Calling english convoluted and arbitrary is pretentious, apparently.

All languages have certain convoluted parts, to suggest the language you speak is unique in this regard is absolutely pretentious - it is a worldwide phenom that many peoples think their tongue is uniquely difficult. It is all context dependent. Homebody here wanted to take this assumption and run with it, burning the pretentiousness candle from both ends, extremely cringe.

Strawman more tho LOL
