What Herculean acts of self-delusion have you borne witness to?
Here's a prime example, from an online magazine called N*tD*ver (fill in the blanks yerself) in the profile of the founder:


"C***** G***** is a communication designer, new media pioneer, theorist, philosopher and founding partner of an upcoming idea production reLABEL' and has been threading the net more than 10 years.

She is recognized internationally as a new media industry driving force through her work as editor and founder of Netdiver a new media design portal and digital culture magazine broadcasting low noise and high fiber content online and beyond, since '98.

She is an unrelenting industry evangelist, activist and catalyst. Through creative coaching, collaborative projects, speaking engagements, writing articles and whatever ways made possible, she extends awareness of the new media industry.

As a communication designer, creativity is an area of research especially to stimulate creative thinking from theory to practice. She is an experienced designer with a far reaching vision."


One of my freelance mates has met her, and reports that she is "as mad as a spoon". He also relays further priceless quotes:


'What's difficult when you're a visionary, is
that you don't know you're a visionary.'

'If I had patented coloured
stripes 10 years ago, I would be a millionaire! Maybe I'll patent
coloured circles instead.'


Good grief.
