I never once equated me knowing how to pronounce bruschetta with me being cultured nor did I make a link to someone getting it wrong not being cultured.

Really Cecil, either you're putting a lot of effort into trolling and doing a good job of it, or you need to reflect a little more on what you've written and how you're constantly implying that you know better than others. It's not a very open discussion if someone just assumes the correctness of their position.
