Self Centered, Self Involved, Self Destructive
Olivia Stren on the self-love of narcissists

[Flare Magazine (Nov.10) - Excerpt]
"Narcissism is the dark side of individualism," says Campbell, who explains that while North American society has long celebrated the individual and the pursuit of happiness, narcissism is individualism run amok; if individualism is the character actor, narcissism is the reality TV star. "It's individualism without responsibilty, without a fundamental sense of equality - it gets easily perverted. The pursuit of happiness can go from liberty to doing whatever the hell you want. It's the idea of license versus liberty." [...]

Narcissists, tending to be charming and self-promotional, also have a talent for initiating shallow relationships - making sites such as Facebook a fantasyland for the everyday narcissist. Facebook may not have caused the epidemic, and may not have the power to turn the average user into a narcissist, but it serves as a playpen for narcissists, giving them the arena to do what they love: peacock and self-promote. "What we've found is that narcissistic people who use Facebook, use it as a way of maintaining their narcissism - to present themselves with highly attractive and provocative images. It allows people who are narcissistic to be narcissistic." In that sense, Facebook is to the narcissist, what the liquor store is to the alcoholic - it won't create one so much as fuel one. [...]

Russian Prime Minister Personally Puts Out Two Wildfires
COMMENT
"He's worse than Saddam. More dangerous, because he's been in charge of an enormous country which he's treated like his own personal fiefdom. I can't express how bad this psycho creep has been, and continues to be, for Russia. Back to the same czarist bullshit--no middle class, just the corrupt, obscenely rich & the tragically poor. "Economic growth," my ass. He's pumping oil & gas like crazy, enriching himself & his corrupt dog-pig oligarch friends, and tossing a few scraps to the moujiks to keep them quiet.

Hey, at least vodka's cheap & plentiful!"

A Ten-Step Support Group for Bedbugs
COMMENT
"OK, this is going to sound like I'm getting paid to endorse this company, but I'm seriously a satisfied customer and want to share with any and all fellow bedbug sufferers that YOU CAN DO IT BY YOURSELF! you really can! no exterminator needed. In fact, if you use an exterminator, you will likely get a second infestation. The exterminator's methods do not target the eggs. So in a few days. Boom. Another infestation.

However! This company,
Dead Bed Bugs sells products that acutally work. I swear.

I bought the mattress and box spring covers, the spray (which smells pleasantly of peppermint), and the Diatomaceous Earth dust with sprayer.

All of these things are totally natural and completely safe for pets, I even lent the leftovers to a friend who was having troubles and she was comfortable using it on her baby's bed.

Its a little time consuming, and it may seem strange to have to vacuum your mattress, but once you get it all done you will not see another bug. One afternoon waging war against them and I've been bug free for more than a year. You get a lot of product for your money so should the need arise again, you'll not need to spend MORE money on exterminators that don't kill all of the bugs.

Seriously, do yourself a favor and buy this stuff. The spray was so cool. I caught one against the wall and sprayed his ass and I could see him melting before my eyes. It took about 5 seconds. Which, when you have bedbugs is a godsend."
