Fishmongers
What do fishmongers do? They selfish. HAHA! I know it's old but.
Yeah, anyway I just kinda think... if being selfish is a good or bad thing. I mean, yeah people will go "obviously it's a bad thing". Like, obviously, because that's what you were taught since young right? Like your mom will go "Oh don't be selfish! Share your toys with your siblings!" Obviously the hidden meaning of it is that being selfish is bad right? But do people grow up to be selfless? Nah. If you're really not selfish, you wouldn't even be studying, working or living. By studying you're taking up spaces in the school and that means lesser chance for others to study. By working, you're taking up work which other people need. By living you're using up scarce resources. Yeah. So selfish is not completely bad. Everyone is selfish. But that's only 2 stages of selfishness.
The last stage of selfishness is when you completely have no intention of helping or caring about anyone but yourself. I call them the Ultimates. All these Ultimates do is to talk about themselves. All the time. They completely don't ask about others and whenever their friends tell them about their troubles, the Ultimates will surely find a way to twist the conversation so that the conversation will be about them. They just can't bear to talk about other people cos it hurts their ears when they do so. They just can't bother to know what other people are doing because it takes up unnecessary space in their brains. They expect you to listen to their stories but not telling them cos they don't give a shit. Usually when you tell them about your day, they go "uh uh. Eh you know I..." Like, the words I and ME are the only pronouns they know. There is no YOU in it.
Please do your own classification. If you're at that ultimate stage then well, you're hopeless. You might think that being at the last stage is no big deal and that it doesn't harm you. Well, if it doesn't harm you then you're one lucky person born with charismatic good looks or you're good in bed. Serious. Why then would any sane person want to hang out with selfish and egoistic people? Selfish people are definitely hated by many people. Even if you have the brain and skills to be promoted to a higher social status, people other than gold-diggers and boot-lickers would still not want to be associated to you. At least I know I won't.
But then again, these selfish people wouldn't even notice if people are being hostile to them or if they're being hated. They're too selfish to care.
