Hubris, ostentation, whatever term is chosen - it seems that every thread pertaining to the current consumer situation eventually becomes a stampede to let everyone know just how superior we are in terms of preparation. Perhaps we could confine all of our attempts at dislocating our shoulders patting ourselves on the back to this one thread, freeing us of the need to constantly be on the look-out for other threads in which to praise ourselves.

Awwwww....Cumonn...

Don't feel so bad John, no naked women,---------yet.

Be careful or you will open the floodgates of those who will go to great lengths to tell the world just how incredibly humble and ordinary they are, and how they are way more humble and ordinary than everybody else...

Well John, if your thread falls to the center of the earth, it will have lots of company in most of "my" threads.
