can someone tell me what this is? this instinct to "one-up" posts?
"forget that, try this!"
"that's nothing, look at my favorite thing!"
this is rampant all the time in all posts no matter what they're about on this site and I do not understand it.
Root comments reminiscing about The Old Days also steal thunder from the topic and I don't understand why people do it.
start a post about Your Favorite Thing if you want to go on about it; please stop hijacking other threads because you wanna talk about Your Favorite Thing. let people talk about This Thing...
