    and your IQ its worth saying is a few points even higher then mine

    Just a few ...

    I think the funniest thing about this entire thread is the note "edited for spelling error" at the bottom of your first post.

    You're doing this on purpose, right? Right?

    The importance of the IQ input is because Dabrowski's theory of positive disintegration largely applies only towards the gifted and genius - the bright don't even qualify or exhibit any overexcitabilities.

    Good grief - It's not that I'm putting anyone down, or putting myself up- the large part of this simply is in coping with overexcitabilities, and dealing with simpletons in day-to-day life. It is something someone gifted would realize is a blessing and yet can be a daily curse - particularly when suffering from insomnia.


    -_-

    Talk about proving some of my points for me...sheesh.

    Here's a book that can help you with your research. And maybe your insomnia.

    http://www.amazon.com/You-Might-Narcissist-Narcissism-Ourselves/dp/1934938742/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1407175819&sr=8-7&keywords=self+help+for+the+narcissist



    All of your naysayers should consider reading these.

    http://www.amazon.com/How-Deal-Narcissist-Barry-Sullivan-ebook/dp/B00LDWZLVM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1407175727&sr=8-1&keywords=self+help+for+the+narcissist

    http://www.amazon.com/Disarming-Narcissist-Surviving-Thriving-Self-Absorbed/dp/1608827607/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1407175727&sr=8-3&keywords=self+help+for+the+narcissist

    http://www.amazon.com/The-Object-Affection-Reflection-Narcissists/dp/075730768X/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1407175727&sr=8-4&keywords=self+help+for+the+narcissist

    I'll check it out - I'm fairly certain I don't display narcissist character traits.

    I take criticism rather well - I constantly learn from doing so.
    I show empathy to those I feel pity for, and never behave cruel towards them.
    I do have a strong will to power, but I don't feel the need to behave cruel as I gain stature - even to those I may not be fond of.
    I am an extreme optimist - hence me fighting for existentialism in this moral vacuum.
    I don't sleep with strangers.


    ^ I'll entertain the book though because I do place a great deal of value on appearance, I'm extremely competitive if I'm interested, and I have a hard time feeling.

    Kierkegaard is for chumps.

    :angry:

    Care to elaborate on that? I look up to him a great, great deal. - He provided more insight for the individual then even Nietzsche.

    Is it unbridled arrogance day in the forums?

    Sorry, but I have $50mm in derivatives to deal with, and I stopped thinking of existentialism in undergrad.

    How am I doing?

    I have $2.0B in real estate assets to deal with but apparently I would rather be here reading these stupid threads on MFP. Shoot, I think my IQ just dropped by reading this thread.

    Respectfully, left to your own devices many of you move strictly off of impulse & 'herd' mentality rather then forming your own identity

    I think I have a new ambition...to be part of an alpaca herd.

    Actually, no, because your error was in the middle of a sentence, they were correct, because they were correcting that segment of your sentence. The correct way to word it was:

    He provided more insight for the individual than even Nietzsche.*

    I suggest you put your pseudo-intellectual, condescending attitude down now.

    ETA: Respectfully. :flowerforyou:

    :noway:

    I corrected myself and 'then' :wink: opened up the floor to hear out his point?

    I sincerely do not mean to be coming across as condescending. Once again my discussion has to do largely with the gifted- it was what my initial post stated on this thread - which is why I asked for their participation in particular.

    You used the word "I" 10 times in your example of how you don't display narcissistic traits.
  • I couldn't make it through your first paragraph. Best of luck with your book.
