If you’re extremely proud of an accomplishment, by all means, post about it on social media and inform your friends so they can celebrate you. But there is a time and a place for bragging, and if you feel the impulse to boast about how rarely you change your child’s diaper, you might want to think long and hard before sharing that information.
Redditors have recently been calling out the most ridiculous and obnoxious things people brag about, so we’ve gathered some of their thoughts below. We’ll warn you right now that you might find this list infuriating, so good luck scrolling through and be sure to upvote the things that really aren’t the flexes people think they are!

Being willfully unvaccinated because they “do their own research” and “don’t follow the sheep.” Yeah, congrats for being gullible and easily manipulated by online b******t.

I can't stand it when people brag about how they never take sick days and just "man up" and work through it. Aye, cheers, mate, for passing your s**t around the office.

My brother and his girlfriend constantly tell me I drive like a grandma. Then they tell me how they regularly go way over the speed limit, take mountain pass turns super fast, and punch it through yellow lights. Idk when it became cool to drive like an a*****e

Guys who say things like “I have never hit a woman” like they’re heroes. It’s basic human decency why would you have pride in that

Spending tens and thousands of dollars on designer clothes. Most people who show off designer aren’t as rich as they look they just throw their whole paycheck on clothes in reality they’re just showing off how bad they are with money

Never having read a book / not having read a book since they left school.
That's just **not** an achievement - at all. It's not hard to do - and there is no good in not doing it. I wouldn't say people who read are necessarily more educated, but apart from the chance to educate you it is simply another hobby. I've never seen anyone brag "Oh I haven't visited a theater since school" or "I haven't done archery since we had it in school!". It's just nothing to brag about.

Guys who brag about being “built different”. Sure dude. You have a beard, a “full sleeve” tattoo, and a pickup truck. You’re **so** different.

Getting away with a crime.
There was a mass murder in the Chicago suburbs that went unsolved for 9 years, until one of the two perps told a new girlfriend about it and turned them in.

Anyone who brags about something they didn’t earn.
- nice home but live with parents. Don’t brag. You did nothing to own / deserve it.
- high paying job in family business. Don’t brag. You did nothing to own / deserve it.
- “things” like clothing, jewelry, watches, cars etc that were gifted by parents / family. Don’t brag. You did nothing to own / deserve.

Too many coddled kids who piggyback their parents hard work via deflected ownership.
Winning the lucky sperm lottery is no reason to brag.
