    You were the one who said not to respond directly. Many have her on ignore but her constant refrain is hard to ignore. Her posts are copied. And, yeah, I think bae is a special person, albeit not in the manner in which you inferred.

    May be cost prohibitive to do on a large scale weekly???

I just did a quick review and he seems to have written stories about an Texas gunman in early 20th century Afghanistan, which I don't recall reading, but does stir the imagination.
    Francis Xavier Gordon, known to the locals as El Borak. As I recall, he spent a lot of time on the edge of cliffs with beautiful women in wispy clothing. You couldn’t get away with writing stuff like that today.

    I didn't infer anything, you posted the following:
    Signs and symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder:

    Grandiose sense of self-importance. ...
    Lives in a fantasy world that supports their delusions of grandeur. ...
    Needs constant praise and admiration. ...
    Sense of entitlement. ...
    Exploits others without guilt or shame. ...
    Frequently demeans, intimidates, bullies, or belittles others.

    I asked if you thought people who engage in some of the activities listed in the last line of your description might be on the "Special" spectrum. I asked because I see a lot of that.

    Supposedly, everyone has a bit of narcissism to some degree. But, those who continually beat a dead horse and refuse to abate even when many people complain truly have NPD.

    It might help some of us if you and others would let us know if you're talking about a person or masks. Frankly I can't tell the difference.

    John Lewis was arrested 24 times for asking for his rights. I am sure many in the South were tired of him doing so and complained. Did John Lewis suffer from NPD because he wasn't a people pleaser and wouldn't shut up?

    Huh? Obviously, a person...

    Those who (yppej) continually beat a dead horse (mask issue) and refuse to abate even when many people complain about her (she) truly has NPD.

    I hope this clears it up for you.

    I believe happy and others have reiterated this again and again. Even asking the moderator to intervene.

    Yes, you've been very clear, I suppose it was me that wasn't. I guess I should have said that whether someone is going on and on about masks or if they're going on and on about the least favorite poster, it all looks the same to me.
