You guys have any experience interacting with narcissists? Or having someone trying to gaslight you? I myself had a lot of fun playing narcissism bingo this past yuletide.

I sort of feel like I got gaslit, but it's more like I believed someone's words, even though their actions didn't support them at all, because I wanted to believe the words and not the actions
totally someone who'd have thrown me under the bus if it meant getting closer to something they wanted

I did not have fun
<Marlin Clock> This thread seems proof positive that divisiveness at any level is usually bad for the Clock Crew.
<PhantomCatClock> are we talking about the same clock crew

PhantomCatClock

I have HONORRRRRRR and people I know/work with/am related to will never get thrown under the buuuuuus

strangers can fucking go to hell though, officer, i saw that fucking idiot do the whole thing and there's a camera right there to prove it. you should probably just beat him now because he looks like he'd resist arrest

X-Files Season 11 premiere was pretty damn good. Had some pacing issues, much like the myth arc episodes from season 10, but on the whole it felt more focused than those two. More character drama than trying to re-write the entire mythology of the show within the confines of an hour long programme.

I hope the second part, which i'm assuming will act as the season finale as it did last time, provides some closure, but you'd have to be a text book retard to expect that it actually will.

Yeah, when you (want to) believe it, I can only imagine that it must really suck. Hell, potentially it could even be dangerous and destructive. The only reason it was fun to me was because I was able to recognize these words for what they were -and they were quite feeble attempts at that- and lastly because I was confident enough in my own mental capabilities.

My favorite interaction went something like this:
TV: [Discussion about something or other.]
Me: O right, that's XYZ.
Him: XYZ? You don't know what you're talking about. XYZ he says! What an idiot.
TV: It's XYZ.
Him: Clearly you've watched this show before.
Me: You do realize that this is live...
Him: [Sulk mode.]

Of course at first I dismissed exchanges like these as a character quirk, or innocuous non sequiturs, but after a while you start noticing the patterns. When every interaction somehow ends up being about them, something's wrong. I even started setting it up: "Owch, I have a tooth ache and..." [Wait to be interrupted for a bitter, twelve minute monologue about how some dentist ruined his teeth when he was a child and how it hurt. God, how it hurt. Never has any human being experienced such terrible pains...] This person does small favors for me, and sometimes he'll try and leverage these into influence, or even control. Yet it never lands, because I don't give enough of a shit. Yet he keeps trying... I don't even know how I feel about this particular situation myself. Is it at all like a company sending me a free sample and me enjoying it, but I have no intention of ever doing business with said company? I didn't ask for a sample, and the company is clearly trying to get something from me. I take this for granted, I ignore it, I deflect. If need be, I could get something similar to the sample myself, from another venue, but I'm very lazy... Am I taking advantage? (It's quite late already and this is quickly turning in one of those sprawling thoughts you have when you're trying to sleep, only now I'm typing it all out. Only questions and no answers. E.g.:) Is a narcissist the equivalent of a regular asshole, and does he or she deserve to be treated as such? Where is the line? Or is it more like someone who suffers from depression? In the sense that it's a disorder, and not really their fault. Although the typical (internet) advice seems to be that you should cut these people from your life. Which would prove pretty controversial with many other disorders, I would think. Please stop...

Granted, it's all a fine line, as I've made this reply all about my experiences as well.

No, I would never do that and you're stupid for even thinking it.

Is there going to be a (knockoff) Darin Morgan episode?

what if there was one of those YOUNG ADULT stories about how normal life is bullshit so have a fantasy one instead (where the kids discover a NEEEEW MAGICAL WORLD. I'll use Harry Potter for this example) and like they came to get him but he'd been putting off taking a shit for a while and was just about to run to the bathroom, but now Hagrid's carrying him off on his broomstick and just the whole time HE NEEDS TO SHIT SUPER BAD like those little farts every couple seconds and he knows that can only last so long then there's the long ass train ride and he's meeting people and hoping they don't notice how uncomfortable he is much less the smell by now and


anyway i need to go to the bathroom brbrbrb

I watched Guardians of the Galaxy the other day and I figured that you were going to go here with it: what if there was one of those YOUNG ADULT stories about how normal life is bullshit so have a fantasy one instead, BUT IT TURNS OUT THEY HAVE SUFFERED A COMPLETE MENTAL BREAKDOWN. One minute your mom dies, the next you're getting hitchhiked to the galaxy? At least that's what I thought, but there's probably a Cracked or Reddit thing about it, I didn't google. But yeah, poop's better. Long and dry (wow!) scenes with exposition (corny?) where the protagonist is fidgeting about, quietly farting, anger builds, his face turns red, he starts humming, and in the middle of one of those fantasy monologues that are very hard to get right and that always balance on the very edge between inspiring and awkward he breaks and shouts "I HAVE TO TAKE A SHIT!"

Written under duress.

PhantomCatClock

Starlord/Arthur Dent's been holding it in for decades because there are no toilets in space and he's getting increasingly uncomfortable

Or write a novel but only allow yourself to sit in front of the typewriter/open the document on your computer when you really desperately need to drop a deuce

GreyClock

Most of my morning posts are written like that, because I hate getting up to take a shit for some reason. Same with showers. Then when I'm shitting or showering or both, I'm like: "This isn't so bad, why postpone?" Womenshealthmag by way of Google says postponing shits is DEADLY, so livin on the edge I guess.

RobClock

showers can always wait another ten minutes while you finish this episode of Half in the Bag



... or maybe after this new Best of the Worst




... it’s been a while since I watched the Plinkett Star Trek videos... whatever I don’t have to work today, fuck hygiene.

"Isn't that Sucker Punch? I haven't seen it." Is what I thought while shitting.

RobClock

It’s a good concept, I’m sure that it could be executed better than that mess

GreyClock

By the by, recommend to me some movies similar to Guardians of the Galaxy. Probably Guardians of the Galaxy 2. I don't mean Marvel stuff, I mean semi-interesting sci-fi space stuff. For escapism purposes. Fifth Element is cool, so is HHGttG, I've already seen most of the Star Wars stuff. Probably no TV shows, as I generally find them hokey and slow, but maybe you can convince me otherwise. I doubt there's much out there that I haven't heard of but... I'd reread HHGttG or something but I've been actively brain-dead for the past couple of months.

RobClock

Are you looking for adventures in space type stuff or just good sci-fi
