Bragalaxin:
1) The art of boasting recent experiences, happenings, or personal dilemmas via social networking mediums. Bragalixin can be used to flaunt oneself in an indirect and subtle manner.
2) The art exhibiting how cool or significant you are while seeking external validation though feigned nonchalance. It is a skillful way of saying something very douchy while maintaining a hint of innocence.
Examples:
Damn I hated the traffic this morning. Had to sit on Peachtree St. with my foot on the clutch the entire time. At least I worked out my left calf. The new Carrera has a heavy clutch.
Love flying business class international. It's the only way to fly if I have to fly commercial.
The meal at French Laundry was absolutely exquisite but will never compete with my mom's mac & cheese.
Some bragalaxirs like to intentionally leave ambiguouty in their posts. This is merely bait for their friends to comment asking questions to clarify...
Example:
Forgive me if I plan on unwinding a little tonight: Monday I met my billable hours requirement for the year, Tuesday Kasim was elected, (Wednesday and Thursday craziness I can't talk about publicly), today a hearing in Superior Court and filed two motions for summary judgment that have consumed my life for more than a month. Someone pass the bourbon...
this begs the question "What kind of craziness can you not talk about?"
to which the bragalaxer would reply...
"Went to Tongue & Groove Wednesday night and was invited into the VIP section to chill with Jermaine Dupre and Usher. Those guy's know how to throw down."
