Heās right there!
NOW donāt get all offended or anything (any of youse). I have a serious question. I am trying to get the psychology. What goes through your head when a) you decide to take a selfie, and b) you decide to post it here? I am serious. This is like a very foreign language to me. Does not compute.

Pet rocks? Huh?
Honestly, selfies make me want to puke. WTF. I never suggested selfieism was retarded, or involved āover confidence,ā whatever that isā¦ Please, look up ānarcissistic persoanlity disorderā and ponder it for a few minutes.

Taking selfies doesnāt make you a āmalignant narcissistā Boro. Donāt listen to that crap.
I understand itās what your generation does. You guys are the masters of oversharing online because you never hang out with people IRL.

10 speeds were for kids who liked being left on the road while the rest of us hit the trails on our BMXs.
I used to motocross on my vintage schwinn telegraph bike.
Thatās crazy talk!
Not all young people take selfies all the time. I know. I am surrounded by people in their early 20s.
Just FYI (You never know when this might come in handy)
7 Deadly Sins of Narcissism
1.Shamelessness: Shame is the feeling that lurks beneath all unhealthy narcissism, and the inability to process shame in healthy ways.
2.Magical thinking: Narcissists see themselves as perfect, using distortion and illusion known as magical thinking. They also use projection to ādumpā shame onto others.
3.Arrogance: A narcissist who is feeling deflated may āreinflateā their sense of self-importance by diminishing, debasing, or degrading somebody else.
4.Envy: A narcissist may secure a sense of superiority in the face of another personās ability by using contempt to minimize the other person or their achievements.
5.Entitlement: Narcissists hold unreasonable expectations of particularly favorable treatment and automatic compliance because they consider themselves special. Failure to comply is considered an attack on their superiority, and the perpetrator is considered an āawkwardā or ādifficultā person. Defiance of their will is a narcissistic injury that can trigger narcissistic rage.
6.Exploitation: Can take many forms but always involves the exploitation of others without regard for their feelings or interests. Often the other person is in a subservient position where resistance would be difficult or even impossible. Sometimes the subservience is not so much real as assumed.
7.Bad boundaries: Narcissists do not recognize that they have boundaries and that others are separate and are not extensions of themselves. Others either exist to meet their needs or may as well not exist at all. Those who provide narcissistic supply to the narcissist are treated as if they are part of the narcissist and are expected to live up to those expectations. In the mind of a narcissist, there is no boundary between self and other.
That got me to thinking. If I take my own facebook friends as a small sample, I can say this:
I have quite a few young āfriendsā ā my kids, some of my kidsā friends, and some of my former students. None of them take a lot of selfies. There are two people among my āfriendsā who take a ton of selfies. One is in her late 40s, the other is in her early 60s.
So, I think (itās just what I think, not a pronouncement) itās more of a personality trait than an age thing, though admittedly, more narcissists among the young will take selfies than narcissists among the older crowd, because more of them are going to be adept with the technology.
