After careful scrutiny, I have determined this to be the most pretentious board on 4chan.

>> No.2033610

Damn right, we're number one.

Now get the fuck out, you're not pretentious enough to be here.

>> No.2033609

>>2033606
Aye.

>> No.2033611

/mu/ is the most stuck up board on 4chan. If you doubt me go visit there now.

/a/ is also more pretentious, only their standards are ass-backwards

>> No.2033612

Only when you're here.

I think you've mistaken pretentiousness with awesome, smart and witty.

No, I think you have, but vicey versy.

pre·ten·tious/priˈtenCHəs/
Adjective: Attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed.

What is wit?

smarter than me? must be pretentious.

/lit/ has the most interesting people and an interesting taste in music, art, films, and literature.
I love you guys! :3

Pretentious? Please, this is the Land of Pretensia. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before some George RR Martin fan draws a fantasy map.

Hm the first thing that comes to mind is a big penis sized island or something like that ... oh well

I'm sorry you feel that way. I guess it must be difficult feeling inferior at all times.

This board only has a handful of people on it, all of which come here to roleplay as the people they'd imagine would be on board like /lit/.

Yep and we like to write complicated long texts that no one else will bother to read anyways and pretend its some witty philosophical shit, toss in some names we read online and we are done.

I love this place

Maybe /lit/ is the place where pretension is the least veiled and easiest to see.

I come here to share and critique writing, talk about books I've actually read, and get new book options from other threads.

I...thought that's what we all did.

>> No.2033688

It's sort of interesting, seeing people referring to anonymous posts as pretentious. Cool projecting bro.

Well, first you'd have to learn to write.

Also, a command of the English language at some point would help, but that's never stopped some.

>> No.2033695

>>2033688
What if it is you, who is in fact projecting? Maybe we are all simultaneously projecting at once, composing external reality as we understand it from our interconnected projection. Would that not imply that my projection is no less a valid composite of reality than yours?

>> No.2033698

>>2033685
No, because to be pretentious you have to at least have a semblance of cultural sophistication. This is apparently lacking elsewhere, so their attempt at pretentiousness instead becomes retardation.

>> No.2033702

>pretentious

clearly the OP has never been to /fa/; what a bunch of circle jerking conceited fuckers over there. As well, there's /fa/ and the rest of the normalfag boards.

Yet this is the board with the largest relative amount of civil and polite discussion.

Most certainly. I get this weird kind of culture shock after spending a lot of time here exclusively and then going to /b.

The same thing happens to me when I go to /sci/ because they're autistic morons who can't understand irony and trolling

>> No.2033816

It took careful scrutiny to arrive at that conclusion?

Don't get me wrong - the board has some good on-topic discussion, but when the tripfags show up, it gets unbearable.
