I don't have a problem when they bring it up either. It's when they dismiss my story to highlight theirs.

"Oh, you were in a car accident? That's NOTHING. I was in a REAL car accident where I nearly died."

"Your parents divorced? That's not even a real divorce. They just separated. My dad died. From the car accident."

"Oh, your house was on fire? You call that a fire? PATHETIC. My house was on fire after my mom drove her car into it, setting off a gas explosion, killing my father."
