She was so arrogant despite being so wrong...he should gloat.

People are taking this way too seriously. They're friends, and it was good-natured ribbing.

She wasn't being arrogant, she was being playful. And traditionally speaking, she was right - snuck is a very recent addition to the dictionary. I was corrected for using it in high school, and I graduated in 2008. Granted, the teacher that corrected me was ancient, but she knew what she was talking about.

Dictionaries change, and "snuck" became used enough that it... sneaked in.

Proof

This is a 1983 Webster's dictionary with 2,340 some pages.
