I found this page on wikipedia, there's probably a better source for it, but I still found it interesting and somewhat accurate:

If this group thought they were superior (myself included) you'd want to add this also:

 Though mass hysteria is more like Collective HPD than NPD. Like with the swine flu. Just put the name of an animal in front of the word "flu" and everyone thinks they're going to die from a deadly epidemic. When in reality, its still just the flu.

I hardly doubt we are this type of group.

Anonymous on the other hand... I think any movement should have this pride in group though.

The Narcissistic Personality Inventory found here: http://psychcentral.com/quizzes/narcissistic.htm Is very similar to what you posted.

I took the test for something to do...

I know we're not this type of group Luna. It's just one of the things I've been thinking about/looking up. Between boredom and finding things that show me that I'm not the only one fed up and frustrated with people. I'm a misanthrope.
