If there’s one thing pretentious people just love, it’s being monumentally busy and belonging from high class. The world is a fast-paced place, after all, and pretentious people are right in the thick of it at all times. They’re not like the rest of us, who just glide through life with nothing to do all day, waiting for them to be available so we can have something really fun to do. You are the Ford Crown Victoria to their Porsche 911 Turbo, so you better get out of the way, at least until they tell you there’s room in their passenger seat (which might be on the 10th of Never, honestly).
Despite their monumentally “occupied” status, don’t expect to ever see them anywhere out on the town. They don’t do the same things socially, because they exist on a higher plane, participating in activities to which you are not invited or they try to be social at places where they should be quite. They have a whole other set of friends that also have a whole other set of friends. And none of the friends you share in common will ever see them either. While this may sound suspicious (and you might start to suspect they are actually sitting at home on any given night in elasticized ankle sweats, eating some self proclaimed chef food and watching re-runs of “ FRIENDS, the whole phenomenon makes sense. The friends you have in common obviously suck as much as you do and aren’t invited either.
While pretentious people are very busy, they are often not very happy about the horrible things they have to do and in real life they are more horrible than a 1970's ugly and weired mix of wolf and a man called as wolfman. These also double as excuses for why they can’t work you into their schedules this week and will have to be penciling you in until after their “busy season:”
