins on the surface, pretentious much?!). Finally, the sun sets and we all enjoy watching it fade into the seemingly forever [...]

  2. [...] two empty cans of the best car oil there is and one empty jar of imported pickles (German). Because why not, right. [↩] Category: La pas prin lume Comments feed : RSS 2.0. Leave your own comment [...]
