and the standing favorite for narcissists - "As The World Turns Around Me"

Jingle bells, my house smells...

I seem to be fixated on Christmas

Being both paranoid and narcissistic, I know people are always talking about me. But probably not nearly as many as there should be.

What's a narcissist's idea of being a "slave"?
Not being able to boss everyone else about.

How many narcissists does it take to change a light bulb?
One. She holds the bulb while the world revolves around her.

You forgot about "He thinks the world revolves around him" because he is on a power trip and loves to dissimillate.

Or the pathological liar who thinks they tell the truth.
