We already have Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Ash Wednesday and now I’m adding Gloat Tuesday.
Gloat Tuesday is simply a day where everyone has a license to gloat freely. Forget about concealing your successes and excesses via the irritating confines of humble bragging and just gloat.
Gloating can
be about anything:
New dental implant? - gloat!
Off for a long weekend at Claridges? - gloat!
First 10k followers on Instagram - gloat!
Made a modest donation to a charity? - tell everyone and of course - gloat!
On Gloat Tuesday you can gloat away with impunity as you try to out-gloat everyone else.
Nothing to gloat about? - just gloat about that.

Have you instituted any penalties for gloating on the other days of the week? |
|
| |
No, but those could become something else to gloat about. |
|
| |
This is brilliant. Have a bun to gloat over. |
|
| |
Hmm. "Nothing to gloat about? - just gloat about that". This particular gloat proposal sounds as though it may be more appropriate for Self-pitying Thursday. |
|
| |
Gloat Tuesday is king of the week day. |

When I was at school (many years ago), we nicknamed a boy in our class as The Gloat. Even the teachers started calling him gloat. He's probably dead now..... having given up the gloat hahaha. |
|
| |
Can we gloat about how little we gloat? |
|
| |
That could be described as humble bragging which is definitely something to gloat about. |
|
| |
I hear you, and you should pray more. |
|
| |
I will gladly gloat tuesday, for a hamburger today. |
|
| |
Gules today, ta.
Lout dates gay.
Oy, glutes; tada!

Total usage dy (one for the calculus crowd).

It has the very sophisticated rhyme scheme ABACD. |
|
| |
That is left as an exercise for the reader; I'm busy gloating. |

Arrogantia, vitium pessimum,
Corde vano, humilitate vacuum.
Superbia tua, quam tenebrosa et alta,
Nubem caliginosam, solem celata. |
|
| |
Tu, qui te supra cunctos extollis,
Insolentia tua, te ipsum fallis.
Numquamne vidisti superbos cadere,
Ut stellae caelo lapsae despiciuntur? |
|
| |
Ne te immeritas laudes et vana gloriae,
Humilitas vera est, virtus notoriae.
Si mentem in humilitate fixeris,
Superbiae nexu, te liberabis. |
|
| |
Ardeat superbia flamma in corde tuo,
Sed si extingueris, lux veritatis in tuo.
Arrogantia, cur non te convertis ad humilitatem?
Tunc pax invenietur, vera laus erit tibi datum. |
|
| |
consilium istud iustum est sed vix ad hanc ideam idoneum |
|
| |
Also, I think "celata" (at the end of the first line) is wrong. |
|
| |
If this keeps up I’m going to be forced to introduce Tongue Lashing Thursday. |
|
| |
Lesbians already have Monday |
|
| |
I gloat freely & without guilt at all times. Coz I'm the best, see! |
