would you like a dramatic applause in your favor?

If I had to eliminate all other issues I have with the mindset of the basic human population, this would be the one, single, solitary issue that I couldn't possibly give up.

It bothers me to the extent that I cannot possibly live on a daily basis without being annoyed and mentally tormented by the absolute ignorance these certain people exhibit.

I wouldn't necessarily classify it as ignorance, per se, but it certainly is some form of stupidity or mental illness.

Certain people that, I can only assume, have a low self-esteem, and insanely high self-esteem, are obsessed with attention, or obsessed with being liked by the general population, have a specific issue with their personality...

They feel that it is completely necessary to share every single aspect of their life with the entire world.

If a teacher asks a question to the "general class," this person believes that he or she must include their personal input pertaining to the matter.

"So, how did the French Revolution effect other parts of the world during the 18th. century?"
"Oh my gosh!! My uncle is from France! I've been there twice! It's just so great! Ahhh!"

Students who actually wanted to share their answers with the class, who actually raised their hands instead of calling out, were ignored. Their hopes and dreams of impressing the teacher with their prestigious ideas were crashed and burned all because of this one student's decision to rant about a topic that is fully self-centered and had little to no relevance pertaining to the French Revolution.

This is complete and utter bull...crap. (Please excuse my weak word choice) I know too many people who exhibit this quality, and its sickening to say the least.

The fact that they want attention to be constantly focused solely on them is infuriating. 

"A Better Pain Scale" Hyperbole and a Half

I'm about a 10 when I have to encounter these certain people. A 10. That's pretty intense.

A message to these "self-centered" people:

The world does not revolve around you! It orbits the sun. The one thing in this solar-system of ours that provides life, heat, and nutrition. You are not God. You are not Jesus. You cannot be that important. So, please, I am begging you to stop replying to every statement as if it directly applies to you. I am begging you to stop trying to be liked, because frankly, you are secretly hated. 

I will offer you a dramatic applause, but in turn, can you shut up? For me?
