Generally speaking, "you" is a completely fine topic, since you are central to your own life so much, and you are so relevant to yourself. When telling stories, it is easier to talk about oneself than others, since you have so many stories to choose from; you get to prune all the boring stories way, exempli gratia like you got up, ate cereal, and dookied twice today, and can instead choose from hopefully a plethora of way more interesting things, like you got a new tier of MMO gear, you wrote a story of which you are proud, or something crazy happened at work with you and a customer. It is easier to listen to other people if they also talk about you, since again, you are interesting to yourself and if someone is talking about you, you must be interesting to them, so you are sharing an interest (hint: you).

Chemical, I find you a very cool person with whom I had more interactions, and I am sorry I have not pursued this option further many a time. I think your having traveled across the globe is neat, I have heard you are a blast in life to be around, and you definitely bring life to the forum. There is nothing wrong with drinking unless taken to harmful excess, and I suspect you are not there yet. And were we group-discussing and -agreeing on potential knights, you would stay on my roster of potentials through many of the cuts (and perhaps to the end). It is good to be known, talked about, and liked, and so there you are; you have it all from one quarter.

I am insufferably in love with myself and others should always be too, and I am cross when there is disagreement on this non-issue. I will occasionally ctrl+f my name if I think a topic should have included me already, but beyond that, I try to abstain from too much self-adulation, as I understand a good way to find friends is to listen to them talk about themselves and then try to relate their feelings and experiences with mine, so we can share something. I think good relationships, maintaining or finding them, come before my own vainglory because my super-cool life is more fun that way.
