Do you like to brag about stuff you have?

ManOfDisguise

Like when you buy something new(peripheral or something) or you just own something really cool do you brag to your friends about it and tell em how cool it is or not? I personally dont brag at all I actually dont really even tell anyone usually that I got something new I dunno I just dont like bragging because some people might not like you for it or say shit like daaamn you rich even though im not ya know

I like to say "Look at this thing I got!" but I don't necessarily show it off in the sense of "The thing I got is way better than the things you have."

I wouldn't call it bragging, just announcing something new I've gotten.

I don't like to brag, but when I try to compare my system to someone else's it always sounds like it because they tend to have such underpowered and outdated laptops or desktops.

Something, something, something, famous quote, computer specs, and stuff...

If you need to brag about it, it isn't that cool.

Something that's truly cool does its own bragging ;)

I brag about how my PC, being a relatively cheap build compared to some of you on here, could eat any console alive. Especially to my guildmaster who perpetuates endless bullshit lies about PC, and the rest of the guild is like "dude, you are so wrong it's not even funny" but he will not hear it.

 

He thinks his HP laptop is about as good as computer performance gets *facepalm*

Sometimes, but it more of a 'look at all the time and effort I put into this' instead of a 'meehh i got this, look how good it is'

If it is something I am really proud about, I will mention it, but not rub it into someone's face. That's just a tit of a move.

Other than that I don't have shit and I'm a failure so problem solved xD

I don't have anything worth bragging about and even if I did, I wouldn't. It's just asking for trouble.

Not really. Nothing in life lasts forever, to put so much importance in ownership is pointless. I get excited when something new arrives, but that's the extent of it.

Bragging is advertising to thieves.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

There's no need to brag to the mates faces when all my PC box's/posters/techy stuff are in my room on display. (still bragging I guess, but at least I'm not bragging with my voice)

In a sarcastic way, yeah. If my friend bought a GTX 770 and I have GTX 970 and were playing the same game, and he complains about frame rate or stutter or something I'll probably say something along the lines of "ugh, its all about GTX 970 MAAAAN" poking fun at his hardware.

Or if he's using AMD I'll probably be like "Wow, that PhysX tho."
