What's up with all the trash talk?

Lizard Queen, oops, King,

I am an 18 year old highschool student in Norman Oklahoma. I do any and all kinds of automotive repairs and modifications in my garage for fun and extra money. I actually have quite a bit of business for a one person shop. Enough to be busy three weeks out of the month. I don't think I have to worry about you encouraging my business. I will do any mod that someone pays me to do on their car, but I choose not to do certain mods to my car for many reasons. I have cars that I have worked on beat me all the time and cars that I haven't beat me all the time. I also win against cars I have and haven't worked on. I think if there is any one quality that people should strive to have it is versatility. The ability to do many things and understand many things. I can completely understand wanting to win, and I can understand wanting to talk about winning. What I wanted to know from posting this is if anyone could understand being okay with losing and wanting to talk about losing as much as winning. Like I've said time and time again, losing and telling people about it shows character. So I just want to ask you guys who don't get that, did your parents hug your big brother more than you when you were little or something? Anyone who has taken any psychology classes (you would have had to actually gone to highschool) would know that a lot of people who cannot live without competing and winning have inferiority complexes. Not trying to say anything about any of you stangers, because you're my friends.
