When something awful happens, people tend to pay attention to the awful thing, especially the victims. This is unacceptable to the Attention Shrieker who must be the center of attention at all times. Thus, whenever something happens which might draw attention away from them, they will start shrieking. Not only is attention expected, but reassurance and coddling to remind them that though someone just had both of their legs ripped off by an alligator, THEY are the real victim.
When the man jumped off the building, the attention shriekers immediately began shrieking so people would look at them instead of the dying man.

B: "Don't feel bad, that was definitely an attention walk."

Get the Attention deficit disorder mug.Hym "It's easy to trivialize by calling me an 'attention seeker' but, really, think about it: How many people are actually doing anything even remotely close to this? Are they getting attention for it? Is this some 'optimal attention receiving strategy' I'm unaware of? And, relative to who? Who are you comparing me to? How am I any worse than your average wannabe Instagram model or actress in that regard? The difference is, you wouldn't even be asking. You would just throw your money at me, no questions asked. And, in the context of my situation, I couldn't get you to stop giving me attention if I tried. Wouldn't it be a strange thing for me to lie about? Is anything I've said untrue, or what? Are you the arbiter of who deserves attention now too? Are you trying to arbitrarily deny me attention? And as far as 'getting a big head" is concerned, do the phrases 'So, easy it isn't even fair for me to compete' or 'You're lucky I even allow you to have a country?' ring any bells? My head was already as big as it gets. You all just mistakenly affirmed all of the things I confidently asserted. It was an 'unintentional ego boost' to you. But where is this 'attention is to be denied to anyone who would seek it' thing coming from? And why isn't it being applied to YouTuber and Instagram/Onlyfans models?"
