to be honest witcha

I am not as well-read as I purport to be. I’ve only read one third of Jack Kerouac’s On the Road, yet I find myself bringing it up in conversation often. I mean, I don’t tell people I’ve read the book, but I am aware that they might assume I have when I say something like “There’s a Kerouac quote that’s very fitting for this” in my low-pitched, pseudo-intellectual voice.
