    If I woo you it's one of three reasons..
    1) you're an asshat
    2) I love you
    3) the woo button is exactly where my thumb lands on my phone when I scroll... app basically you a casualty of placement. Maybe they should put the "like" there

    Is this still vague?

    #3.. Ive done that .. :/

    I was going to make a joke about the kangaroo and the woo button but then I thought you had a funnier one in your head so just pretend I said that.

    Kanga-woo?

    Clever.

    What is a humble brag?

    When you pretend to be modest about something you really want to brag about.

    This one's me

    Wrong again.

    I still don't understand... do you have an example?

    Example "I literally just got out of bed when I snapped that selfie and these dudes really want to creep on me? really dude, gheeze"

    No part of that is humble though?
    I have it worse I mumble brag we’re i try to brag but it’s just a lot of mumbling.

    Is that the same as "selfie brag" ? asking for a friend.

    Dude, you're killing me. Maybe not the best example but point being that she wants to appear humble (just got out of bed and should look likecrap yet looks hot enough to have dudes talk to her and is putting that out there, bragging)

    I think maybe I'm struggling with the literal nature of humble vs bragging. Or I totally understood what you meant from the beginning >:)

    I know it's the latter which I why I'm going over to kickyourass. :angry:

    Humble brags happen a lot on MFP, usually it's a man or woman that posts a selfie and complains about their body while others are looking at them saying you look fantastic then they continue about how they look horrible.

    Wouldn't that just be a difference of opinions?

    Usually, no, they are looking for an ego stroke but trying to pretend they aren't.

    But how do you confirm this?

    Just the way they present themselves. It's pretty obvious when a person is really looking for advice vice fishing for complements. Let's just say, you will know the difference when you see it.

    In any event, I do hope we see a Chit Chat thread entitled Vice Fishing in the very near future.

    I'm sure that would have a different flavor...fish?

    It comes down to judgement of intent but I feel it’s hard to truly judge someone’s intent behind a post. Sometimes someone who you consider extremely confident in fact has a low self esteem. The deeper issue is actually depressing if you stop and think about it. Why would someone need consistent approval from strangers anyways?!

    Just a thought.

    I'll check my diary, I'm sure I covered this with my therapist and...oh wait, TMI must talk to him next time about my over sharing! :blush::wink:

    You're deep

    It’s a gift like a double edged sword. My depth and empathetic nature has put me in such compromising situations. I *kitten* hate it.

    You are a good person and we are lucky to have people like you around.:smile:
