Narcissistic personality disorder is a pervasive pattern of grandiose thoughts and/or behavior, need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
1. Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents while minimizing failures, expects to be recognized as superior without earning that reverence).
2. Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love; often becomes a life goal.
3. Believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
4. Requires excessive admiration, regardless of whether they earned the admiration.
5. Has a sense of entitlement, unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance from others.
6. Exploits other people, using them to achieve his or her own ends.
7. Lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others.
8. Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her.
9. Shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes.

9. Shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes.
Narcissistic personality disorder often manifests in corporate CEOs, politicians (like Kim-Jong Il, Stalin, Saddam Hussein, etc.), cult leaders (like Jim Jones, David Berg, Warren Jeffs, Joseph Smith, etc), corrupt authorities, corrupt clergy or religious leaders, criminals (like Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Gertrude Baniszewski, Diane Downs, etc), celebrities (like Rush Limbaugh, OJ Simpson, Donald Trump, etc.) among others.
Personality disorders usually overlap and the narcissist shares many traits with the paranoid, histrionic and antisocial personalities: the paranoid and the narcissist are both often irrationally suspicious and distrustful but the paranoid acts in self-defense while narcissists fear any exposure of their failures and flaws; the histrionic and narcissist both want to be the centre of attention, but the histrionic is usually playful, dependent, is more exaggerated in emotional display, and craves *any* attention (good or bad) while the narcissist is haughty, exploits others, and will only accept admiration; the antisocial personality and the narcissist are both ruthless, glib manipulators who ruin lives but the antisocial personality does not need excessive admiration, is deceptive, impulsive, aggressive, and degrades and manipulates others for profit or pleasure while narcissists publicly disparage others, think of their futures, and bully others to bolster their own egos.

Get the Narcissist mug.‘Nancied’ (Adj.) – When a player goes "All In" in a game of Poker (Texas Hold 'Em), with little chance of winning, but eventually secures the winning hand after the flop, usually on the river (3rd & final round), and often without knowing that they have actually won. This player is said to have ‘Nancied’ her opponents.
From an alternative point of view: When a player with a strong hand on the flop (1st round) or the turn (2nd round), and gets knocked out by an opponent using the above strategy, it is said that s/he has been 'Nancied'.
This technique has been repeatedly demonstrated by legendary poker player Nancy, from Caroline Springs (Victoria, Australia), who is notorious for her incredible luck and cluelessness.
The term is also used in a wider context around Melbourne, when someone has been a victim of a fluke or extremely good luck, despite being in a strong position in the situation.

Get the Nancied mug.A narc mom is a Mom who you might consider the best mom ever but then she has a way of turning her back on you. She is very manipulative ahe has a way of pushing you to do things, shes your biggest critic, yet in her mind she has an illusion that she is a great mom. She is jelous of her children and always needs to be right. You can talk to her and she will try to change the subject and she will get off topic alot. She wont acually care if your puring your heart out to her she will still smile like yoir not crying right in front of her. People say " you only have one parent be nice to them" but a narc mom isnt your typical mother shes not your biggest fan.
