I'm sorry, I guess I had a different perception of the joke "she" was attempting to make. I saw it as a tongue in cheek reflection of those in a rarified socio-economic class being so wrapped up in their self absorbed world that a snobbery and cultural insensitivity is developed. I saw it as the writer taking a jab at certain people who may actually think this way from under the guise of a character that is being played.
Now, I'm not sure it was actually funny... but that's another discussion.
