"Pretend I understand menu's when haven't got a clue what some of the stuff is... Try and remember to Google it later  "

"I claim to know more about any given subject than any other person alive.
I also claim that all the experts are shocked when they come to acknowledge my big brain."
Sounds like cognitive bias |

"I don't have time to be pretentious. I'm too busy buying coffee for the homeless and driving my Mercedes at 19 mph past schools. "

I don't care if they want it or not, coffee cups just look good when I post about it on Facebook. |

"If someone has a username that's a reference (either historical or literary) I remind people I have two degrees so of course I'd get the reference. "

"I serve all meals on olive wood boards and make sure I'm seen reading Finnegans Wake on park benches around town."
Plus you use a copy of Ulysses as a door stop. |

"I sometimes drop big words into sentences, even if I don’t know what they mean, to make me look more intelligent and photosynthesis  "
I find people who do that are part of the embourgeoisement. |

"I use the plural of second declension Latin words when it should arguably be singular anyway.
Like - ooh I don't know - fora "
Ha! Very good Estra. You're oddly sexy when you're talking about declensions. I wouldn't expect anything less from someone with... how many degrees was it was again? You've not said recently and I've forgotten. |

"I like trying to use octopus, octopi and octopuses in the same conversation to confuse people.
Very good. But it’s octopodes "
Octopuses and octopi are acceptable plural forms in Oxford dictionary. Can you tell what my pretentious trait is yet? |
