displaying a self-image of being "special", "intelligent", and "different". not content with being average, and striving to be the best at everything and grabbing all attention. speaking in cliches. having no humility or originality.
AF: Doubt, give reason to smile. Guilt hears false pretenses.
me: What!?
AF: The wind caressed my face.
me: Your pretentiousness makes me want to staple your mouth shut.

Get the pretentious mug.Someone who throws the word around precariously as if somehow to be better than the other. A hypocrite, heavy flattery and an overbearing need to fit in with cliques.

Get the Presentation of Mary Academy mug.When a white male takes a black magic marker and writes "PERENIUM" between his legs on his perenium. Staring just below his ballsack and ending the word near his anus. The male then dresses up like Mario from the Nintendo's Mario Bros.
After that, the male will go to a sporting event featuring small to young children, such as PAL soccer or baseball. During a bad call by an umpire or referee, the male gets up and takes off his hat. He then waves his hat in the air and starts screaming "Yo !!!" to get everyone's attention. When a large majority then look at the male, usually consisting of the spectators and the children playing the game, the male drops his red overalls and his underwear and then lifts his leg. He points to his perenium with one hand and lifts his ballsack with the other hand while yelling "Perenium, Perenium, duh duh duh". Just as the onlookers start to show discust, the male the sticks the pointing finger into his rectum, pulls it out, then puts it in his mouth. The male then repeats it several times. After that, the male alternates between both until most likely, someone noticing this event takes matters into their own hands. Usually a parent.

I was bored so I dressed up like Mario and went to a local soccer game at the school and performed a Mario Bros Perenium Double Dip Presentation. After I was badly beaten, I was arrested and I need a lawyer.

Get the Mario Bros Perenium Double Dip Presentation mug.A person who claims to be a fan of Folk Legend Bob Dylan, but in actuality they know and like a few songs and are quite unaware of the real genius that is Dylan. They also use this love and faux knowledge of Bob Dylan to seem cool and hip in certain settings.
How a Pretentious Dylan Lover came to like Bob Dylan can be explained in a number of ways. A boy they liked could have played a Dylan song on the guitar, or they could have seen Watchmen. What ever the reason they have normally only been aware of Dylan for a few weeks and want every one to know that they know and like Bob Dylan. Bob Dylan!
A Pretentious Dylan Lover will be excited about a new Bob Dylan album, or tour, where as everyone else knows there is nothing to be excited about. A Bob Dylan song could come on the radio and a Pretentious Dylan Lover would be unaware that the song is by Bob Dylan- that is how most Pretentious Dylan Lover are in fact found out.

I am not pretentious and I make no claims to a position of merit, and therefore I don't demand that you agree with me.
