its close to 4am, im still up, and instead of writing my usual late nite/early morning blog “i shoulda been sleep hours ago” im up blog surfing. Ran across VSB (Verysmartbrothas.com) on twitter, yes, im on twitter, new to it so that might be one of the reasons im still awake. Anyways, i read this and a few other blogs, and believe me i wanted to re-post every last one of em lol. There were informative and entertaining at very least. But this one, this one right here (in my Katt Williams voice) this one kinda make me smirk at the screeen. I admit i was guilty of one of em… Check it out though, you just MAY BE A PRETENTIOUS ASSHOLE.

you suck. no…seriously, you do.

i’ve been there before.

i’ve walked this road.

it was a long time coming, but the change finally came.

you see, i used to be a pretentious piece of sh*t.

i was “that guy”, that asshole, that diva dude who’d ostentatiously play with his sidekick in public because he knew that nobody else had one, who owned 150 dollar t-shirts despite making less than 30 g’s a year, who once refuse to call a “solid 8” he met at the club because he thought her first name was stupid.

i made my “recovery” sometime around the summer of 2003, when realizing that my outrageousness was becoming increasingly detrimental to my overall growth. i wasn’t pleased with who i was becoming as a person, and my pretentious aura attracted pretentious women…a fact that still makes me dry heave when thinking about it.

this state of mind isn’t uncommon though. there are many pretentious people among us, some completely unaware of their dangerous levels of pretention and how theyre self-sabotaging their own dating experiences.

so, as a service from vsb, i’ve decided to provide you all with a simple ledger, a guide, a list naming…

…9 signs that you can very well be a pretentious piece of sh*t

1. you refuse to eat at chain restaurants.

i don’t know whats worse, the fact that people actually think like this, or the fact that people think like this and actually arent ashamed to admit it in public. luckily, ive never had to date a woman who felt like this, because i would have been tempted to go all morgan spurlock on her ass, making every outing nbmd (nothing but mickey d’s)
