Gracie: Nora, do you think being smart is cool? Nora: Being smart is great! I wish I was smarter! Nora: But I never want to be a smart Alex. That would be annoying. Gracie: I'm sure you mean 'Aleck'... not 'Alex.' Nora: Maybe I mean a 'Miss know-it-all'!
I would prefer to be told that it is not a “smart alex” or a “chester drawers” or that is not the correct way to pronounce “impetigo”, and so I correct (as gently as I can manage) but I do probably come off as a smarty pants, know-it-all, jerk on occasion. Sorry, everyone!
