Keeping up with the Jones'

Why is it that some people feel like they have to one up others no matter what. Say for example you know a Jones that got a new 50" tv... wow, awesome, right? But the Smith's can't be happy for them... Smith has to go out and get a 52". Why?

So how about this... Jeff has been bragging about having 50 video games for his play station 3... 50 games... wow... pretty awesome! I personally think it's silly especially for an adult that could put the money from the games to pay bills, but we all have our hobbies and likes. Let's run a lil test here. Fred decides to tell Jeff he found an awesome deal for a play station 3 with 60 games so he bought it... now that's a great find. Jeff can't believe it and immediately wants to find an awesome deal too. He heads out of the office and not even 5 minutes later he calls Fred to find out where he found the deal... ebay of course. So Jeff plans to look into it when he returns to the office. But the crazy thing is that he called while he was up at the game shop to see what they have. So now Jeff is on a mission to purchase more games so that he isn't out done. He's obsessed. During this lil test we also find that Jeff has a secret bank account from his wife. A secret account... now that's trust... and then to use the secret account to buy video games... now that's just hilarious! What a loser this Jeff can be.

Keeping up with the Jones' is really important now isn't it?!
