    Hey, Frank, kiss it :)

    We all know people who are self-centered enough to cause emotional pain just to have their way. Who doesn't know someone like that?

    of course, and i hardly think it's uncommon. i tend to believe that people are naturally self-centered...not in a bad way at all, it's simply a mode of survival. i'm absolutely certain that i've done things that cause pain to others in the pursuit of things that i consider important. i'd never intend my actions to cause anyone pain, but i wouldn't change my actions either, so i guess i'm not a terribly noble person.

    yes, there's lots of them around.

    It's good to identify these ones so that you are not their next victim.

    Umm. . I'm sure that I've harmed someone to get what I want. Don't we all?

    True... To get a job one must "harm" the other applicants... but this is not really an act of malice.

    Would I be willing to harm someone to get what I want.

    Depends on who it is.

    99% of the time, no, I do not advocate violence.

    However in the remaining 1%... I would be willing to do just about anything.

    IMHO, I'd see nothing wrong with bloodying Ted Jaracz face a little bit. Maybe even a little Chinese water torture. After all, he and his cronie GB members have no problem adhering to doctrine which kill countless people every year. Why not see him with a black eye and a paralyzed body crying for his nonexistent tribal god to save him.. suffering a little bit instead of living high off the hog with his cocky ass mouth (as seen on BBC Panorama)?

    Just my 2 cents.
