I only stated you were exhibiting a common trait of a sociopath, and did not say you WERE a sociopath. And, then, following a barrage of irate posters (who had already called you every obscene name in the book and cursed your firstborn) who were offended by my comment, I said “well, of course he’s not a sociopath. But…etc etc etc.” Unless the most insane Doper title means something to you…(backing slowly away), well then, yes, you’re the one.😃 ---

I was going to mention FORMERAGENT, but I think he was just a bored kid who thought he could fool us. Then you’ve got your standard bilious angry guys, like **Uekte**. Then you’ve got your just-plain-assholes, like **Bossk** , **Ace of Swords** , **Demo** , etc. Then you’ve got your arrogant, full of shit types, like **Chas E.**. Remember that classic “I, and I alone know who invented the Transformers, and I will not tell you” thread? BUT----- For dyed-in-the-wool, crazier than an outhouse rat, batshit **lunacy** , try reading some of **kathatsung** ’s stuff over at Fathom. I’m not sure what Opal’s policy is about linking directly, but you’ll find it. Scary stuff. ---

There was a spammer here once upon a time named **Bukkake Fan**. Robin and I still get chuckles talking about his schtick. ---

Hmm. I just ran across [this final thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=131953) by **G. Nome** , who (among other things) claimed that the government caused 9/11 specifically to prevent her from mailing a couple packages to NYC. That’s complete balderdash, of course. One, the government did NOT cause 9/11. It was caused by GOD. Two, it was GOD who caused 9/11 to prevent ME from being on that “Who Wants to Be a Millionare?” game show. Seriously, in August 2001, I had a “vision” (which was quite rare, at that time) that my life was leading to an “ultimate confrontation” which, while not a life-ending event, would finally wrap up all these “Game-related” plot lines in my life that had pretty much all burned out and faded away by then. Not that I _expected_ to win a million dollars, of course…indeed, I figured that I’d probably lose big time (like blowing the first question) and, in the process, learn something that wraps it all up, in a novelistic sense. (I do know that if I _were_ to write my life story as a novel, I’d choose NYC as the location for the “final showdown”…because, hey! It’s a great city, and nothing has happened to me there yet.) But then GOD said, “Oh, no! We can’t let YOU have that!” and…well, you know the rest. Oh, and I also caused the '94 Northridge quake. But that’s an even longer story… ---

Interesting. Too bad Psychology doesn’t recognize insanity or insanity. Now mentally Ill on the other hand… Sanity or Insanity are legal schemas. ---

I can say with all certainty that the individuals who have nominated themselves as the most insane are not and a far cry from being mentally ill and deserving of the adjective insane. When’s the last time you had a true hallucination? Awoken covered in blood and you know it’s not yours. Walked into Harlem and re-enacted a brief vignette from Kentucky Fried Movie regarding the man without fear? Collected countless liters of urine over the years and have them sorted by color, clarity and taste using the Dewey decimal system? Those are the true hallmarks of insanity not merely being clever at drawing attention at oneself with words or different colors. ---

Well, I’ve been locked up and force-drugged for it, does that count? Or, more to the point, something I did or was counted in the opinion of the fellow who decided I ought to be locked up. I don’t agree with him, and didn’t at the time, but he was the one with the keys and the robust associates wearing the hospital scrubs. ---

An insane Doper? I can think of one. Ever hear of a guy called… … **Cecil Adams**? Think about it. 1. Erratic personality. Cecil’s columns have been written (er, “edited”) by various people over the years, all with their own style of writing. 1. Dissociative Identity Disorder/Multiple Personalities One minute he thinks he’s **Cecil Adams** , the next he’s **Ed Zotti**. Rumor has it that he once thought of himself as _both_ **Zotti** and **Adams** at the same time, but the massive ego that this created nearly ruptured the space-time continuum, and he has promised never to do this again. 1. Delusions of Grandeur “Perfect Master”? Please. A research team and a clever, trademarked pseudonym for said team does not a Perfect Master make. I think the evidence is fairly conclusive. Lock him up, I say. ---
