When you know you're right and the people who aren't right think they are.
For example, people who pronounce "corset" like "corsette" putting the stress on the second syllable. Unless you are French, you're doing it wrong.

I think it's funny that as I read this there is an ebay ad near the top of the page for girdles, when the word of the day is corset.

Just as a fun fact: In Sweden it's properly pronounced "corsette" or rather [koshette] with a silent r and a sh sound =P

Swedish should be the new French . . . the language Americans use when they are being pretentious . . . that would be awesome.

I think it's uncool and lame to be pretentious. It would be ironic!
