re: Isn't an accusation of "bragging" just an admission of your inferiority?

This exactly proves my point. You're insinuating that this is a brag. In reality, someone insulted my child by saying he is nerdy and unpopular. I responded to that accusation with a fact that contradicts the accusation. It's a legitimate response to a provocation, not an unsolicited "brag." You only PERCEIVE this as a brag if you've never accomplished any similar popularity in life.

It's slightly above average at best - around 6" with decent girth. My wife calls it "perfect size." Much larger would be uncomfortable, much smaller would be disappointing. I'd take another inch if offered, though.

I'd say it's more of a coping mechanism on your part than a brag. You feel ashamed of your nerdy karate kid, so you soothe your feeling of ineptness as a father by saying "well at least his youtube is mediocre"

He doesn't get nearly as many views on youtube - around 1,000 at best. His big number views come from social media, peakiing around 16-17K.

He found a way out via a disability insurance scam.

You hit the nail on the head. I'm ashamed that my kid won a world championship in an organization with several hundred thousand members and thousands of schools - and that thousands and thousands of people follow his videos. Who wouldn't be ashamed of that?

And got those discs removed and inserted that lengthy metal plate in my neck so the last laugh would be on them. Sly one, I am.

What?

YouTube videos of dogs farting, zit popping, and fat kids dancing with light sabers get MILLIONS of views.

Sounds like your kid's in great company.

But you're just a plain ol' skank who doesn't realize your attempts at bragging actually make you look like the skank/loser you really are. We just pity you.

Honest question, would you feel super proud of your son if he had won a world championship in rhythmic gymnastics? Or maybe he was the best male flute player in the world.

Again, I hate to seem as though I'm making fun of a kid. Good for him. But the lengths at which you go to mention it is comical and obviously a way to feel better about yourself.

He can't practice the physically grueling profession of dentistry (or find any other sedentary job commensurate with his education level) yet can operate multiple high performance sports cars (at admittedly their high performance limits) and travel throughout the country with his kid all year to various karate tournaments.

We already know where he lives. Plenty of his posts suggest he shouldn't be on disability. Would be pretty easy to report the fraud.

No, I'm glad that I had the foresight and intelligence to insure the income that I worked 20 years to attain.
Do you have car insurance? If you do, please tell me you're not too stupid to spend an equal amount insuring your livelihood...you can't possibly be that ignorant.

Right, because insurance companies don't exhaust every option when investigating the crap out of cases before handing out millions of dollars, and they don't have private investigators follow you periodically. You are a sure bet for CEO since you're so much smarter than they are.
