The "I'm Better Than You" post


In honor of the craziness that hits the interwebz like a wildfire every full moon, a friend of mine on my mommy board created a tongue-in-cheek thread called the "I'm Better Than You" thread.

Shall we play and feel sanctimonious in doing so?

I'll start.

I'm better than you because my preemie is meeting all her milestones with her chronological age rather than her adjusted age...and meeting them early in some cases!

I'm better than you because I have long eyelashes that everyone thinks are the result of mascara yet I haven't worn eye makeup since dance competitions more than 10 years ago...and I passed them along to my daughter.

I'm better than you because I've partied with royalty.

I'm better than you because I'm in the plotting stages of a new book, so the possibilities are endless.

Anyone else?

(Disclaimer: Full credit is given to Daniel Tosh for the original idea. Yes, Tiffany stole it from him. And then I stole it from her.)

    I'm better than you because I just am. And there's no argument against that.

  8. This is too fun not to participate!

    I'm better than you cause I look freakin' awesome in my new skinny jeans!

    I'm better than you cause I went to Disney World this past April and I'm going again in December and then again in March!

    I'm better than you cause I weigh less than I did before I had both babies- only a few pounds heavier than I was in high school 15 years ago.

    That felt really nice! Sometimes it's hard to be so modest all the time!!!

  9. How sad is it that my initial reaction was "Yep, you're better than me." LOL

    Let's see... I'm better than you because I still have the hots for my husband.

    I'm better than you because a random acquaintance asked me if I lost weight this morning, and I could honestly say I had.

    I'm better than you because my daughter got a 30 on her ACT - and I homeschool, so that's my win, too.

    It does feel nice to say good things about myself for a change. I need to do it more often. Thanks. =o)
