WELL EXCUSE ME MR FANCY PANTS!!
i'm sorry to break this to you but i have a large a varied vocabulary, my frieds and i talk about philosophy with them too. However the deabte is not whether or not you earned your degree honsetly or not.
the debate is whether Kevin's dialogue is meant to be real or not.
I feel that in 'clerks' the complicated dialogue is supposed to run against the perception of store clerks...when we see a store clerk, do we think, i'm going to speed-talk about philosophy to this guy? Nope we think. i wish they'd smile once and a while. Or if you shop at K-mart..."Why the fuck are these peons smiling? all they do is serve up the lower end slave labour products!" but i digress.
the amount of different and challenging ideas that these two guys produce is astounding, and they do it all using language that makes it easy for all the yolkels that don't have all the fancy five dollar words like Dr. Neil.
sorry to rude but don't look donwn your nose at me.
