Passive Bragging

When an individual pretends not to be arrogant and pretentious by disagreeing with compliments they are given but following it up with a form of brag. Pulling this off ensures the person gets an ego boost while not appearing to be cocky.

James pulled a classic passive bragging by pretending his short code wasn't a big deal, but followed it up by stating that it's better than most others around.

name bragging

Someone who cannot stop themselves from bragging about the name brand items they own. Usually bought for them, and generally purchased by people that have no responsibilities, or live at home with their parents or grandparents.

Federico had a nasty habit of name bragging on his social media pages, even though the name brands he buys were insignificant since he still lived with his abuela.

Brogging

The highly (un)interesting act of bragging about oneself while blogging. Usually done by narcissistic pissholes whose blogs never ever get read anyways.

Dude, I wanna burn and roast these mofos who are brogging all the time. Like who cares - the very fact that they have to spend their time typing out how cool they are shows how much of a negative social life they have!

poor bragging

Complaining (bragging) that you are "poor" when, by the definition of poor / poverty, you aren't remotely poor. Complaining that you can't afford something you want, which, in your mind, makes you poor.

I can't afford tickets to Beyonce's concert because I'm soooooo poor! - Tweeted from my iPhone 6s. # poor bragging
