"No."
"Errr... what? C me..."

Happyfeets has left the group.
My first and only group with him.

Uh, no, this is false. If I did say something
along those lines then it's because you were someone who was spamming me for Clarity before I grouped with you and I tried to make a joke about it when we did group and you were simply too daft/impatient to grasp the humor.
Apologies for any miscommunication on my end if that was the problem, but perhaps you should be more open to irony, satire, and all the other forms of oblique humor that people will use.

I make him an only child; problems in school so removed early and home-schooled up until college, then drifted through late-teens/20s. Parents are probably overachievers, put a lot of hopes/aspirations on him: explains the narcissism. They're also emotionally distant. Makes Zur constantly thirsty for attention; which possibly explains why he acts so bizarrely and keep so much attention on himself.

I'm not an only child and I've never been home-schooled or had problems in school (I started college as a Sophomore because of all the college-credit classes I took in High School, in fact) and I've never been on psych meds.
Well, actually, I'll have to take that last part back, but with a major caveat. I was on medication for anxiety once because my partner died. If something like that ever happens to you, maybe you'll find yourself in a similar state of disarray. I immediately stopped taking the medication after the very first time I used it, though, because I disliked the reaction it had. Instead, I taught myself force of will to overcome the situation and control my mind and body.
I'm possibly thirsty for attention, but that's more about wanting to share my ideas with regards to something I am passionate about (and I have many interests in life) than it is about needing constant adoration. I also really love analyzing, creativity, learning, and debating. This plays into why I make lengthy posts and constantly argue about everything - because I want to be constantly growing as a person and seeing other perspectives and sharing my perspectives with those who may be less knowledgeable. I am a perfectionist and that is also probably annoying to some people. Admittedly, I used to be too extreme about it in real life interactions but I've learned to curb it.
Although, the realms of society that I take part in are extremely competitive (the film industry, Olympic-level ice skating) and thus it's actually a requirement to be a perfectionist and have at least a little bit of an ego on display. Greatness is not achieved without pushing yourself and analyzing how to do something better.
