Air or Heir?

At first glance this post from an alleged ex-Apple Store employee looks reasonably intelligent. There are a few problems with punctuation but nothing too bad for a blog comment. That is until you read the second-to-last sentence: “Heir of superiority.” Does that mean a person of superior genes? Were his parents superheroes? I kid.

Son, it’s “air of superiority” as in “putting on airs.” A figure of speech, “put on airs” is defined as: “to act better than one really is; to pretend to be good or to be superior.”
