For example; katsulover is always bragging about her and her husband owning successful businesses.

Writer of Truth is always stating she has an I.Q of 138, how smart she is, how superior she is and that she comes from a lineage of blue blood.

There is a difference between pride and bragging. Pride is being happy that you can accomplish something of value. Owning a business takes a lot of hard work.

Bragging is shoving success in the face of someone who does not have what you have and looking down on them for it.

I have noticed that there are a lot of people in the world who are jealous and say that pride is bragging. I cannot say that you are one of these because I do not know you. I assume not until proven otherwise. There are just losers in life who cannot take any joy in someone else's joys and successes. I see it everyday.

some people's bragging CAN be annoying indeed! However , one cannot determine their motive just from the act of bragging though; One has to figure that out from the context of what else they say with it. Don't jump to conclusions and stew around in envy or anguish. Be nice to them and yourself and just not call them all idiots.

Bragging can be used to try to make themselves feel acceptable, equal, or good enough! Everybody wants love and acceptance.
Maybe its a way for them to ask your acceptance, (Be a pal !)

OR it can be used to try to make themselves seem superior and so have power to make others feel inadequate, (Don't fret over it)

OR bragging can be used to acknowledge their luck or their accomplishments and share some encouragement or inspiration or wisdom with you. Maybe they're wishing good for you too.(Listen up then, eh! :)

OR bragging can be just the plain expression of their joy for what they have achieved or luckily received. (Actually, quite often the case. Share their joy ! congratulate them! Enjoy! Make some freinds!)

Remember all this! When you hear bragging, bite the bullet and think instead! Find the positive in it ! Don't feel bad with it! Make it good :)

Oh my dear friends... Before you respond to this idiotic question, go take a look at Wilbur's previous questions. In one of the ignorant questions he asked, I stated my I.Q. and my bloodline and that is the ONLY time I have ever done so on this website. I was doing it to prove a point. Not to brag. If you go back and look through the history of this whack job's questions, you'll get the full picture.

And when are you going to understand that I'm not mad? All you have to do is look at the number of thumbs down your questions get and you'll realize no one really cares what you think. Those who aren't downright rude to you just feel sorry for you. I am not one of them because I never pity ignorance.

Perhaps you might have a better response if you actually learned to form a proper question without letting your petty and in my opinion unwanted sarcasm and ill perceived superiority getting in the way.

To me it seems that you have the unique talent of putting your own foot in your mouth. So, you have no one to blame but yourself.

Now to address your question (though you hardly deserve it) some people like to express this or that because they actually have this or that, although I could be wrong especially given the fact that once again you have failed to create a question that makes sense. Do you even look at what you write? Here is it again, so maybe you'll read it now that it is part of a response.

"Why do some idiots like to brag that their this and that, and they have this and that?"

Does this really make sense to you? If so then I fear that your mind much like your questions are hopelessly muddled.

Once again I will do you the favor of properly wording your question.

"Why do some individuals like to brag about their status and the material items that they have?"

See, clean, clear, polite and most importantly to the point. None of the belly-aching and sarcasm which you so often present.

The stereotyping of anti illegals,on this forum had been that only those who are poor white trash,trailer trash,rednecks,hillbilly's and the un -under educated could possible oppose illegal immigration.First of all those people you malign are not trash,they are simply Americans that like many of their fellow Americans having difficulty in making enough income,either because of the economy, out sourcing or downsizing businesses..
They and the so called
rednecks and hillbilly's are the salt of the earth,hard working and patriotic Americans.
I speak of my self and others that are anti illegal that have achieved our American dream to show that you are stereotyping with your generalizations of anti illegals..
People from all sectors of American life oppose the illegal invasion of our country.It is not just the people you love to call disrespectful names.We are all Americans with but one goal,and that is to secure the borders and to put an end to the incessant flow of illegals into this country.
My comments about myself were to combat the pros comments never to brag or say self serving things about my self.Why does the truth offend you Wilbur.Am I, like you, supposed to pretend to be someone or somebody I'm not ?
If I did inadvertently offend any one (except Wilbur,don't ever E-mail me again)please E-mail me and I will address that issue with you.

Nancy (she said )--" had tea and crumpets with the Queen yesterday.... "

I am shocked that I wasn't invited to this. Phillip shall hear of my displeasure when I attend the Ascot, the Queen Charlotte Ball and the Dublin horse show.

I hope they ate illegal chickens and beef for lunch!

I don't know Questioner--are they really bragging?
