How dark is your personality?

I am, apparently, infrequently vile – I mostly put others before myself, though I may find occasions in which my dark side shines. :eek:

My psychopathic level is a little higher than yours according to the answers we gave this BBC game..  >:D

Psychopathy - "persistent antisocial behavior, impaired empathy, impaired remorse, bold, disinhibited, and egotistical traits"

I think these characteristics are often seen in people that frequent online communities like this. I feel like honest people will say they experience these traits to some extent. Reminds me of that, "Of course... but maybe," bit by Louis C.K.

I was more or less directly responsible for a teacher not getting her contract extended and I was significantly involved with another resigning.

Did they not deserve it? Or do you just regret being ruthless in your dedication to justice?

One day I had a substitute that was completely insane. Like right from the go, one kid said "present" instead of "here" and a few kids giggled and she sent the kid to the office. I distinctly remember her saying, "Y'all think thissa game.. I ain't playin around today." She was a nightmare for another few hours and half the class reported it. She was out by noon, it was very strange.

Oh all my teachers were really weird, and at the time I definitely felt like they deserved it, but of course that's bollocks. I was a pretty nasty kid in secondary school (only to teachers though, not to other pupils).

My class in eight/ninth grade was responsible for making a teacher give up and resign. I do not admit responsibility for that - because I tended to skip school a lot at that time.

I read this whole thread, not realizing how old it is.

The only terrible thing that comes to mind is one time I literally beat the guts out of a frog with a baseball bat (its organs were coming out of its mouth), and I blamed it on my neighbor friend when my mom found the body.
Maybe they're waiting for gasmasks and latex to get sexy again.

So no one here did anything really bad, seems like you were for the most part  a well-behaved bunch.

I mean, has anyone here spent time in juvie or a mental hospital or in a program for troubled youth? Like any real ****?

When I was 14, I mixed up a bunch of gunpowder from a recipe I found in Popular Science magazine, and tried lighting a little bit of it to see what happened. Unfortunately, I did this too close to the can with all the rest of it I'd mixed up, and a spark jumped from the bit I was lighting to the can, and the whole thing went up in a big ball of flame and smoke and singed my eyebrows off. They've grown back since, but—as I'm sure you'll agree—still, right?

Broke into a house that was for sale.  Spilled paint all over hard wood floors.  Pissed in the floor vents.  Turned on all of the water faucets. 

I wish someone would have told me there were better things to do than be an ******* as a kid.  Seemed funny at the time.

Not sure if it was the worst, but at least one of the most memorable:

Me and my friend built a gigantic pyramid out of pavement stones on a one way street in the middle of the night, and hid until a car came. 2 cars backed out, but one decided to throw away all the stones. Took him like 20 mins to clean everything :D

I know this woman who painted her eyebrows on too high one day.

I told her, and she looked surprised.

I have a friend here who does this. You mention one thing, and he just takes off on a tangent, assuming it's just as interesting as the first thing, without the slightest clue how odd and antisocial it seems. Apparently he can't tell the difference—it's just the way his brain is structured. Are you like that? I had a pet anteater once.

LOL! What a brilliantly evil idea. When they saw the stones they probably thought someone was going to jump out and rob them. Train robbers did that in the frontier days.

When I was 14, I mixed up a bunch of gunpowder from a recipe I found in Popular Science magazine, and tried lighting a little bit of it to see what happened. Unfortunately, I did this too close to the can with all the rest of it I'd mixed up, and a spark jumped from the bit I was lighting to the can, and the whole thing went up in a big ball of flame and smoke and singed my eyebrows off. They've grown back since, but—as I'm sure you'll agree—still, right?


Eyebrows are confusing.. What do they even do.. and how come some people don't have them 

I have a friend here who does this. You mention one thing, and he just takes off on a tangent, assuming it's just as interesting as the first thing, without the slightest clue how odd and antisocial it seems. Apparently he can't tell the difference—it's just the way his brain is structured. Are you like that? I had a pet anteater once.



Uahahahaha.. Tp4 is 100% aware and 100% Veggie @ 10% Fats.

Tp4 only supports -The important stuff- !!


As far as Anti-social.. It's par for the course as far as internet etiquette is concerned..

If the Primary writer and his topic Fails to either trend or Springboard.. He has the opportunity to shift and refocus, if that does not happen in time for ANY REASON, then The torch is passed to the Secondary Responder..


People Confuse REAL LIFE etiquette with INTERNET..

They are Two very different things..

Wish I could do that in some of the monstrosities they are building around here these days.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

when I was in third grade I smacked a kid in the head with a beach shovel

he had to go to the hospital and get staples

I dont feel bad, he was a real ****


in 9th grade there was this creepy ass girl that was crazy about one of my best friends, I stole her notebook, took pics of her love fantasy stories and sent them all around school

she thankfully never found out that it was me because that ***** was seriously psycho

Psychopathy is when someone has trouble with Empathy,  which you clearly demonstrate.

well.. being a psycho, doesn't mean you're a bad person..

But , it does mean you may exhibit callous behavior.

Depending on your socio-economic background and lvl of education,  you either end up a CEO, or a lonely dude wondering why no one likes ya..

Again.. Not fundamentally a bad thing..

Well, you're here in a good place..

@ Gekhak, no one will stop you from drowning loneliness away with endless keeb-purchasing..

And there's also Popeyes Fried Chicken, which will always be there..
