Professor Gates of Columbia University defined the psychological issues of human behavior in terms of 'urges'. His work (which I came
across Sunday evening) was published in 1939, long before Maslow's Progressive Hierarchy of human needs. Chuckled over it, realizing
his list of thirteen 'urges' sheds light on our universa ancestors' creativity with neighborhood graffiti on those cave walls.

This sub category of social approval need epitomizes self absorption in the narcissistic extreme. Symptoms of its presence are detectable
in the posts and thread of intelligent veteran members and site newcomers alike, who are accustomed to strutting their stuff and getting
their way and pushing the little people around. This mentality is reflected in an attitude of superiority. It's driven by an unbridled lust for
approbation reinforcement, which is roughly the equivalent of crude ego/emotional masturbation in public. Daily inner dialogue probably
goes like this... I'm such an attractive and irresistible person... such a good person (doing this and that and owning so many things)...
and so smart... and people say I'm wonderful... you must think I'm wonderful too... you do, right... and don't ever cross me... I'll see
to it that you'll regret it if you do... you must understand... just praise me and everything will be fine. This pitiful and hypersensitive bully
behavior is intolerant of challenge and completely insensitive to the needs of other lesser people. It reeks of arrogant disdain. The stench
of it is enough to make an otherwise slow to anger, relaxed, forgiving and gentle soul almost bilious. Oh, I almost forgot to spell out
The LHM/DIM Fulfillment Factor: Love or Hate Me but Don't Ignore Me. Old Professor Gates is quite possibly sitting up in his lonely grave.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyGB, I was spurred on to a little psychological self-examination by this post. It didn't last very long, though. I got caught somewhere between self-examination and self-absorption and started getting dizzy πππ

What a painfully embarrassing self-revelatory projection of your internal weaknesses onto other people. "If I'm suuuuuuuuuuper nice, no one will be mean to me. The mean baddies here will just whistle and walk on by." Say something interesting or be gone. Your drooling, blathering, nonsensical posts, with their syrupy man-hugs suck the life out of the forums. Buy a teddy bear instead and man up.
Dogs that bite casual passersby get put down.
If you don't want to participate in a conversation, just go somewhere else.

Vanity of vanities saith the preacher, all is vanity and vexation of spirit.
