    Bragplain

    炫耀牢骚

    Brag是“吹牛”,plain是“普通的”,bragplain是什么意思呢?请看对话:

    A: Kids are really naughty. My two-year-old has got tired of her dad asking her to "give me five" and would give him her foot instead.

    B: Well, they certainly are. By the way, I don't think iPhone 6 is that much better than previous versions. I should have kept my old one and saved one grand.

    A: Quit bragplaining. I know you're just showing off.

    B: If you can keep bragplaining about your cute kid, why can't I bragplain a bit about my new gizmo?

    Note: Bragplaining is used when you complain about something for the sole purpose of bringing it up in conversation to brag about it. Brag, complaining, so comes bragplaining.
