Forks, this is a really good point, it got me thinking, i know people who are exactly like that, and it doesn't endear them to anyone. One girl in particular, started listening to Ben Kweller after this mutual friend of ours, who is gigantic music connosieur (yet manages not to be pompus about it) and even more, just a great lover of music, started suggesting to basically everyone of us that we ought check Kweller out (he has the innate ability to pick out really great songs that everyone else he suggests them to end up really enjoying the songs and they tend to catch like a fever), and now we're all hooked, yet this girl went around saying what posers the rest of us are, Ben Kweller is "hers" and nobody else should be able to listen to him, even though she only heard of Ben Kweller through our friend.

On a funny note, those people who do so often act superior in regards to almost any sense also almost always are insecure enough to be annoyed and hurt when they DO find someone whose knowledge and depth is greater than theirs, and that can be interesting to see, if you ever catch a glimpse a clash of egos like that.

If you could really get to know someone and know that they weren't lying to you, then you would know the world was real. Because you could agree on things, you could compare notes. That must be why people get married or make Art. So they'll be able to really know something and not go insane.
