Discussion Thread: Shameful Pride

What’s something about you that impresses your kids (or friends or family members) that isn’t actually something to be proud of? Tonight, we ate at a burger place that offered one pound patties. Eating one got your picture on the wall. Eating three earned a place a full-size poster. My daughters pointed out that I could easily be up there on the wall of shame. They were right, but I couldn’t let them know that. I limited myself to a mere one massive burger. What’s your shameful skill? Sound off in the comments.
