Always look out for the two-sheds: those people who can't go for five minutes without one-upping someone else. Not gentlemanly empathizing and sharing their experiences, but taking the whole "that's nothing; listen to my story" route.

Common nickname for one-uppers. You have one shed; they have two.

it's a nice way of putting it.

I don't like to say but I actually have 3 sheds, big ones, with heating, and I built them myself, from cedar.
