Inflated Self-Importance
Amorous Badger asks: Tell us tales of people who have a high opinion of themselves. Jumped-up officials, the mad old bloke who runs the Neighbourhood Watch like it's a military operation, Colonel Blimps, pompous bastards and people stuck up their own arse.

I used to think this but then
I was informed that the mum of someone I know is one, so that stopped that kind of nonsense.
But seriously, I am one of the normal people and I would not be calling for an appointment unless my testicle was about to explode, thereby puncturing my vital organs with ball-shrapnel. However a lot of people do ring up because of non-existent symptoms imagined up after reading an online medical journal.
For example, after a heavy night on the booze my symptoms almost completely match up with a diagnosis of heavy metal poisoning (well almost, depends if I've had Iron Maiden on th' neet before).
Plus who knows how many Munchausens's are at loose.
