No-one has responded to anything ive said on this thread, if anything could ever convict you of being pretentious, this is it.

I think we should start citing our work in this thread with APA/MLA standard works cited pages.

Get to work (Yarber 134).

I think we should all start drinking PBR and wearing work boots because we aren't pretentious.

And beer needs all the help it can get. It's bourbon or nothing, for me.

i'll drink pretty much anything but jager.

Actually I don't mind Jager at all. Put it in Mountain Dew and it tastes like heaven. But you'll be sick for a month.

And it (pabst) appears less sophisticated and, therefore, less pretentious I suppose. Hipsters can afford way better beer on their parents' dime.

Heh. It was more a glib comment than any serious belief.
In all honesty I'm probably around a 6-7 - I can certainly give people the impression of pretension if they don't know me well enough to know that it's mostly tongue-in-cheek, but can usually back myself up if required to.

I seriously can't drink beer. I get about 2/3 through one and feel sick. But I could drink straight Beam til I'm gone.

Cantankerous

the only thing i can't drink is vodka.

Clearly you need to pray to me and respond to God (Who incidentally is also me)
