My recent posting, "The Pose is Usually a Cover", noted that the truth about people is often the antithesis of their pose. They reveal who they are by the show they put on to hide it.
This jibes with an oldie-but-goodie posting, "Cringeworthy Displays of Status", where I noted that when people flaunt, they tend to reveal "not their awesomeness, but their deep-seated smallness and dysfunction."
