Only time I got funny looks was when I uttered the phrase "Imma go kafkaesque on yo ass!".

It's funny because those are the kind of people who use the word Kafkaesque and never use it in the manner it was intended.

> that feel when you always use words like "kafkaesque" around your plebeian friends because you know they won't know what you're talking about and they'll probably just think you're a really smart guy and this will make up for not having anything meaningful to say to the people you call friends and thus at least temporarily you will be able to put off confrontation with The Void.
