I hope narcissism is a good thing

I was browsing Yohami’s blog this evening and saw he’d scored himself on a Narcissism Quiz. Sounds good to me, let’s give it a try….
Jesus fucking Christ am I that full of myself????? Brilliant. That’s one third of the Dark Triad sorted. Now I need to work on my psychopathy and Machiavellianism
Holy crap. You probably only need 4 more points in Exploitativeness to cover the Machiavellic base.
you lie
Thank god! I thought I was an outlier at 33!
Is this supposed to be a good thing?
I scored 20. The problem with this test is what if someone actually *IS* exceptional? So them thinking they are so is a “disorder”? So you’re only ‘normal’ if you believe you are no different to others despite evidence to the contrary? That sounds like delusion. Of course, truly deluded people really believe they *are* exceptional though, right? So in conclusion both the delusional and the exceptional (who are not delusionally modest) score the same.
In answer to your question no, narcissism is not a good thing; it makes you a wanker. Being a great person though, is, but only if you manage to keep the egomania in tow.
ps. talk of the ‘dark triad’…. mmmm…. are you going to the Dark Side?
Maybe you are just THAT confident….

Sometimes alpha bloggers wonder how they will manage when the betas have all learned Game. The results of your test show why for most of us “learning Game” will never work.
It also answers a question I had about your conversations in your recent (February 2012) posts with the Thai girl and the girl in the Islington bar. How do you not merely learn what to say, but have the barefaced cheek to say it?
Yes, it’s great to read the blogs, learn about the lies that society has told us, and get some tips on correcting negative behavior that women actively dislike. But most of us cannot become “alpha”, because narcissism cannot be faked.
[If you delve into the archives you'll see none of this stuff came naturally to me. K.]
