[Pnx]

If it stops me from doing the same thing again yes, but I wouldn't call that a definite yes. It really depends on the odds of being caught. If I can personally minimize the risk it's a no. Also, no shame or guilt.

Hmm. Well, I mean, you could be. But I guess the real question is, are you the bad kind? Do you hurt people or critters just because or out of curiosity? Emotionally manipulate people into doing what you want? Completely disregard the feelings and desires of others unless it suits your purpose?

Just so you know, you accidentally made it look like you said that. Which actually makes for a much more interesting conversation.

[GlyphGryph]

Hahah. Whups.

Not only a psychopath, but certifiably insane to boot.

That slip made everything better in this thread.

I was once administered a psych profile test by a batch of Scientologists (when I just wanting to get the hell away from them). Their prognosis was that I was borderline psychotic. I remember one of them telling me, "You really need our help. I mean, according to this, you could fly into a murderous rage at any time!"

To which I merely grinned maniacally and said very calmly, "Why yes, I do believe you're right."

Emotionally manipulate people into doing what you want?

Oh come now....we ALL do that. My two-year old could teach advanced courses on it. 

[GlyphGryph]

Two Year olds ARE psychotic, though. You're supposed to grow out of it.

(okay, not technically, but they are actually REALLY close)

[RedKing]

No, you're actually probably right. Considering one of the main things that sends him into uncontrollable giggling fits is his sister pretending to slip and fall. Because pain and misfortune are funny when it's not you.

[Karlito]

I suppose this is just pedantry, but psychosis and psychopathy are different things entirely.

[GlyphGryph]

Did... did anyone mention psychosis? Did I miss it?

[Dutchling]

No we didn't, and you didn't miss anything either. Now follow the nice nurse and go back to your room.

[MonkeyHead]

Make sure you wear your jacket that fastens the sleeves behind you...

[GlyphGryph]

One sec, just let me finish this conversation first.

If it stops me from doing the same thing again yes, but I wouldn't call that a definite yes. It really depends on the odds of being caught. If I can personally minimize the risk it's a no. Also, no shame or guilt.

Well... if so, stop doing that. Bad.

Those are all true. Doesn't everybody find joy in the suffering of others? Isn't there even a word for it? Aren't people more than willing to destroy things out of curiosity? (see mythbusters!). Most people don't even care about animal lives! And EVERYBODY emotionally manipulates everybody, it's how humans work! And I certainly don't disregard the feelings of others. They aren't over important to me, but I consider how they'll impact my ability to get what I want.

And if that's bad, well... I don't want to be good.

Now, off to my cell! Jeeves, retrieve my coat!

[Dutchling]

Did you quoted a post of yourself quoting yourself?

[Dutchling]

They certainly have.

[GlyphGryph]

Watch those pronouns greatorder, only one of those personalities is a dude!

(There's no way to win in response to that comment, I recommend ignoring it)

[The Fool]

If you were seriously asking me if I enjoy the suffering of others, I accept telemarketers calls just to make them hang up in frustration. EVERYTIME. I love it. I especially love it when they call again and it's the same person. They hang up pretty quick.

I don't know if I enjoy physically hurting others though. It's kind of hard not to be arrested or sued for that, so I don't bother trying. I might be one sadistic soldier if I joined the military though.
