Trust me, we're right, he's wrong. I doubt everyone I've been working out with at the gym for years are wrong and some nerd over the internet that doesn't even lift will somehow be right.hoihoisoi wrote:

i dont know why you keep bottling it up for. people don't judge you as hardly as you think - you dont have to put on a show to impress them. it won't make you feel any better.NeverDie wrote:
LOL are you retarded? You don't even lift. Ectomorph > Mesomorph > EndomorphEphemeral wrote:
i'm actually kind of concerned for you neverdie
i think you may want to visit a therapist. the thread has been all laughs up until a point, but i kind of realise now that you need serious help. had a look through some of my textbooks and i think you may be suffering from quite a pertinent case of narcissism personality disorder. i'm not joking here bro - i know you're hurting and it's tough, but you can hit me up if you want some assistance finding some self-help stuff to tide you through
seriously man, you don't have to keep putting up with it. i feel kind of bad for laughing at you now
let's not continue the conversation in this manner further. people are starting to get hurt now, that much is obvious.
EDIT: by the way, ectomorph does not mean what you think it means. you would be mesomorphs, not ectomorphs if you could continually eat without gaining weight or other negative detriment. stop using wikipedia for your definitions, jeez (source: Sheldon, Varieties of Human Physique)

Great, someone that doesn't even lift trying to correct ones that have been doing it for years haha. What'll happen next? It's called confidence bro, narcissism is blowing things out of proportion with no reasonable foundation. I feel bad for you being a virgin nerd that still hasn't gotten some till this day
But yeah, stop posting stupid information, you're making yourself look worse. Try actually doing some research. Any more information from me I'll start charging for. I'm not very patient when it comes to schooling dummies.

I admit I only read a few journal articles just then but your somatotype doesn't really determine if you can continually eat without constraint and not have any negative outcomes but more it determines how much fat you store and how much muscle you can build, among other things.
kind of. ectomorphs have tremendous trouble building substantial muscle mass, so if you have no problems acquiring muscle mass then you are a mesomorph through and through. your somatotype doesn't determine a whole lot, actually - like most concepts in psychology it is pretty much a collection of blanket observations. note that Sheldon's initial theory was only tested on a sample size of about 400 people from a university alone, which is not an ideal selection area for people of differing body type.Rantai wrote:

If anything an ectomorph fits that definition the closest? (the whole eat what you want part)

And yet it's a bit hard to deny that Mr. NeverDie doesn't have an inflated sense of self-importance and an extreme preoccupation with himself.Cuddlebun wrote:
Eph, just because Neverdie may be acting like a dick in your eyes does not mean he is suffering a mental disorder. I think you have discovered that being a psychology major leads you to diagnosing everyone with something (my brother went through the same phase his first few higher level psychology classes and tried to diagnose me with several different things) but holy crap that was one of the most obnoxious well-meaning series of posts I think I've read in a while.

Hmm, Mr NeverDie has a very healthy ego.. however this doesn't give Mr NeverDie the right to look down on others. It would be more useful for everybody if he offered his wisdom in a non hostile manner.Jarby wrote:

Bragging about your "superior genes" is not a sign of a healthy ego; it's a sign of a narcissist. There's a difference between having confidence and making sure everybody knows how superior you are.Soly wrote:

In my opinion that's actually a healthy thing. The insults are the only let down as I stated.Ekaru wrote:

the mindset of superiority inherently hampers progress and development since if you think you're superior or better than a particular thing, what can possibly drive you to improve yourself further since you're already there?Soly wrote:

You are allowed to feel superior in your particular area of expertise. Rather than people getting jealous and bitter about it they should feel happy for said person or rather use said person as a source of inspiration. When it starts getting into the area of criticising others then you can put your foot down. Because as we can see from this thread, this is what happens. Nothing is solved and it just becomes a waste of time, not to mention all the useful information ends up being ignored in favor of child like retaliation.Ephemeral wrote:
