That alludes to another part of the problem with complaining about bragging.
Sometimes, a person is simply stating a fact about something they have/do/whetever. Someone without immediately views it as bragging.
Man tells his tailor he has 10" on the flop. Tailor says he's bragging. Man says he's not. He just wants to make sure the trousers have the required room...
Fine line sometimes.
For the record, I stopped using that tailor anyway.
