They will follow you on leaderboards for the sole purpose of getting a score higher than yours so they can brag about it...causing you to either take time out of your day to go "fix it", or let them gloat forever.

Get the Score mug.Very Tired or sleepy. The action footballers make when they score headers. The nod down to head the ball into the net. Similar to nodding asleep on a train.
