Why she might be annoying:

    She stuck completely with her own name upon marriage (when many others would tack their husband’s name onto it).
    In her opening press conference as Secretary, she was bluntly asked why she wasn’t masking as her boss's 100-day COVID-19 mask mandate was to go into effect.
    She tends to answer reporters’ questions – even the softball ones – with some variant of ‘I’ll have to circle back.’
    She has an older deputy secretary… from Haiti! (Well, we did have an older Vice President.)
    She is the daughter of a real-estate developer.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She attended the same high school as Hope Hicks.
    While at William & Mary, she was a competitive backstroke swimmer.
    Unlike a number of her predecessors, she actually cut her teeth in the White House scene.
    She has a realistic build that contrasts the physique of one predecessor (who is ten years younger) but matches another.
    She is the daughter of a psychotherapist in private practice.
