    I believe that in the context of JPaul's post, the definition "pretentious" would be the most apt.

    If I were to say "flash for the sake of it" would you sleep easy.

    Or perhaps, gratuitous may describe it better.

    And you spotted the reference. "You never disappoint".

    However I am sure you will agree that the language is living and growing. If we accept new words we must also accept new grammar, syntax etc.

    For example it would appear that to split an infinitive is no longer the mortal sin it once were.
    I guess that is about as close as I will come to getting you to fully admit that I was "spot on". If only such a thing WERE possible.

    If general ignorance of grammar already set in place for such a conditional circumstance is considered growth, I would hate to see this living language hit puberty.



    edit: added the letter "f" to meretriciousf to appease Clocker
    Aren't we in the trust tree, thingey?
