pretendster

A spurious personality registered on a social networking website: very often the individual is claiming to be someone famous, although sometimes the name assumed, and the asscociated character, are completely invented.

Associated terms: foaf; Friendster; fakester; troll; IP

"In this online age of fluid and epic identities, there are Friendsters and there are pretendsters ... This person, whoever they are, ain't no Friendster. She's a lower-cased anti-social butterfly-troll - effecting stagnation amidst the six degrees of separation. Upstanding internet users aren't ashamed to let others know exactly who they are: IP's ain't herpes! She is posing as the pop star, Chrissie Hynde, but I doubt the real Chrissie Hynde would be friends with someone who, it says in their profile, is an inspector for the guild of butchers. The real Chrissie Hynde is an outspoken vegetarian and even her band, called "The Pretenders", never stooped to actually pretending to be someone else. Did you know that Chrissie Hynde cuts her own hair?"

pretember

When one person is attempting to reference a memorable experience with another individual the other doesn't always remember the event. In order to avoid an awkward episode of the story teller trying to jar the memory of the other party, one will "pretember" the event. They will pretend to remember so that the story may go on.

Mike: "Hey Joe, do you remember that time as kids when we went to the neighbor's house and snooped around?" Joe: "No, Mike, I don't remember that." Joe: "Really? It was that yellow house next door and it was raining that day." At this point Mike just wants Joe to get on with the story, so he implements his pretembering. Mike: "Oh yeah! I pretember that!"

pretendabilty

For moments when you want to make fuckashima...erm....Hiroshima look like child's play, A.K.A the measurement of how fucking pretentious one can be at any given moment.

Usually measured on the Richter scale, from 1 to 10, for scientific accuracy (Has been measured as high as 69 at times)

Combined with the theorem of abortion relativity and distortion, makes a great way of describing one's current behavior.

"Honestly, he's a fucking 69 on pretendabilty scale at the moment"
"His pretendabilty makes him very abortion worthy right now.... someone get me the high tensile rope..."
