"One of the main reasons we gossip or complain is to make ourselves look better by comparison....When I point out your faults, them I'm implying that I have no such faults so I'm better than you are. Complaining is bragging. And nobody likes a braggart. Here's another bit of sobering news: You wouldn't notice the faults in the other person if they were not also in you."
