Mine is finding cds or tapes of stuff I recorded on 4-track like 5 years ago and revelling in what a musical genius I am. I mean, come on, a somber lo-fi acoustic cover of "I Know What Boys Like"? WHAT THE FUCK!?!?

Also, FYI, masturbation isn't narcissistic unless you do it while staring in the mirror.

OK, admission time: I recorded that cover a year and a half ago, not five years ago. But it is pretty damn good.

Also: constantly replying to my own threads to make them seem really important.

laughing at my own posts

I hate listening to my singing (and if you get ILX vol 2, so will you), but I like the various instrumentals on my old tapes....

No one's replying to shit until you post the mp3, dude.

Reading my old diaries, and emails in my sentmail folder.

looking in the mirror (without the masturbation)

i mean, i'm sure i'd enjoy it with, too, but this has not been tried. Maybe tonight.

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 6 January 2005 14:58 (twenty years ago)

Listening to my own radio show.

wtf ken

pretending people actually read my blog

Surely everyone's had a wank in the mirror?

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:00 (twenty years ago)

I guess reading back old things I've written and thinking "wow, that was really good".

I should write more now, if only so I have stuff to be narcissicisistisicisitic about in the future.

I always got the impression this was quite commonplace.

Full length mirror vs just looking into your own face?

― Huk-L, Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:03 (twenty years ago)

Normal sized mirror positioned so you can see your own genitals?

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:05 (twenty years ago)

looking yourself in the eye...

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:05 (twenty years ago)

Magnifying make-up mirror so your kit looks YUGE!

― Huk-L, Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:05 (twenty years ago)

why would you look into your eyes?

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:06 (twenty years ago)

Huck knows what it's about.

i'm sure!

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:06 (twenty years ago)

I don't wank while reading back old reviews!

"Yeah, this Arcade Fire piece gets me all HOTTT!"

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:08 (twenty years ago)

Also: googling my band's name.

― n/a (Nick A.), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:10 (twenty years ago)

Actually, googling my own name is probably my MOST narcisisiticiaiticisiticisiticic.

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:12 (twenty years ago)

I even google various misspellings of my name! Vanity, thy name is Osquy Minarda!

― Huk-L, Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:16 (twenty years ago)

all of the above, except jody's - whose blog I read! - which I'd replace with checking my sitemeter

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:18 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, checking the sitemeter after I've posted new tunes. Neither of which I've done for awhile (but I'm really excited about how the new tracks sound so the cycle of narcissim can soon begin anew).

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:21 (twenty years ago)

Reviving my own thread sofr no reason other than to bask in my own glory.

WHy would you WANT to have a wank in a mirror?

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:23 (twenty years ago)

If you have to ask, lady...

― Huk-L, Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:24 (twenty years ago)

Googling Nick Southall's name.

― Bernard the Butler (Lynskey), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:37 (twenty years ago)

Hooray! I got another result!

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 6 January 2005 15:38 (twenty years ago)

WHy would you WANT to have a wank in a mirror?

To work on your "Oh" face, of course!

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 6 January 2005 16:05 (twenty years ago)

Wait, I don't have a pleasure that's narcissistic? When did that happen?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 6 January 2005 16:15 (twenty years ago)

ILE.
