bodleing2: I'm not sure how you relate being 'aware' to pretentiousness. I would imagine a person who acts pretentious is far from aware.
The ego-self is possibly the source of most of our problems. Wherever we get hung up in pain and confusion, (and surely a pretentious person is confused,) we’ll find the ego.

Hmm Ok. i guess if you say so, it must be right.

2intrigued: Not me that's for sure although some people can be so full of themselves to the extent that they could very well do anything that could result in a prison term.
Lots have to play to there friends, peers and family wishes, and don't understand the consequences, and yes end up in prison for pure stupidity, and don't get out easily at all.

characterized by assumption of dignity or importance, especially when exaggerated or undeserved: a pretentious, self-important waiter. making an exaggerated outward show; ostentatious. full of pretense or pretension; having no factual basis; false

Yes, False people, pretending to be much better than what they are! Do they maybe believe it too, and need a wake-up call too?
It takes a significant degree of unhappiness to see things as they really are and all your most accurate opinions will be of what you don't like. The depressed are more likely to see the world for what is, but you don't want to be that real. It's a burden.

The will to live is a shield of ignorance and dreams and jokes which parry the blows from reality. Life would be very grim if nobody was pretentious.

Apart from false modesty which is just annoying. Make a song and dance of it we don't need the pretentious that really knows how to kill a vibe. That's what reality is for.
