I have a talent for pretentiousness, and the Scriptures say that we shouldn'tOriginally posted by Jeff Lebowski View Postlol. Baser Mormon culture. Nicely done.occultveilbecloudhide our talents."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.

I think it's gauche.Originally posted by clackamascoug View PostI think using a foreign expression when a good English one will do, is cause celebre.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

Do it again!
Since I'm capable of waxing pretentious more than anyone here, save happyone, I offer that this thread shows how denigrating the learnèd man is a cause célèbre in baser Mormon culture. The native levels of pretentiousness resident here already long ago came astride, and even eclipsed the best efforts of the most arcane conventicles known to flesh and deity, informed by a self-denial only seen in Tom Cruise and wuapinmon exclaiming how much of a lying piece of crap the scales at the YMCA are. Magister dixit.
you said conventicles.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

It is certainly vogue for many here to express themselves pretentiously, but I am not wont to do so. Tarry on, ladies and gents!"Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."
Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

It's the sexualization of our culture.Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View PostI'm tired of how so many people declare they are passionate about whatever they do, especially when describing their jobs, or the jobs they seek. "Cost accounting is my passion!" What's wrong with simply "wanting" to do/eat/hear something? Why is "passion" an apparent prerequisite?PLesa excuse the tpyos.
