Are you a self-centred, selfish ass?

Post Reply New Topic

Not all the time but I can be, usually when people annoy me.

I've heard Jack- a few times.

Yes, I have the appearance of self centeredness, and the term has been applied. I'm not, though, as I'll do more and bend over backwards for folks in many ways.

That depends on who you ask.

If you ask *me*, I'm a sweet, kind, giving, considerate person with a quirky sense of humor and an original outlook on life!

If you ask my *boyfriend*, on the other hand . . . well, you might get different answers depending on when you ask.

I am, but only in the same way all humans are. Unfortunately, the general population would find it unpalatable to screen prospective parents for ignorance and low intelligence.

I feel that the general population are far more self-centered, selfish asses than I am. I know that people sometimes think it of me, but if that were the case, why would I be constantly trying to please everyone else at the expense of my own mental health?

Basically, people are labeled as self-centered and selfish if they don't immediately recognize and meet the self-centered selfish needs and wants of other people. The people doing the labeling believe that their own self-centered selfish needs and wants are totally apparent to everyone, and anyone who doesn't meet those needs and wants is choosing not to do so and therefore is extremely self-centered and selfish. Not once do they stop to consider whether expecting others to constantly recognize and meet their needs or wants is possibly self-centered and selfish.

Self centered, yes. That's what Autism is.

Selfish? No. They're not the same thing at all.

I don't think I am but Edward Edwardian is.

Not on purpose.

yes, I guess I am.

Only my parents and one brother care about me so as I see it they are the only ones I will not hurt or screw over. When I worked at a resteraunt I had senority over most people when it came to vaction time having 9 years has it's advantages. Since we were a union job I could bump people and take their vaction spot one waitress who use to mock the way I talk had a vaction set up on the board but I noticed the Sci-fi channel had a Logan's Run TV series marathon on and I really wanted to get it all on video tape so I bumped her. She missed her best friend's wedding but hey I really enjoyed having the entire series of Logan's Run on video tape. I told her odds are her friend will get married two or three more times in her lifetime.

I did the samething to a bus boy he missed someone's birth day so I could watch Robotech: Mospedia marathon I luvs me some invid. I had the whole thing on video back then but they did not need to know that.
