one-lowmanship 

The reverse of one-upmanship, one-lowmanship is practice of successively outdoing a competitor by spending less, having less, or doing less. Originated on Offbeat Bride to describe the indie-er than thou, DIY-er than thou, lower-budget than thou attitude that nontraditional brides can sometimes slip into.
Then she said, "You call THAT a low budget wedding? My wedding budget was $15, and we managed to feed 115 guests." It was totally one-lowmanship.

Lomaine is an amazing friend who will always stand up for you no matter what. She will help you through tough or bad times and is a fantastic dancer, singer, actress, and can always get the boys, even if she thinks she can’t. Lomaine’s can get a bit depressed sometimes but they are probably the kindest, most understanding people you will ever meet. She is amazing.
Wow, Lomaine is awesome! I wish she was my friend..
