CONFIRMING the suspicions of many social media sceptics, researchers have established a direct link between the number of friends a person has on Facebook and the degree to which they are a narcissist.

A study published in the journal, Personality and Individual Differences, found people who scored highly on the Narcissistic Personality Inventory questionnaire had more friends on Facebook, tagged themselves more often and updated their newsfeeds more regularly.

Family member unfriend you?

I do not get the FB meltdown. Why would someone announce to everyone they know and whatever perfect strangers they've friended that they are mentally unstable? People should keep that chit to themselves.

Nothing ceases to amaze me anymore.

:lol: We have a friend, highly educated, known him for a very long time who makes that announcement 1 time per week. I seriously think there is a link between having a high IQ and an inability to handle your emotions.

So perhaps he/she is one of those people??? You know - real smart people but socially held back.

I could give you the name. The stupidhead doesn't have their page locked down. It is open for everyone in the world to see. :lol:

Must not be on my list then. No biggie, I witness enough dysfunction.

I never say that anymore because something always comes along to prove me wrong.

"Oh, so my password is 'casesensitive' and not that ABK348 thing you all sent me?"

I guess that explains my constant stoic calmness.

Nothing ceases to amaze me anymore.

Deep thought.

"Oh, so my password is 'casesensitive' and not that ABK348 thing you all sent me?"

Repeat after me... I, <state your name>, do solemnly swear..."

I, State my Name, do solemnly swear..."

I stumbled upon it purely by chance. :lol:

I have a couple of those types on my friends list. It's entertaining yet I always feel like finding a shrink in their area and giving them the phone number so they can get the meds they clearly need. It's funny yet truly pathetic.

Megatron must have had that right....

...or did he say 'disgusting'? :oh well:

...whatever.

I never gave it any thought, although I've been accused of "friend collecting" because I do have a high number of Facebook Friends - not really the case, there are exceptions.

A lot of people, I really do know IRL or coworkers, future, past and present, and then others are friends of friends that ask me and I accept their requests, and the largest percentage is people in a support group that I belong to for a brain disorder and we support each other with daily issues, brain surgeries and related complications of the disorder.

They were all very helpful and supportive to have a few years ago after I personally had brain surgery. A scant few folks I accept their reqeust simply because they seem decent or we do have similar friends. I started doing checks on Maryland's judiciary website first though. :yay: :lol:

I don't have many FB friends. I used to, but I posted stupid sh*t and they all unfriended me. Now I post stupid sh*t here instead.
