This totally fits.

That is very insightful.

I am thinking CAPE, TIGHT UNDERWEAR, and MASK should be symptoms also.

I think I just describe myself at halloween when I was five.

Just remember almost everyone has some narcissistic traits. But it is more of all problem for some people. A disorder is from a long pattern of embracing these traits. It is a choice.

Here is a good site about narcissists

Hey Jew read below I found it on a different thread.

the question i wonder is, um, er, what are these otherwise good men like these 2 jokers going to do next in order to "preserve our freedoms"

Hi ya Aussie? How is my favorite Socialist? Where the heck have you been? You are the only one here with a sense of humor!

Have you been labeled as a Terrorist by Heil Bush and McManchurCain yet?

I am telling you people are looking out for someone. Perhaps I need to a start a thread about this in the LDG section. I think there is an attempt of a cover up.

You are funny ldsff.

I don't care that my post was deleted. I am sure it was a misunderstanding of my intent.

However on an educational note this is a prime example what associates will do with these types…….. excuses the behavior, which in turn usually worsens the behavior in the long run.

Forget about it. Move on.

misunderstanding intent or twisting intent happens alot in a setting like this

Lets be real....for some post there is no misunderstanding what the post is meant to say.

I am thinking along the same line as all of you are

You just haven't learned to love him yet. Give it time.

I like the song C'est Moi, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdrEmZ35fxc
now Sir Lancelot was truly a narcissist.

The lyrics:

LANCELOT:
Camelot! Camelot!
In far-off France I heard your call.
Camelot! Camelot!
And here am I to give my all.
I know in my soul what you expect of me,
And all that and more I shall be.

A knight of the Table Round should be invincible,
Suceed where a less fantastic man would fail.
Climb a wall no one else can climb,
Cleave a dragon in record time,
Swim a moat in a coat of heavy iron mail.
No matter the pain, he ought to be unwinceable,
Impossible deeds should be his daily fare.
But where in the world
Is there in the world
A man so *extraordinaire*?

C'est moi! C'est moi, I'm forced to admit.
'Tis I, I humbly reply.
That mortal who
These marvels can do,
C'est moi, c'est moi, 'tis I.
I've never lost
In battle or game;
I'm simply the best by far.
When swords are crossed
'Tis always the same:
One blow and au revoir!
C'est moi! C'est moi! So adm'rably fit!
A French Prometheus unbound.
And here I stand, with valour untold,
Exeption'ly brave, amazingly bold,
To serve at the Table Round!

The soul of a knight should be a thing remarkable,
His heart and his mind as pure as morning dew.
With a will and a self-restraint
That's the envy of ev'ry saint
He could easily work a miracle or two.
To love and desire he ought to be unsparkable,
The ways of the flesh should offer no allure.
But where in the world
Is there in the world
A man so untouched and pure?
(C'est moi!)

C'est moi! C'est moi, I blush to disclose.
I'm far too noble to lie.
That man in whom
These qualities bloom,
C'est moi, c'est moi, 'tis I.
I've never strayed
From all I believe;
I'm blessed with an iron will.
Had I been made
The partner of Eve,
We'd be in Eden still.
C'est moi! C'est moi! The angels have chose
To fight their battles below,
And here I stand, as pure as a pray'r,
Incredibly clean, with virtue to spare,
The godliest man I know!
C'est moi!

Fits some religious leaders, as well as someone who was primarily responsible for my upbringing.

A few other notes about narcissists, they:
*Lack self awareness
*Can be REALLY nice when it serves them - they’re not always mean. And some who only see their nice mask may believe them to be great.
*As parents, narcissists/BPD treat their kids very differently based on what their kids can do for their ego. If a child makes them feel good about themselves, then they/“golden children” are treated favorably. If a child causes them to feel bad about themselves - whether child speaks uncomfortable truths or parent is jealous of child - then they/child “scapegoats” are mistreated. On top of this the narcissistic leader/parent will get others to also shame & mistreat scapegoats. Very sad. But the good thing about being a scapegoat is they are able to SEE through the dysfunction so they can eventually heal. Whereas the others tend to remain blind to it.

Narcissistic/BPD families are considered dysfunctional as cults - adherence to leader, no talking of ugly truths etc. Similarly, truth-tellers in a cultish organization cause leaders to feel bad & so the truth tellers are punished.

Absolutely fits my upbringing. The three asterisked characteristics make me wonder if she knows my parents and siblings.

Some of the old ones are better than the new ones. This is better than getting people to imagine what a celebrity's genitalia looks like.

Btw, these traits are also closely related to the Qabal, satanic, lizard, serpent, draconian, and khazarian dna types.

Btw, what we see in USSA and the world is much akin to a "divorce". We are divorcing the crazy people who lack empathy, since the relationship has been constantly abusive.
