Narcissists Anonymous...

    Worked with a few in my time...

    12 steps of narcissists anonymous.
    1. We admitted we were powerless over how great we are–and making other people’s lives unmanageable.
    2. We came to believe that there is no power greater than ourselves and everyone else must be restored to sanity to recognize how great we are.
    3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Ourselves. (We might need some narcissistic supply from you from time to time to keep ourselves propped up, however.)
    4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves and found nothing wrong with our morals.
    5. Admitted to God (who’s God anyway? Me?), to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our superiority over others.
    6. Were entirely ready to have God remove any stray defects of character from us and project them onto others.
    7. Humbly asked Him to keep blessing us with more power over others.
    8. Made a list of all persons we want to harm, and became willing to manipulate and torment them all.
    9. Did not make direct amends to other people at any time, except when to do so would injure them or others.
    10. Continued to take personal inventory, and when we were wrong, promptly denied it, projected it, or gaslighted against someone.
    11. Sought through navel-gazing and meditation on ourselves how to improve our conscious contact with Ourselves as we understood us to be, praying only for knowledge that will enable us to one day become Gods ourselves.
    12. Having realized we were magnificent specimens of perfect humanity, we tried to carry this message to everyone we come into contact with, especially those who are under our thrall. We continued to practice these principles in all our affairs.
    Amen.

    An aurora borealis? At this time of the year, at this time of the day, localized entirely in your kitchen? -

    Narcissism, like all personality disorders, is a difficult one.

    On the one hand, the person has a legitimate mental condition, you want to be sympathetic.
    On the flip-side, they're acting the cnut.

    What to do?

    Shoot them in the leg and then drive them to hospital.

    I come from a family of narcissists. I either had to learn to live with it, as in shut up and put up with it or walk away. I walked away. Life is too short when people don't treat you as an adult.

    Many sasquatch 'sightings' may actually be black bears, who spend more of time standing upright on their hind legs than once thought.

    Therapeutic decapitation has a long history associated with the effective treatment of narcissistic personality disorder, despite more recent legal doubts about the practice.

    According to my Facebook feed, narcissists are responsible for every bad thing that goes on in the world.
