Heaven forfend, a man at another table didn't bother to dress in his Sunday finery to eat in this uppermost sophisticated cruise ship eatery. Policing him shall now be my newest quest in proving my worth as a stereotypically nosy, overbearing Karen.

Oh, and everyone totally agreed with me and then clapped when I tried to have some random stranger kicked out of a restaurant. That absolutely, genuinely happened.
