Not a fan of ‘Ms. Angelou’ but in this case she may be correct.

If you’ve nothing bad to say about a leftist then say nothing at all.

I'm no fan of her either. Something about her voice grates me the wrong way.

But I think she has a point. She has a right to be called the name she prefers but the way she threw it back into the girl's face was kind of negative. The way she actually responded was pretty snarly.

Like a dog snarling and showing its teeth to you when he doesn't want to do whatever you're trying to do to him.

She could have said, "Hi. How are you? Would you mind calling me Ms. Angelou instead of by my first name? I prefer that. Thanks.

Sweet as sugar. Easy Peasy. Polite and respectful. The girl would most likely have understood and responded in kind.

I hate her poetry. Get me out of the room fast.

Yeah she’s right. In my house it was always yes sir yes ma’am no sir no ma’am and to others it was yes Mr Smith or No Mrs Smith. Never call anyone out of their first name, especially an elder, unless you’re friends or they want you to
