I just realized that after reading all of these things that I was happy for each person's achievement, and not the slightest bit jealous. I'm not sure why this is, but it's a good thing.
It is a good thing to belong to a community where similar sentiments can be expected. Now it's like peer pressure on me (and anyone else here) to become more awesome. And we all know how people can change because of the peer pressure.
(Somewhere else, there would be a peer pressure to start smoking or taking drugs, or just to not change.)
Indeed, even knowing that in general I'm not a very jealous person, I was surprised at my own reaction to this thread: I upvoted a far greater proportion of the comments here than I usually do. I guess I'm more compersive than I thought!
