The difference between my commute and your commute *Sip

Helicopter rideshares to/from airports in NYC are actually surprisingly cost effective if you're short on time.

This is actually very true. I have done them before when it’s been faster than waiting for my guy to fly in

Sorry you sit in traffic and fly commercial

I think the bigger question is, what is it about P99 and this community, that brings in the people who need to show their wealth off?

Whether it's Snortles or this guy, they still pale in success when compared to something mundane like a mid tier Youtube streamer. I mean, the items you guys show off off for wealth are literally on par with shenanigans I see from mid level Youtubers. If you're going to boast about wealth, do so in a way that would impress this community.

Basic/boring old human psychology perfectly explains Lulz and some of the other braggarts here. As for cd288, I'm still not sure whether he is actually serious, or just doing his best Lulz impression [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

We can recognise the insecurity behind the boasting, insists Dr. Susan Whitbourne, Professor Emerita of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, by noticing four signs:

1. The braggart tries to make you feel insecure about yourself. In fact, they are probably projecting their insecurities onto others in order to be able to examine them.
2. The boaster needs to showcase his/her accomplishments. The sense of inferiority at the heart of constant recitation of their great lifestyle, elite education, or genius children’s achievements are attempts to convince themselves that they are ok.
3. The braggart does the “humblebrag” (as above) far too often. Again, look out for self-deprecatory statements that are really excuses to drop important names or identify high-status details (like the conspicuous late-model Mercedes in the background of the Facebook picture where the person in the foreground is getting you to notice his new t-shirt).
4. The show-off frequently complains that things aren’t good enough. Examples here include the person complaining about the work travel for the high-profile job, or the rather snobbish negative assessment of an expensive restaurant meal or a performance whose tickets cost a fortune. Complainer-braggarts may be proclaiming their high standards as a way of demonstrating that they are truly better than everyone else, but it is more than that. They are also trying to prove that they hold themselves to a more demanding set of self-assessment criteria (Whitbourne, 2015).

Sounds like he struck some insecurities.

You could have said "I'm poor and butthurt about your post" in less words.
