Psychopaths tend to be charming and display a glacial calm. Neither of those qualities apply to anybody here :P

Nah, those are just the high-functioning psychopaths.

There are plenty of low-functioning psycopaths in the prison system who are neither charming nor calm. :(

And that's just the guards and prosecutors!  :P

Given that most of us are neither "charming and calm", nor in the prision system, I guess that makes us "middle functioning".  :D

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I'm mildly surprised at how much the casual insults feel like routine. You people have slacked off over the last few years.

Well fuck you too, buddy.

That said, I enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting it. :)

Yeah, we're all just mailing it in now.   :(

I was hoping there would be a test in this thread. :(

It's easy enough to find a psychopathy test on the internet.  Here's the first one on google:

A lot of these answers really changed for me during the last 6 months or so.

I still ended up with 1.9 on primary psychopathy and 2.6 on secondary psychopathy.

Grinning_Colossus

1.9, 2.3 for me. ~40th percentile for each.

What a load of BS.  It put me at the 91st percentile for rule-breaking, when anybody who knows me IRL knows I am anal about rules.

Pretty much the same here.  But, I think there's an explanation, at least in my case.  I tend to stay within the bounds of formal, written type rules.  I think this may be more about informal social rules.  Anyway, my results:
