Not to brag, but did you notice how good I am at holding back whenever I want to tell you about how good I am at something?

I know I start a lot of posts with "not to brag" but it's because I know someone who does this all of the time and then immediately brags about something so I need to come here and make fun of it in my own little way to maintain the peace in that relationship and restore balance in the universe.

So, whenever you see one of these, please know that it's only because I just suffered by experiencing it for real.

@Alice It reminds me of the people who go on and on about a shitty complaint with no solution only to end with "just sayin'".
Just sayin'.

xD

@thejikz @Alice

you know, that's a touching openness and vulnerability there that comes off as flippant if you don't take the guy seriously.

But take him at face value and it's sweet. "I hate that this is how it is, but I just cant think of a way to make it better"

@Alice This is a great coping mechanism!
@Alice "no disrespect, but..."
@Alice 100% the best at it
@sweetcherry THANK YOU for acknowledging it!
@Alice Your humbleness is a paradigm for all the rest of us to follow.

@dadakopf @Alice

of all of her many fine traits she is most proud of her humility

@Alice you should not brag more often
@Alice Absolutely excellent at it!

Yup, but honestly: you don't need to hold me back from leaving before you start, I'd stay and listen anyway.
