Minnesotan: “Where do you go to school?”
My D1: “Haverford”
Minnesotan (impressed, but feeling a need to correct D1’s pronunciation): “Oh, HARVARD!”
D1: “No, Haverford. It’s a small liberal arts college in Pennsylvania.”
Minnesotan (suddenly not impressed): “Oh . . . Well, how did you end up way out there? Do you have family there or something?”
