alt Hacker NewsOrdinarily, this is where I'd leave it (a real discussion is impossible if one side thinks the other isn't being honest), but I'm really curious...
You've used the term "humble bragging" twice now. What in my statements do you think counts as a brag? I was just saying what my personal experience is, and I can't think of what I've said that would be anything to brag about, humble or otherwise. My experience is just my experience, not some kind of superior one.
I think asking another person or a friend who they voted for is not really "astonishing". It felt like you were using that to sort of show off your position as someone who both would never do that and hangs out with people who don't do that. It's like the position established in the article was "obvious" because you're "superior". That was the slight tone I was sensing.
