Sorry but just thought I'd spark off this discussion. Anyonelse really annoyed at people who label themselves as crazy, mad or whatever kind of 'look at me' thing they think of at the time?

Tip to anyone thinking this way : If you think you're mad, you probably arent.

I'm just getting quite tired of hearing people that I meet say this kind of thing, whether it be at work, uni or whatever...

Grumpy bastard moments ftw!

Mad as in angry or insane?

As i've always kept a firm line between mad and looney.

I'm a bit odd at times, but never would call myself mad.

What i've come to say is, madness is a decease, but a madman knows his potential.

Also can throw this one: A true psychopath knows he has potential to be one.

I think he means its annoying to hear people say it because they are literally "boasting" that they are mad/crazy and think its a good thing to boast about.

I agree with this - my group of friends in college loved this stuff and had an obsession with being "random". 99% of the "random" stuff they came out with involved mongoose(plural of!) however.

If you can, watch a channel 4 program called "Egomania". Its good.

I'm well mad I am.

I don't wash my hands before eating.
I swim within 1 hour of lunch.
I'm mad I wear my socks inside out.
I'm mental I would stroke a spider.
I'm crazy when I go fishing I won't come home until I've caught something!

People who are mental/mad/insane, usually think they are normal.

Claiming that you are mad/insane is indeed a common way for people to seek attention that I, too, find mildly tiresome by now. I wish they'd start something new, like; "Hey look at me, I'm mythomaniac!"

People who label themselves as random are worse.

LOLI'm the randomest gRHGEROFLOLZ. Completely defy's the point of random.

Nymphomaniac might get 'em a bit more attention.

Yeah, but Mythomaniac would probably be refreshingly closer to the truth. :)

I'm actually mad :) I have a certificate and everything. Well, for a given value of "mad" I guess...
