I know quite a lot of people like Mr. Shulan. They assume that by disdaining their Americanism they are transcending it. In fact, they aren’t even living up to it. That doesn’t take the superior smirk off their faces, but it’s a fact.
I shun idiots like this shulan moron. They aren’t worth the time of day. They are worth inconveniencing and ridiculing, however.
