Pretentious Pretension & Pretentiousness

Alex and his family ate at the Harvard Faculty Club this morning for Father's Day Brunch (Alex's dad is a Harvard Med prof, remember) and during this meal, little sister Mickey reached for some crackers with (gasp!) her bare hands. Alex said, "Mickey, use the tongs! What are you, a Yale faculty member?"

He's very proud of this comment. I thought I'd share.
