not very picky are you?
I replied:
I prefer to think I am dependable in my steadfast allegiance to beauty in all of its shapes.
to which she responded
what you just wrote about yourself, you should put that in your "about me" section
Which isn't a bad idea, but on the other hand I'm not quite sure. Looking back, it looks fucking pompous. Which of course I am, but I try to cut it. So I thought I'd put it to you, my gentle reading audience. Pompous...or fabulous?

The line sounds precisely like the sort of thing a person might say to deliberately poke fun at his own pretentions and thereby let everyone else know that he's in on the joke. The genuinely self-important and pretentious person can't laugh at himself; that's, like, the opposite of pomposity. But if you don't use this line because you're afraid it might make you look pompous, that would mean you're controlled by your vanity and concern for your public appearance...and that would be pompous.
Curses! I've been run rings round logically!
