September 22, 2006:

Middlebrow pretense. Peculiar, petty-bourgeois elitism, where the elitist is too clueless to understand that she's outclassed in every respect by the very people she imagines herself to be moulding.

Arrogant adults, and their patronization of the young.

Where Sandy is at least a million times smarter than Miss Brodie, so much so that when the end comes it's like swatting a fly.
