I am a Marine. We are pretty good at it. However, We are also proud of what we did. We wear the gear and engage in convo. Same as Police and Fireman. I guess if you did a job where you did something that is unique. We get to humble brag.
I'm friends with a girl on Facebook who has a husband stationed within the lower 48 and has yet to leave the states. Reading her posts, you'd think he drove to Afghanistan and made it home in time for supper.

How about the folks who go to exotic places for meetings of their multi-level marketing companies and text you photos with them holding signs that say "You should be here." Humble-brag seems to be built into their business model.
I'm friends with a bunch of engineers, so it may just be that I am around it a lot and usually one of the odd ones out. But Engineers, recent grads/young professionals, love to bring their verbiage and things they learned into normal daily conversations. Then once another engineer acknowledges that he/she knows what they are talking about it, they always have to throw in like 3 or 4 more back and forths about whatever it is they may be talking about it. Then go back to the conversation as if nothing happened.

The first rule of crossfit is you must always talk about crossfit.
I can imagine the stress that buying a 6-pack at country club prices can cause.
People professing their faith in Christ on Facebook ranks up there.
