#9 – Is that it?

Have you ever told a story to someone thinking that it is amazing, interesting or just to tell some new event and instead of excitement as a response you get the dreaded line, "is that it" and then the person follows this with their own story that they think is better then yours. I hate this, for some reason some people feel like stories are some type of competition and have to beet you story, and there is a big difference in just telling a similar story and trying to tell a better story. I don’t know why but some people just can’t listen to a story and say "wow that’s cool" but then again everyone probably does this every once in a while and I’m sure I have done this, so that is why it is not higher on the list.
