“Great” new term

I’m listening to a Recorded Books lecture on tape about the Epic in literature and the professor throws out this great new term, “sneer quotes”. Those are the quote marks smarmy types put around information they deem to be specious. Some people make sneer quotes in the air with their fingers, too. I’m so going to be using sneer quotes in all of my “writing” in the future.

Bwah-ha-ha!
