Narcissism:
RCD-JB-GG- DL Experts Described Link:
"The narcissist likes to talk about himself and only about himself."
"The narcissist may possess a fabulous sense of humor, scathing and cynical. But he never appreciates it when this weapon is directed at him."
"These-the lack of empathy, the aloofness, the disdain and sense of entitlement, the restricted application of his sense of humor, the unequal treatment and paranoia-make the narcissist a social misfit."
"The narcissist brags. His speech is peppered with I-My-Myself-Mine."
"He describes himself as intelligent, or rich, or modest, or intuitive, or creative-but always excessively so."
"His biography sounds implausibly rich and complex. He always name drops."
"A narcissist will never admit to ignorance in any field."
Now doesn't this sound just like some of those braggarts we all know so well. Mr. Spell-check (JB) fits well but Mr. $150 bottle of wine (RCD) fits pefectly and of course dear old GG loves to see the I-me-mine used, especially by him. Aaah Me, they never seem to tire of slapping themselves on the back with praise and worship. Self-love, what it must be to be totally in love with oneself.
