People do so amuse me.
I had posted my lovely poem Lady Winter, which appears here, upon one of the forum boards I belong to, where I have had issues before with a couple members that I have discussed here before, and one such of these memebers acutually responsed as thus:
"My reply to this would be akin to Alceste's response to Oronte's similar short poem in Moliere's play The Misanthrope."
Does it really get any more pretentious then this? I mean really. Perhaps I ought to just stop bothering having my own opinons about things and just begin referhig people to read varrious different plays if they wish to know what I think.
For those whom might be currious I will spare you the hasstle and you may rest assured that ultimately Alceste thought the poem was crap, as well this particualr person rather personaly dislikes me and has not much good to say about anything I write, so I hardly pay attention to his opnions. But I must say that was a new one.
I mean is it even humanly possibly for a person to sound more pretensious?
I could just picture him sitting in some leather chair before a fire smoking a pipe and talking in a fake brittish acccent. Probaly wearing a tweed jacket with leather elbow pads.
Quite the riot really.
Oh and I am quite aware of the irony of it all, no doubt this comment makes me quite the arrogent ass.
