Woah, an ad hominem followed by a fallacious conjecture!

That's interesting; I would assume a person studying English would have more respect for etymology and phraseology.

Since you brought up your acedmic achievements, I suppose I'll mention that I maintain a 101 cumulative GPA (on a scale of 100, of course), though I believe information like this serves no merit in a civilized discussion.
stop trying to show off lmao

Of course it's an ad hominem, the reason I wrote the post was to tell you that you look like a pretentious idiot, so I told you that you looked like a pretentious idiot.

As an English student I have plenty of respect for someone who can use the English language and get their point across in an intelligent way. I have no respect for someone who spews out unintelligable rubbish because they somehow believe that dressing up their argument with pretentious and pointless language will make it more effective. As for the academic achievements, I only brought mine up since you tried to belittle me.

Your stance is, as I understand it, "I don't like how you use big words as it makes you sound pretentious." However, you can't prove that is my intention.

At what point does using uncommon vocabulary turn from sophisticated to pretentious? It's an incontrovertible blurred line.

I suppose we could continue this argument if you so desire, however, it is clear to me that this is going nowhere; there is simply not enough evidence to facilitate a debate relying solely on opinion.
