To find out more about how this conversation started in the first place, we reached out to Reddit user MTC4U, who posed the question, "What is a flex you're proud of but too embarrassed to show off?" MTC4U was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda and share what inspired him to start this thread.

"I smoked weed daily for like 8 years straight. It was something I wanted to quit because it was starting to affect my productivity, and I wanted to be sharp at my work (I work in the lab at my local hospital)," the OP shared. "I managed to quit a few times for a few weeks, but whenever I got bored or stressed, I just started to smoke it again."

30 People Share Flexes They’re Proud Of But Too Embarrassed To Show Off Between the pandemic and having a second kid, I gained a ton of weight in the last 5 years. A couple months ago I finally started getting semi-serious about losing weight. My goal was to hit 200 lbs by my birthday, down about 15-20 lbs from my max weight.

Yesterday was my birthday, and I weighed 198. I'm proud of the progress, but embarrassed to share because I am still very overweight.

"Last week, I was one year smoke free and counting! The problem was: nobody even knew I smoked weed! Not my friends nor my family," MTC4U continued. "So even though it was a personal flex to stay off the weed for a full year, I had nobody to share it with."

"So, on the morning of my sobriety anniversary, I looked in the mirror and I kind of nodded to myself and thought: '[heck] yeah I did it!' But then I also wondered if anyone else was proud of something but was unable to share it for some reason," he noted. "That’s why I asked the Redditors if they were willing to share their flexes, so they could get the recognition they deserved or just share their story for fun."

We were also curious if the OP had any more unique skills that he's proud of but doesn't necessarily share with everyone. "Well, when I was small kid, I was a fan of Michael Jackson and mind you, this was peak 80’s Michael Jackson (yes I am old now)," he shared with a smile.

"At a young age, I practiced his dance moves meticulously to a point that I could do pretty good impersonation when I was a teen. I’m still capable to bust some moves, and from time to time, I moonwalk through my hospital where I work wearing my lab coat," MTC4U revealed. "The linoleum hospital floor is exceptionally good for this!"

As far as what the OP thought of the replies to his post, he told Bored Panda he was "baffled by how many people were boasting about their genitals, mainly the male phallus!"

"But the real surprise was that people were willing to share their embarrassing achievement, collection or even body parts thinking that they were probably only a small few. But it turned out that there were many more with similar experiences or interests," MTC4U continued. "[It was nice to see] how well they could relate with each other, and it created sub threads where they were sharing stories and complementing each other."

"There was one post about a man whose wife was a neurosurgeon changing people lives for the better, but she didn’t want to get any special recognition for 'just doing her job.'"

"But personally, for me, the best ones were people fighting addiction, depression, and personal barriers," MTC4U added. "Overcoming obstacles and beating their inner demons to achieve something they always desired. It’s inspirational to see how many people are willing to change for the better once they get the proper motivation. Also, single parents taking care of their kids? Absolutely a flex! Huge props!"

Finally, MTC4U wanted to encourage others to share their unique flexes. "Please do! There are so many things people achieve in their lives, small, big not knowing the impact it might have on them or others, how embarrassing or insignificant it might be to them," they explained. "It could help others in a similar situation, help find someone to share the burden with or just get a well-deserved compliment. It’s amazing how much an up/down nod or a pat on the shoulder can do for someone!"

What is a flex you're proud of but too embarrassed to show it off?

My horrible flex is that I am really good at making “challenging” clients unnaturally happy. Like, to the point where they specifically ask for me to manage their projects. Which makes me a superstar to my bosses, but means I spend most of my days working with the challenging clients.

Years ago, in my workplace, during meetings, the boss would ask the team for volunteers to do particularly difficult, detailed, boring work ... the "dirty jobs" that nobody wanted, like taking care of a difficult client ... and I'd feel sorry for the poor guy because he'd be literally begging the team and nobody would volunteer. So I started volunteering, just out of pity. Pretty soon, I got a reputation for taking on jobs nobody wanted. That turned into a reputation for "taking on difficult jobs". Pretty soon, I was the office guinea pig, and I started getting the INTERESTING work. They'd come to me and say "We have this new thing, and nobody's ever tried it before. Can you just play with and come up with a procedure on how we might use it!" I used a cell-phone with a camera LONG before I ever saw it on the market. It was this gigantic, silly thing the size of a book with a really small black&white monitor that moved at about one frame a second!

I remember back in the late 80s/early 90s, there was a tv show on in the UK called You Bet! (I occasionally and randomly hum the theme tune to it for some reason). There would celebrities who each ‘sponsored’ some random person who would be able to do some mad weird thing, and the other celebrities would say if they agreed or not on whether they would be able to do it. Then the audience would vote and the celebrities would get points based on the percentage of the audience who said yes or no. Anyway, one episode, there was a guy who was able to guess what song was playing, from a completely random choice, based on how a candle reacted to the vibrations coming from a speaker next to it in a completely different room. And he got every single one! Mad!

I am in the small % of the world's population who is ambidexterous, the small % of the world's population who has limbal rings and back dimples and the very small % of the world's population who has 2 extra ribs. The only 1 left in the "only a small % of the world's population " category.

My weird flex isn't embarrassing, but one I prefer to keep a secret so as not to break my streak. I have an unbeatable tactic for winning Clue (the board game), and have only lost once since the age of 12 when someone took a lucky gamble only a few turns in. I love Clue, and I'm afraid people either wouldn't play with me or would start paying too much attention to my moves if I bragged about it.

My entire extended family is Catholic, and I'm an Atheist. My son is the one who grew up and became a minister (he's not Catholic, but still a Christian minister).

My other flex is that I too can pee like a racehorse in the morning that I KNOW a housemate who does the same can hear. (He gets up before me).

I used to play the violin, and I could play any tune I was familiar with without needing sheet music. I can also turn any drawing into a plushie despite having no formal training.

Dude, being a little proud of something goofy isn't narcissism. Put down the pop psych and go look at the fantastic weather we're having.

I'm not embarrassed about any flex I have. Trust me, it's taken a long time to get to this place mentally.

I can slow blink at my cats, and they will slow blink back. I instinctively also do this to toddlers and babies, but haven't had much success there.

I can pee like a camel. I can hold it forever, but when it finally does let go, I could be standing there for a loooooooong time. Literal minutes. I blow Austin Powers and Tom Hanks out of the water.
