Was I just Bragalaxin?

A subtle way to bragalaxin is to put your comment in a form of a question. This is generally associated with comments about traveling. This suggests to your readers that you are merely asking for suggestions, but when in actuality, you are just announcing to world that you are going to a cool place and that they are not.

Examples:

* Any recommendations for Naples or the surrounding area? (the italian one - not florida or illinois)


* June fellowship itinerary set: Berlin, Lubeck, Ankara, Istanbul, Sofia, Brussels. Then a week to roam free in Europe. Any tips?

* Need hotel recs for Santa Cruz, Carmel, Monterrey, Big Sur and Santa Barbara?

* Anyone upstate today? I'm speaking at CCS Bard today at 1pm on the panel, "Unpacking the Exhibition Archive."

* Marrakesh or Lisbon for a late April weekend trip from Madrid?

Not all Bragalaxins? are about traveling. Important questions about life should be posted:

* Is there ever such a thing as too much rose champagne?
