    no, i am a clown. that is an entirely different personality trait, with different motivations.

    look up history. court jester. hopi clown. rodeo clown. like that. most clowns are good. except for the one in that steven king novel.

    but i did read somewhere that narcissists love to bully people and call them names like clown.

    Currently, the most widely used test to measure narcissim is the 40-item Narcissistic Personality Inventory. What are the odds of getting a narcissist to take that test? A professor at Indiana University and her colleagues sought out to address the challenges of this test and as a result came up with the Single-Item Narcissim Scale (SINS). A study was done to replicate the findings of SINS and the single question did indeed correlate positively with the 41-item NPI questionnaire. Another positive for SINS is that unlike the 41-item NPI which captures people with milder narcissistic traits, SINS singles out the "hard-line" narcissist.

    The single question is "Are you a narcissist"?

    True narcissists do not appear to view their narcissism as a bad thing. In fact, they are likely to be proud of it! Indeed, a number of recent studies have shown that narcissists often admit that they behave in explicitly narcissistic ways, that they happily describe themselves as arrogant, braggy, etc., and even strive to be more narcissistic! Narcissists also appear aware that other people view them less positively than they view themselves, yet simply don't care
    First, the scale asks respondents to identify with the trait as a noun “I am a narcissist,” rather than the adjective “I am narcissistic.” That gives narcissists the opportunity to stake their claim to a special identity that they know most people would reject—i.e., providing an affirmative response to the question gives them the opportunity to boost their ego
    Second, the one-item survey comes with a definition of narcissism: "Are you a 'narcissist'? The word ‘narcissist’ means egotistical, self-focused, and vain." If a more severe set of descriptive traits had been chosen (like entitled, exploitative, arrogant, not empathetic), it might have been too difficult for people to endorse the item./
    I was of the belief that a narcissist would never admit to being one. After reading this, it is my understanding that they have no problem claiming the title. The problem is that they don't see narcissism as being something bad...they are great and therefore deserve to be worshipped and admired!
