It is kinda funny that the filmmakers bothered to give it a more phonetic spelling

But did you really learn it, or did you just memorize it long enough to get a C on the test?
I'm going to try the Stanley Parable. If I come back all pretentious, don't be afraid to pull the trigger. It's what I would have wanted. Wow that sounded less macabre in my head.
Something I was just thinking about: I notice no one seems to talk about The Cosby Show anymore. It was one of the biggest hits of all time, it had a spin-off that did well, and it only ended in 1992 (when it was still incredibly popular) because Bill Cosby wanted it to end. Viacom got the syndication rights, which was seen as a huge coup.
Now, I can't even think of anyone who reruns it.
My best guess is that most of the people on the Internet now are too young to remember the show. They were either not even born yet or in diapers when it was at its prime. People seem to remember The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, though, largely because it's younger by 6 or 7 years and was still fresh in people's minds when Web 2.0 was starting in the mid-2000s. Cosby was essentially something your parents watched.
What's weird is that Bill Cosby himself is still pretty well-known, but more for being Bill Cosby than any of his shows.
"Pretentious" means that a work has undue pretense of the importance/quality of execution of its message or aesthetic conceit. But it really doesn't work as a damning criticism because it doesn't actually imply anything about the importance/quality of execution of the work's message or aesthetic conceit except that it's not as important/quality as the work thinks it is.
But so often I see people use it as if it were a damning criticism.

I distinctly remember The Cosby Show as being the show that aired on Nick@Nite after I was supposed to be in bed, so I look at it fondly as part of my childhood. Ditto with Fresh Prince. And Full House. (And more recently, George Lopez.)
In fact, I'm 90% sure that my late night tendencies are the end result of years of being kept up by the television my brother felt he needed to fall asleep to.
Really, my vocabulary is quite extensive and I do not need words explained to me or defined for me 99% of the time, and such explanations of simple concepts come off as insulting

This is not me "reading in subtext". I have explained that you have said a thing that unintentionally came across as insulting. Which happens, you're human, whatevs. I also proffered advice as to what it was specifically that came off as insulting so that you can see where I am coming from and how you can avoid being unintentionally insulting moving forward, and I have been trying to communicate this in the most emotionally neutral, freindly manner possible. It is not a chastisement or a rebuke, but a notification and some advice.

hence the distrust

And on that note I am signing off for the night
wow
I never realized how closely my childhood was connected to Nick@Nite until now
but in a realm where a wretched hive like /b/ is allowed to exist, peeps kinda have to keep their guard up to an extent
