....being thrown at random on MN?
I see this in a lot of threads.
An OP comes on to ask for opinions or insights, and provides "relevant" information pertaining to his/her situation, perhaps adds one or two details which may be above the norm (whatever that it) and someone sneaks in.......oh so self righteously...."I wonder if this is a stealth boast". [Eye Roll]
If anyone needs opinions or insights, of course they will try to include as much helpful details as possible. If they don't, they are accused of lying, if they do, they are accused of boasting. If you do, you're damned. If you don't, you're damned.
There are over a million of us, MNers. Is it beyond the realm of possibility to imagine that some will be significantly well off than others, and that it (their lifestyles) will be reflected in their threads?
So, why accuse them of stealth boasting?
It makes me very very unreasonable!!!!
