My favourite form of oneupmanship is when I hear two old women trying to out-ill each other. It usually goes something like this:
Old woman 1:
I think I'm getting a cold
Old woman 2:
I thought I had a cold, but it was the flu
Old Woman 1:
I had the flu. I was in bed for a fortnight.
Old woman 2:
I had to go into hospital with my flu
Old woman 1:
Mine was so bad they rushed me to Accident and Emergency.
Old woman 2:
The doctorss were worried my flu would lead to something worse
Old woman 1:
Mine did lead to something worse. I couldn't eat nor sleep for a month
And it always ends with the classic:
Old woman 2:
My docotor says I should be dead. He says he doesn't know how I'm still alive.
