Also known as Snottsdale

Part of a conversation at dinner this evening with a woman I had met only once before:

Woman: We're moving to Arizona next Tuesday.
Me: Oh, really? Whereabout?
Woman: Scottsdale.
Me: Oooh, Snobsdale.
Woman: Yeah, I'm from there.

Oops.

What makes this story even funnier is earlier in the evening I extolled my tact during a particular e-mail correspondence with her mother to everyone seated at the table. On the bright side, the woman's husband seemed to enjoy my sense of humor.
