I really just prefer monster though, and don't attend functions where titles would be de rigeur, so it's all hypothetical. But your summary reminds me of my first ceramics instructor who would regularly proclaim "I didn't spend six years at art school to open glaze jars!" That was 10 years ago and we still remember her when some idiot asks the instructor to open the glaze jar for them.
