Heh, since you split it into a new topic:
We seem like a bunch of paranoid and narcissistic bastards. Watch out for my obsessiveness - compulsiveness whatever it means.

It's no secret that i'm pretty narcissistic. The beauty of it is, I don't mind at all.
I think the paranoia comes from recognising that alot of people dont like that.

lol, yea.... I don't think I'm a narcissist. Just realistic. I know I'm better than most people. And most people probably realize that I know this. So I have to be careful because of their jealousy, resulting in 'paranoia'. But is it paranoia if they're really out to get me? Or something.
Obsessive-compulsive means that you can get wound up into something pretty obsessively. For instance, over-optimizing code can be considered obsessive-compulsive behavior. Some extreme examples include people that have to have the fringe of a rug perfectly facing outward... any deviance from that makes them fret and try to fix it. The same OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) can be applied to a near infinite number of behaviors.

Erh... that I pretend not to know something doesn't mean I don't know it actually. Nevermind, my bad to mock it. I see no evil in the stuff I do, since I do not set higher standards for other people than for myself (comes from 95% lawful behavior, to use BG terms  ) and I do not tend to lower production because of quality (unless the quality is critical factor blah blah blah). Nope. I approximate rather to find an optimum. I don't see how it can be any better, as principle.
And I definitely second to the thing about other's jealousy. Hey, ain't the mages (smart guys) the most paranoid sort of people in fantasy worlds?  Call it "professional deformation".

Sound familiar? hehehehehe  No but seriously, I agree. It's hard not to think of yourself as awesome when so many retards walk the earth. Besides, I find it a healthier attitude to life in general than having low self esteem. Because that seriously won't get you anywhere (well, maybe a cul-de-sac job and an abusive relationship, or a drinking/drug problem).
Arathorn is the only normal human being here? Dang. We're a sicker bunch than I thought.  It's nice to see Gfree's Half-Life and Baldur's Gate obsessions shining through in his chart.
I'm apparently uninterested in social contact, which is only partially true. I tend to be very jovial around my friends, but I can be a complete dick towards strangers. As for the paranoia...see, I dunno, it's probably true but...I KNOW people are doing stuff I don't want to know about behind my back - that's human nature. They may not be out to actively hurt me in any way, but it happens. All the time, to a lesser or greater extent. I don't give a fuck when it's my co-workers talking behind my back at the watercooler, but I do when it comes to family, friends and lovers. And when I know it happens I want to uncover it. And then I start fretting over possible scenarios.  And when I do find out I'm not a happy camper, by any means.
So...I sometimes wish I could just let go the whole plotting out scenarios. Because that would spare me a lot of problems. I'm jealous of the people who're dumb enough to think their loved ones don't ever deceive them in some way or another, sometimes. But then again I'm not.
I probably just went and proved a point about my mental state there.

I am goddamn considering all possible scenarios and estimate the probability of each and every one an all the time. The more I know about the persons and their lives, the more accurate I can be. But when I do not know enough... I can just come to very bizarre but possible ideas that those 'normal' people would never think of.  But then again, I take advantage of knowing possibilities whenever I have weapon to spin the chain of events so that it unfurls in the way that's be best for me.  And even then when non-interfering would probably have brought me to the same result. I guess that justifies the result pointing at me like at a paranoid bastard. That I am, I won't deny.
From pure malevolence, I provoke them and then confront, because they 'dared to'. That's why most of people who know me are unlikely to say anything on my count while we're in same building. I *know* it happens in their homes! They need an outlet. It's like urge for masturbation.  But at least it is not happening behind my back - Hey, I have eyes there, I can't let them be constantly hurt!
Fuck me, I AM a freakin` deviant. Not that I dislike it.

Don't see how i fit in the schizotypal picture, maybe it's me talking and people having trouble to understand my train of thoughts. I'm just too smart. Dunno why i score so low on narcissism then.
Anyway: i'm normal. You bunch of freaks!

Jesus...at first I thought that most people would come out like me, Satis, Derf and Gfree. But it turns out J and Arathorn both came out completely normal.  Would there be a correlation between them posting less here than us deviants?
Which reminds me J, stop building your house and waste more time on here!

About entering and extending conflicts or sharp discussions either. Probably afraid of global war and not begging deities to spread it over the world...
What scale did derf wtf use.

My guess is that derf gave "low" one point, "moderate" two and "high" three.
I don't want to push for global war. I'm content with watching how Cold War II unfolds at the moment.
