Do you think I sit there with a thesaurus or something?
nope. I think you spit extraneous drivel simply for the sake of reading your own thoughts and making yourself feel superior as if somehow the use of all those extra words and complete disdain for concise speech patterns makes you special. Truly special people don't have to try to make people notice them. You're fairly intelligent, but your confidence and forced bravado need some work.

I don’t use “extra words”. I use exactly the words I want to convey a specific feel. I can be laconic when I need to.
Begrudgingly, you have a point that I probably use too many “6 dollar words.” But it isn’t to wield some stupid linguistic cudgel over anyone. I like coming across words I don’t know, it makes me learn new ones. and words have specific meanings, so using them in the correct sense just seems natural.
Seriously I’m not trying to Tolkien anyone into oblivion. But I can’t always be Hemingway.
