You ever had a conversation with someone about something as mundane as talking about cheese.

And then came to realize it was a one upping competition instead of a conversation when they said “how about that! 😌”

I was just discussing cheese. not telling you which one is better and which one you should be eating and judging you for it.

I’m tired of the one upping. It makes everything feel like a subtle competition instead of a connection.

You found competition even in a conversation about cheese?

I'd carry on. Make them think I'm really into cheese before I leave the conversation with the flattest response. It's little joys like this that prevent me from doing worse things.

Had a neighbor a long time ago. She seemed to do this every time she came over to visit. I would start to get a headache from it.

I just assume people are trying to impress me bc they think I'm insightful and sexy.

@Selah I assume people just like irritating me. And it’s working, but not in the way they think. 🙄

@Selah what’s your sign

Cheese is a very important conversation
In France we have over 365 different cheeses

@Pressure that's my specialty (:
I can't believe there are people out there that only know chesse as the wrapped kraft slices.

@SooperSarah and this is kinda of how this conversation that I posted about got started 😂

@Pressure so you've met another of my personalities. Congrats!

I consider myself lucky to have grown up with real cheese. I had no idea I was taking that entire cheese room at the grocery store for granted. My goal is education though. No one upping here!

If you haven't had a heart to heart with someone about cheese, have you even lived?

@RosaMarie most people don’t unfortunately 😔

Yeah I don't *hate* one-uppers but they can really irritate me at times. I remember a co-worker would would do that at every fucking time.

"That's okay I ate X..." oh come on.

Lmao. I'm not sure how you do but you seem to find all the bisches that want to compete with you about anything. Could it be, all they compete you about is your attention coz thet find you hot? 👀

Pressure

@SUPERVlXEN I think it’s about them being used to being challenged about everything even when it comes to cheese 😂.

Can we just have a normal conversation

SUPERVlXEN · F

@Pressure
Pfft. They want your attention. What do you want to converse on? 😏
