I cant wait to tell people in about 2 years time when TSF is a household name that ''I was there when these guys only had like 160k pageviews a month and only $500 in revenue''

I don't get this mentality. I heard a lot of this sort of speak when The Social Network came out about how so-and-so was an early adopter as if they somehow made history. I could understand if you submitted your startup or tipped off TSF to help them grow, otherwise you're just another consumer, but with an overinflated ego. I'd like to coin this behavior "Backseat Entrepreneurism".
I read your comment 4 times but i still dont understand its relevance.Bragging about being an early adopter is one of those ''Guy Things'', think ''My gun is bigger then yours''
And yet you can't wait to tell people in two years that you were one of the first 140,000 eyeballs to TSF. It's the same idea is it not?
