Do people who are a*rsholes know that they are a*rseholes?

Kimia

As per title. I know this girl and she's just horrible, she's a typical 'mean girl', talks nasty stuff about everyone but is a bit of a manipulator so funnily enough she has a few mates. I can't stand her but I have to put up with her at times because our families know each other.

Example: I got good enough marks in my degree and was delighted and when I told her she looked me up and down and said good for you, although I still have more letters after my name (she has a masters). I just thought Wow.

When she's being a bítch does she know it? Or is that normal to her?

Yes... yes we do.

People tell me, but I don't believe them.
Bunch of arseholes.

Part of being an arsehole is not knowing you are 1.

Fart

Opinions are like... bleh, cba.

After I die when people think of the times they had with me i think they'll say 'Ya know, he wasn't such a dickhead after all.' And then they'll think again and say 'Actually yes he was.'

let me tell you a story OP.

A scorpion was walking along the bank of a river, wondering how to get to the other side. Suddenly, he saw a fox. He asked the fox to take him on his back across the river.

The fox said, "No. If I do that, you'll sting me, and I'll drown."

The scorpion assured him, "If I do that, we'll both drown."

The fox thought about it and finally agreed. So the scorpion climbed up on his back, and the fox began to swim. But halfway across the river, the scorpion stung him.

As poison filled his veins, the fox turned to the scorpion and said, "Why did you do that? Now you'll drown, too."

"I couldn't help it," said the scorpion. "It's my nature."

There's the people who are dickheads and don't realise it and then there are those that know it and embrace it..
I'm no psychologist but I think the latter do it as a defense mechanism.. 'well if no one likes me, it's only because i was being an ass on purpose..

"Because you're an arsehole" said the scorpion.

My fathers pall had a saying years ago ..........

Its one thing to be an asshole and know it, but to be an fcuking asshole and not know it .......... OMG.

I'm sure there are those who are completely oblivious to themselves, like say for instance Mel Gibson. But i'd say the real as*holes know who they are, like Axl Rose.

Couldnt have said it better

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asshole

Asshole (or arsehole in British English and Australian English) is slang for the anus and is usually used as an insult. It is formed from arse, which according to the Oxford English Dictionary has been used since the 11th century to refer to the rump of an animal and since the 14th century to refer to a person's buttocks. The combined form arsehole is first attested from 1500 in its literal use to refer to the anus. The metaphorical use of the word to refer to the worst place in a region (e.g., "the arsehole of the world") is first attested in print in 1865; the use to refer to a contemptible person is first attested in 1933.[1] Its first appearance as an insult term in a newspaper indexed by Google News is in 1965.[2] But as with other vulgarities, these uses of the word may have been common in oral speech for some time before their first print appearances. By the 1970s, Hustler magazine featured people they did not like as "Asshole of the month."[3]

Well I was drivin' down I-95 the other night.
Somebody nearly cut me right off the road.
I decided it wasn't gonna do any good to get mad.
So I wrote a song about him instead.
It goes like this...

Were you born an asshole?
Or did you work at it your whole life?
Either way it worked out fine
'cause you're an asshole tonight.

Yes you're an A S S H O L E...
And don't you try to blame it on me.
You deserve all the credit.
You're an asshole tonight.

You were an asshole yesterday.
You're an asshole tonight.
And I've got a feelin'
you'll be an asshole the rest of your life.

And I was talkin' to your mother
just the other night.
I told her I thought you were an asshole.
She said, "Yes. I think you're right."

And all your friends are assholes
'cause you've known them your whole life.
And somebody told me
you've got an asshole for a wife.

Were you born an asshole?
Or did you work at it your whole life?
Either way it worked out fine
'cause you're an aaaass...hole tonight.

If you suspect that you might be one, especially in the workplace, there's a test you can take: the Asshole Rating Self-Exam (ARSE). About the test:

Bob Sutton and the mavens at Electric Pulp have created the ARSE (Asshole Rating Self Exam) to help people to determine if they are assholes. This is an offshoot from Bob’s book, The No Asshole Rule: Building a Civilized Workplace and Surviving One That Isn’t, which I reviewed at the end of October.
I’m sure that none of you need to take this test, but you might know someone who does. :-)

Assholes come from arseholes in the country, thats why country people smell

Some arseholes are self-aware OP.

For instance, I'm quite aware that I'm an arsehole most of the time. I derive some sick form of pleasure from it tbh

Everyone has at some point been considered an asshole.
