Either way. Is acceptable.

I like being arrogant. Yes, I know that ain’t necessarily a nice trait. It annoys some people. But still, I persist. On being brim full of confidence and arrogance. Not all my friends laugh.  When they ask me how I am.  And I reply: ‘I’m superior. In fact, in Minnesota they’ve named a lake after me. Lake Superior.’ Some take it as a joke. Others as unmitigated gall and arrogance.  Either way. Is acceptable.  With me. --Jim Broede
