Nope, there is nobody like you! I could pick your posts out of several hundred, trust me. I know your tone and all the words that you use. I knew Runner wasn't you, but it is funny to me that he has patterned you in some regard.
Nope, I have lived all over the States and Europe and Asia and I have never heard bigging up and I am a student of words and vocabulary. You won't be able to bring up many words that I don't know or idiomatic expressions, as I have lived in New England, the Mid-Atlantic, the South and the deep South, Texas and Calf and spent time in Wash stare. And I have a lot of friends from the MidWest, so am familiar with those phrases also. Either that is your own term or a Canadian thing, but I literally hate that phrase although it is clear what it means since you write it many times a day on this forum. No doubt in my mind!
I didn't coin the term bigging up. It's been used on QOL for years, heck there is even a smiley named it, I used it yesterday. In regards to AL related things, I take it the way I said above, maybe I'm wrong, but you are free to ask about it on QOL if you want it cleared up, or even look it up for yourself.
No, I don't use it many times a day. I use it in regards to SweetCaroline posting glowing tweets, articles etc, or when she gushes overy AL. You hate that phrase because I write ithis many times a day? That's not true I use it that much, but I wonder do you hate the words spectacular, magnificent and magical since your friend uses those words? Doubt it.
