D.H. Lawrence uses "meritorious persiflage" in his Lady Chatterley's Lover, a something that almost DEMANDS a swift boot in the ass . I was fucking PISSED that I did NOT know EITHER of these two words, I mean FUCK, I was in my SENIOR year expecting a DEGREE in English Lit, yet there I was needing a DICTIONARY like some dunce or unschooled cur .
As far as I go, I always try to speak the English real good, but see what happens ? I WANT folks to think well of me --- I WANT them to say, "He done speak him the English real good ." I mean shit, who DOESN'T want THAT ? I've termed it >>.Redneck Intellectualism<<< . I even have a gag for it based on "What's-his-name" the Redneck Comedian who cited "You know you're a Redneck when"... . Here it is : You know you're a Redneck Intellectual when you can use "meritorious persiflage" in a sentence .
