The Personification of Pretense

A regular critique of modern popular culture with a bit of political and philosophical musings in an effort to inspire dialogue and debate. Also, jokes about rectal insertions and pig wankers!

Oh how I do loathe the word 'blog'.

Hi everyone. My name is Frank. I'm from Stroud in Gloucestershire (UK) and I have a problem. For the last five years or so I have been consumed by the plague of pretentiousness that has been sweeping our nation. It is so overpowering as to mean there is little of me that is real substance. It is so overpowering that I cannot hold a conversation without slipping in references to Herodotus, or the didacticism of Swift, or the poetry of William Blake (hey! I even know his first name), or the fact I'm learning one of the world's hardest languages. So this weblog is my confession. Hopefully it will be updated regularly with articles and musings that alienate all with their fascinating obscurity and downright superiority to everything else ever written by anyone ever. As it goes, although I know about everything I will be logging on the subjects of politics, religion, music, videogames, film and literature. So if you want to bathe in my brilliance and bow in obeisance, I naturally acquiesce.
