Couldn’t agree more. Now everyone thinks they’re the greatest when in reality Oldmanbeasley is the true GOAT.

Go to the beach in the middle of the day and you'll see it in full force. No less than 10 people will be there posing for shots to post on insta/snap.

Not everyone can be worldly and grounded like those of us who sat through several Mokeba courses.

I’m sort of the belief people are born to be prone to narcissism or not. But social media prods those prone to it, for sure.

More importantly, it makes people think they need to live a life like the fake life they see posted by their friends and family, Etc. Or that everyone is entitled to live like the Kardashians without earning it.

Are you referencing the join date or posts? B/c we're talking about an almost 19-year journey at this point


Yes, we are. You have made 391,616 posts over 6,820 days.

That is an average of 57 posts every day for close to 19 years.

That is not healthy, nor do we care that much what you have to say narcissist.

Do you think that I post (and have posted) for some sort of notoriety or self-respect or something?

I've been saying for years that human beings have not evolved enough to deal with this type of stuff. Studies have shown that human beings are horrible with statistics when it comes to bad events, so of course everyone wants to extrapolate 10,000 angry lesbians on Twitter to a larger population. The thing is, these nutters found each other, sometimes 10,000 angry lesbians are just that, 10,000 angry lesbians.

It's way beyond the surface level stuff, too.

We have barely evolved to create functional societies. That's still a major work in progress that results in huge crises and wars.

With how refined data collection/analysis has gotten, we're moving past a state of humanity, even. We are all going to be fully manipulated beings in short order, b/c we have no real defense to the large scale micro-manipulation going on behind the scenes.

I postulated on here a few years ago that technological data analysis will basically make social sciences in academia useless. These companies will have their analysis and samples refined enough to make traditional study of humans obsolete.

I can relate to this girl. I'm no narcissist at all. But I do wish My girlfriend of 11 years would fricking include me in a post every now and then.

Last week tailgating she Posted some pics "These are my people". The pics were of her and everyone at the tailgate except me.

That shite hurts man. I don't care how old you are. She's probably trying to hide me from Jody.
