Not Pretending 

A sarcastic phrase popularized by AdmiralBulldog and his circus of clowns, he calls MegaCucks.

Usually used to exhibit bewilderment and disdain against someone's actions or thoughts. This can be a response to somebody when you don't know if they are "pretending" to be dumb. It can be an affirmation of someone's stupidity.

Can be synonymous with replying to somebody who is being deadass wrong.

In other words, the feeling you get when you thought someone's actions or words were a joke but they were not.

Matthew: Do you actually believe that?
John: Yeah. I guess he couldn't take the pressure.
Matthew: *shaking head* Not pretending.
