An Introduction
I would write a panegyrical enconium to Mr. Bennett, like some of the other toadying sycophants in this class, but I know that he is too humble to enjoy that kind of falsely obsequious and unctuous servility. Let's just say I look forward to a collegial and intellectually rigorous colloquium.

ReplyDeleteAlso, this blog is very pink.
I see by Nick's response that he is merely a poser, not a true wordsmith. Thank you for such kind words. It's true. I hate toadying. And you have captured my essence. My "Rosebud" is clearly "humility. And I humbly thank for your words which are worth more to me than any panegyrical encomium.
ReplyDeleteHey I'm no poser. I never claimed to have a wide vocabulary and I don't pretend to. I find people who use "big" words to be rather pretentious.
ReplyDeletePretentious, huh? Ok, tough guy, we'll see about that. Just remember one thing, it's very dangerous for one film critic to accuse another of being pretentious. That particular malady is the "common cold" of all film aficianados. But, don't be offended. I was just razzin' ya. When I was 17, I didn't know what pretentious meant, let alone panegyerical or encomium.
ReplyDeleteI know, I'm just messing. The internet isn't very accomadating when it comes to sarcasm. I've encountered this problem many times.
