While eating dinner with my aunt and uncle a few weeks ago, Ah-Bei (as I call my eldest uncle) pulled out a bottle of wine. (I drank more in that family weekend than I do on a normal weekend.)
Ah-Bei: So, tell us about the health benefits of wine.
Father: They're pretty general and obvious, right? Good for your heart, anti-oxidants...
Ah-Bei: No, I want to hear it from her. A Harvard-educated public health expert.

Later, debating the merits of animal fats.
Brother: True, they're saturated fats, but they are actually healthier-
Moi: I haven't read as much on it, but I don't think-
Ah-Bei: Hm. The public health PhD has doubts about this. I'm going to go with Harvard on this one.
