- Me, ME, ME!!: Braggers and self-promoters. I do some promoting myself, when I post a column that I think far-flung FFFs might enjoy. But I’m not running an Amway operation, selling mood rings, gold or vitamin supplements, like some FFFs.
- Bold Liars: “I’m taking Janice to Paris for the weekend,” Jim writes. I know him. He’ll be diving in Dumpsters on Moravian Street for dinner.
- Collectors: Overly competitive, they promiscuously sign up thousands of FFFs. (The greater the number, the higher the PQ – Pathetic Quotient.)
- Self-Impressed: “I’m going to lunch with my favorite judge.” “I just got back from the Super Bowl.” “I went to the ballet.” Not a word about what happened, just “I went, I did.”
Afterthought:
I’m torn. Can’t decide whether I belong in the first category of the last one.
