I'm sorry but this sort of thing is so unbelievably, blatantly obvious when it happens that if you genuinely believe that somebody is "casually" saying these things, you're a social buffoon. One of my friends is notorious for this. She is currently traveling around in Europe...every so often there will be something like "laying on the beech in the south of france today! France Je t'aime!" This sort of thing does not come across as even remotely casual, because it isn't casual. Why did she feel the need to tell everyone that she was in "the south of france"? Why not just "on the beech"? Because that sort of thing is abnormal for her. It isn't something that she normally does. She's bragging, and everybody knows it. Now, I don't mean to pick on my friend (who may actually be fictional), but I just want the people that do this sort of thing to know that it is very, very transparent. You're making yourself look like a fool, and informing the world that the very things you are trying to purport as normal for you are, in fact, novel. That is why you're mentioning them.
