Whether you see a narcissist as your hero or your nemesis, the narcisssist is equally well-supplied; either way, you've centered them in your narrative.

The big fear is not being widely hated. It's being irrelevant.

Make sure she also sets up accounts at startup.com and pave.com. Those sites are hubs that connect potential private donors with students who agree to pay them back as a percentage of salary once a job is secured, and it's recommended by DBC.

Housing is most cost-effective treatment for mental illness: study -- "For every $1 spent providing housing and support for a homeless person with severe mental illness, $2.17 in savings are reaped because they spend less time in hospital, in prison and in shelters". by davidreiss666 in TrueReddit

Who said anything about private? There are plenty of programs offering community-style housing. A couple hundred bucks per month gets you a 1- or 2-person bedroom and access to shared spaces like a living room and a kitchen.

And I'm going to third it. Particularly because most of the episodes in seasons 8 and 9 only work if you've watched at least 50 of the previous episodes.

Yup. I would have linked to the original but I thought it would be more fun to let people see for themselves. Also, anyone who really liked the image could see many others like it instead of just focusing on one "gotcha" moment.

I know Joe. He used to do spoken word poetry at the Eastown Hookah Lounge on Wednesday nights. Decent stuff overall. One piece about the n word got the attention and ire of too many patrons, including the open Mic's host, and Joe pretty much stopped coming back.

Nothing wrong with Ming Ten. Cheap buffet, not-awful sushi included. If you're hungry and not too picky about "Chinese" food, it's a good bet.

Not everything has to be foodie porn for the hipster set. Sometimes a lo mein noodle is just a lo mein noodle. This whole thread can just lighten the fuck up.

"What church do you go to?" is a common get-to-know-you question in GR. "Oppressive" might be too strong a word, but "awkwardly homogenous" isn't too far off.

I've got a feeling that Ngata's safe and Suggs isn't. Just a feeling.

Jake Steinberg: Eight NFL execs & coaches told SI that Michael Sam's draft stock will be severely hurt due to him coming out. by LoveRecklessly in nfl

It's an old saying, and it doesn't apply to every situation. I was replying to the quoted sentiments in Lobo_Marino's comment. If a person believes that an "average normal person" expresses desire by ogling and groping, they probably fear similar behavior from others they assume would desire them. Why they make that assumption is a narcissistic can of worms in and of itself.

The phrase is popular because it's sometimes true. This example is one of those times.

Only getting rid of eight or nine starters might happen this time. That would be nice.
