The medical term for when someone manages to get their head so far up their own ass, that you could consider it a medical emergency.
Some call it serious but most people just call it annoying.
More common amongst teens usually emo or goth, but can still be spotted in adults. Best way to deal with these people is to just not give them the time of day.

Get the Pretentious mug.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 pretendious 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.

Get the pretentious mug.A busy-body who meddles in others' business or state of affairs. This is usually a result of an insecurity of themself or stems from being over-taken by jealousy of others which removes them from the center of attention where they are used to being. This person seldom looks at themself as being the problem and often wonders why those around them do not get along well, and often times blame others for the problems. A pretentious fag should look at themselves in a mirror and do a case-study of the case-subject at which they are looking which should pre-occupy them for a substantial amount of time. By doing so, it would prevent them from making an ass of themself and also allow others to get along well.
Sentence: Move on along and stop mentioning my name and meddling in others' business, pretentious fag.
