I will be pruning my friends list tomorrow. Don't worry, if you still have me friended you will not be dismissed from my quest. There are those who have left my quest and those are the ones to be pruned. No hard feelings, just harsh reality.
I have Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Yep, I diagnosed myself with NPD.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD)
An all-pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behaviour), need for admiration or adulation and lack of empathy, usually beginning by early adulthood and present in various contexts. Five (or more) of the following criteria must be met:
1. Feels grandiose and self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents to the point of lying, demands to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
I've been told that I'm the key to my family's happiness. I don't know, how important would that make you feel if you've been told that your entire life? Personally, I'd be a big headed, bombastic pig.
2. Is obsessed with fantasies of unlimited success, fame, fearsome power or omnipotence, unequalled brilliance (the cerebral narcissist), bodily beauty or sexual performance (the somatic narcissist), or ideal, everlasting, all-conquering love or passion
No one can stop me from achieving my goal of world domination. No comment about my somatic half.
3. Firmly convinced that he or she is unique and, being special, can only be understood by, should only be treated by, or associate with, other special or unique, or high-status people (or institutions)
I have been known to say that I use conversationto keep unworthy people away from me to winnow the chaff away. Only people who understand that can understand who I am. They must be talended people to do that.
4. Requires excessive admiration, adulation, attention and affirmation -or, failing that, wishes to be feared and to be notorious (narcissistic supply).
I am always curious to know what people think of me. In fact, I would go so far as to say I am obsessed with what people think of me. I work hard to make people think well of me.
5. Feels entitled. Expects unreasonable or special and favourable priority treatment. Demands automatic and full compliance with his or her expectations
My parents raised me as alazy, spoiled brat a precious son in an Asian family. I never had to wash dishes, mow the lawn, or do my own laundry. If I asked for something, I got it. I (unreasonably) expect the same out of my friends. Because I'm not like everyone else. I'm special. And I know it. You know it. If you don't, I'll let you know it.
6. Is "interpersonally exploitative", i.e., uses others to achieve his or her own ends
I am the master pianist, and everyone is a merely a key or pedal to the song of my life.
7. Devoid of empathy. Is unable or unwilling to identify with or acknowledge the feelings and needs of others
Often, I try to help people by hurting them. That's because their pain isn't my pain.
(I know many people are are thinking, that is so D2. And they'd be right.)
8. Constantly envious of others or believes that they feel the same about him or her
I only envy people who are better than me. Since I'm the best, everyone else envies me.
9. Arrogant, haughty behaviours or attitudes coupled with rage when frustrated, contradicted, or confronted.
Nine for nine. I'm a perfect batter, an arrogant, haughty pomp. You are wrong, and I am right. That will never change, no matter how much you try to frustrate me with your illogical arguments. My logic always reigns supreme.
Thanks,nysidra, you're the second best!
Went shopping today with mom
Got a couple of new pairs of jeans. I'm a 32X32 now, except it's kind of hard to shop for me because I prefer wearing slim fit. What's up with this relaxed fit craze? Stupid obesity problem. Sigh, the inconveniences of being a tall and thin Asian...
I also got a rainbow of dress shirts. I figure if I'm going to be a teacher, I might as well get me some solid colored dress shirts. I gained a dark red, dark blue, orange, green, and pink dress shirt. Yes, pink, the color of confidence.
Also, you know you're a spoiled brat when your mom buys it all for you. It's nice to be the one and only golden son in an Asian family.
Convos of the Day
Mom: So, why can't you graduate in four years again?
D2: We've gone over this several times, mom. It's better for me to stay an extra year to get some political science and education classes in.
Mom: But normal people graduate in four years.
D2: Well, I'd want to graduate in four years, too. But it's just better for me to stay an extra year so I don't push myself too hard too quickly.
Mom: Only stupid people graduate in five years.
D2: Okay, so I'm a stupid, stupid boy.
Mom: Don't say that! I'm just saying you are the only valedictorian from Southside to take more than four years to graduate.
D2: There's a first time for everything.
D2: Do you guys have a cutting board?
Mike: No.
D2: A peeler?
Mike: No.
D2: Clean dishes?
Mike: No.
Andy: So, we got everything to make the shepherd pot pie, right?
D2: Yeah, we got all the ingredients. Wait, we need some sort of casserole dish. Mike?
Mike: What casserole dish?
D2: That's why our high school circle is so tight. We are six very distinct personalities.
Mike: Yep, you always need a white mage to save everyone.
D2: You need a thief to steal things.
Mike: A fighter to be the tank.
D2: A cold, calculating black mage.
Mike: A monk to say random things.
D2: And a red mage who knows everything.
Mike: I am a very picky eater.
D2: What can you eat?
Mike: Hamburgers, tacos, pizza, pasta, chicken, mashed potatoes. Some stuff is edible.
D2: That's all you can eat?
Mike: Once, my parents tried to make me eat a banana.
D2: Okay...
Mike: I took two bites before I threw it back up.

Sports Report
Everyone needs to cheer for the Tulsa to beat Fresno State in the Liberty Bowl tomorrow! The game will be on during lunchtime on ESPN. Go Golden Hurricane! (Yes, the plural of Golden Hurricane is Golden Hurricane. Do not add the "s". And why Tulsa is known as the Golden Hurricane where there are no hurricanes is very confusing.)
Anime review
Elfen Lied is an awesome thirteen episode series. A bit violent, but the story really comes together at the end.

Date: 2005-12-31 03:53 am (UTC)They don't really fit you, but they're nice to wear? That's a funny sounding sentence, sir.
And I've never heard of Fuze until now. I have learned something new today.

Also, to chip in on the sleeping naked thing: I don't sleep naked. I wear a T-shirt, because sometimes my shoulders peek above the covers and that gets awfully chilly.
Also, I once co-organised the Dutch Scholastic Programming Contest (a qualifier for the ACM programming contests). I think it was in '92. Good fun.

Date: 2006-01-01 07:16 pm (UTC)By the mid 80's, every Dutch university had a good connection to the internet. Sure, the WWW hadn't been invented yet, but that doesn't mean things like email and USENET didn't exist before then.
The pre-internet days were way before my time.
