Pretention versus Retardation

I used to have a fine vocabulary; I could regurgitate words like loquacious, epiphany, tempestuous, and nomenclature just for my amusement. Then again, I didn't have many friends and was often viewed as being condescending.

So, I started to accommodate the average yinzer with my language and speak like a normal human bean[sic]. I had to abjure these pretentious words in favor of more common vernacular.

So now look at the results of all of my efforts!



Now, I'm not implying in any way that my readers are of an elementary reading level, rather that I have generally retarded speech. Y'inz Guyz Goan Dahntahn N'at? :cringe:

P.S. I did not use a thesaurus for this entry and I was never THAT pretentious when speaking.
