How do you view people who gloat about themselves?

So, this kind of people probably never get the best of love from anyone else, except those who are blind to see the snide remarks that they throw at others, or somehow they're just too passive to take a stance. But how do you feel about them? Someone claims them to be very good at a particular task, or that they know a lot about it, claim that's the most difficult thing ever and it takes someone like -them- to get the job done. What do you do/say? Ignore them? Tell them to just stop gloating either they're right or wrong? Pat them in the back regardlessly?

Do you mean people who brag about each of their qualities? Well if i am not in close contact with them everyday i can get along with them but if I see them too much and they are constantly bragging about themselves, i reach the point where i can't stand them anymore or i hate them and so i tend to avoid them.

Thanks for the reply. And yes, pretty much that. The sort that tries to make himself (or the very closest friends) seem like the hottest thing around and the only ones with inteligence and capabilities to do certain things, making everyone else sound sub-par at best. Personally I try to avoid these people but sometimes it's just impossible. Then it just becomes an attempt at ignoring them before at some point exploding on their face.

I guess you have my same point of view about this people, if you see them everyday it's quite impossible to get along but if you see them twice a month they are not that bad. The worst thing is when one of your friends changes into such person.
