It’s a tossup between Silo and SkySlash.

I’m too shy and reserved to be egotistical. Must be due to all the teasing.

But they will learn.

They **ALWAYS** learn.

Heh heh heh.

Oh and I nominate… umm… i dunno…aha i guess…

I am an artist, but only of self-portraits. No other subject is worthy of my talents.

I had children just to see if I could replicate myself. It didn’t work due to the inferior genetics of the egg donors.

My lovers wear a suit of mirrors so that I, too, can see just how good I am.

I’m so vain that I _do_ think that song is about me.

I recently completed a 10 week team building exercise. Alone.

You are nothing more than a sock puppet who exists at my leisure.

I have the only vote. I win.

The writer Annie Lamott once identified the type of egotistical species I am: The Egomaniac with low self-esteem.

Or, as she put it,

The piece of sh\*t that the rest of the world revolves around.

I realize I am not “playing right”, but I do think I deserve my own category. I can be Queen Sh\*t of Turd Hill.

It is good that you capitalized my name. It is not good that you abbreviated. I am “Doctor Jackson, Sir” to you.

Never mix another name in a post with mine. Ever.

Never use an inclusive term like “somebody” to group me with anyone else. The correct terminology would be:

> [@](#):
>
> WOO HOO! Doctor Jackson, Sir, immediately, completely and thoroughly understood the meaning of the original post. He posted, as is to be expected, a salient and witty reply. Some sock puppet then followed Doctor Jackson, Sir’s, excellent reply with a lame attempt at immitation. All our thanks and admiratioin are due Doctor Jackson, Sir, for allowing himself to be bothered by our trivial matters.

I see that I have made you happy. I do not care.

I’m so good, God screams my name during sex.

I have nude paintings in my library, of ME.

The Earth doesn’t revolve around the sun, it revolves around ME.
