• When you are on a planning committee for a science outreach day because not enough students are enrolled in honors STEM classes at your school (rich people and their dreams of power through finance... which obviously has no math involved!)
• When, while meeting with said committee, you secretly laugh at everyone for not knowing what monosaccharides, Benedict's solution, and non-Newtonian fluids are.
• When the following conversation happens with your AP Chem teacher:
  You: "So I was thinking that Benedict's would be a good hands-on thing for the middle schoolers."
  APC teacher: "Absolutely! Now, remind me what it tests for?"
  You: "Monosaccharides."
  *APC teacher rolls eyes*
