Doggedly searching for the crux of the biscuit.
Over at Unfogged, we were talking about personality disorders and I felt these two comments were worth highlighting.
Eventually, "being an asshole" will itself become a medical condition, which would be a good thing if there were only a treatment for it.
Scene from an Assholes Anonymous meeting.
"Hello, my name is Rob, and I am an asshole."
Rest of the room: "Fuck you, Rob."
Rob: "Fuck you, everyone. I'm unrepentant but I want to stop being an asshole so everyone will stop blaming me for their stupidity."
I laughed at Ned's comment but without fully understanding the punch line. Why does Rob think that his being an asshole allows other people to blame him for their stupidity? I hate it when I don't get these obviously funny jokes...

But then I'd probably have to have the title removed from my business card.

So an AA-lanon would not be too far behind, then?
