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'm veggie but just get embarrassed when I encounter a particularly vocal one at any kind of gathering who then proceeds to bore me and everyone else within earshot about how great and right they are. It's just choosing to eat one thing and not another, you fucking dullard, it's not some kind of zany lifestyle choice or joining a club for special people.

Some of them do act pretty special though.
I mean, really really special.

Right.
You eat what you want to eat, I'll do the same; neither one of us needs to try to make the other feel shame for their choice and we are done.
I wish it were always so easily resolved. What's next?

Likewise.
Oddly enough I sit opposite a vocal woman at work who goes on about animal welfare, PETA and vegetarianism... despite not being one. Eh? She says she would be if it weren't for her love of sausages.
The man on the otherside, however, is a meat-lover but we happily swap veggie recipes as his wife is a lettuce muncher. Introduced me to Paneer cheese. Yum!
