What do you say when someone is showing off? Maybe theyre using social media, sending photos or talking about what they have or do. In this episode, Feifei and Roy talk about an interesting expression to describe that feeling for people who do that

Flexing is the most irritating thing in the world. Most people do that every time intentionally unfortunately and they think that is the basic thing that they should telling what they have in the life all the time they all do that using social.media taking some selfies or photos showing off what they wear where they travel or visit and so on and to me it's more unavoidable virus from this Corona virus, it's getting more and more worse day by day

The only things to flex these days in Italy? Our collections of tailored face masks: one for work, one for the evening and one for special occasions . Honestly speaking, the general economic crisis does not allow to flex so much nor only for now but also for the next months to come! Anyway, let's think positive. Take careeeeeeeeeeee.

Hello Feifei and Roy! Thanks for the explanation. Unfortunately, people flex a lot on social media nowdays. But they weren't created for this. The girl was to find new friends, to keep in touch with old friends. The project was perfect, but the real use of social media is not.

As I spotted the prepositions you use, we can flex/are flexing on something (= via/through something such as social media); or flex about something (=matter/topic); and flex for someone (= someone who sees what you are showing off such as people).

This program of The English We Speak is # 300, and for me it has been a amazing journey in all these programs. I look forward to the next 300 programs. I am a big fan of BBC Learning English and of BBC TV documentaries.

I think understanding the best way of flexing is watching prank about the gold digger pranks at youtube genarally a man who flexing his super expensive cars and try geting the attention of girls

Yes, I agree with you, Feifei and Roy. I reckon some/most people are flexing on social media, including me . I just want to show them that I've had a better camera phone

people flex a lot on on social media these days....not only they waste their own valuable time but make many develop a sense of inferiority.
