    Where is the line between confidence and conceit? Does it depend on the self confidence of others if someone is bragging or just confidently stating facts?

    If Santa "sees me while I'm sleeping, knows when I'm awake, knows if I've been bad or good," why do I need to write him a letter telling him what I want for Christmas?

    There’s nothing in there saying that he can read your mind. 🤷‍♂️

    I think it's a contextual thing. Confidence is about knowing what you can do, conceit is about making sure everyone else knows it.

    "Conceited people are often insecure and overcompensate by taking compliments as a given, when in reality, they crave the praise to feed their (low) self-esteem levels. Someone who is self-confident appreciates praise but is not desperate for it."

    I like how my question about immortality raised a "discussion" about the topic.

    Maybe it should be an underwear only day?

    Kidding.. It's already too cold here for that.

    Hopefully, that'll do it.

    @slimgirljo15 Have you noticed the sense of family that's grown UP in here. Chitchat and Fun Games. You're a great deal responsible for that because you've been building on this for years and years. It's human in here without busting chops and I appreciate it from the bottom of my lil ol' pea pickin' heart. The end. <3
    Hugs and kisses all around to everyone.
