God, you Jews are truly exotic." Exotic? She should only know the Greenblatts. Or Mr. and Mrs. Milton Sharpstein, my father's friends. Or for that matter, my cousin Tovah. Exotic?

Calling something exotic emphasizes its distance from the reader. We don't refer to things as exotic if we think of them as ordinary.
