Complainer's Paradox

While something may be terribly annoying, listening to someone complaining about that thing is always worse.

Alternatively: The only thing more annoying than (x) is someone who can't stop complaining about (x).
Andy: I hate this snow! I'd rather live in Iraq than in this terrible weather!
Bill: Shut up.
Andy: Why? You hate snow as much as I do!
Bill: Yeah, but listening to you whine is worse. Complainer's Paradox.
Andy: Oh, I'm sorry.

Brag Complainer

Indirectly bragging about something via a complaint. The complaint usually is not genuine and is not where they want your attention drawn. The complaint is only used as a means to be able to talk about the thing in which they are bragging about, but without flat out bragging. Brag complainers don't know they have the affliction but are in desperate need of attention and this is one of the ways in which they know how to get it. Very popular on Facebook.
Example: "Ugh, I cannot believe I had to pay over $500 for service on my MERCEDES - BENZ."

A non brag complainer would have left out the make of the vehicle.
