That’s how cats work. That’s how we satisfy our cat’s instincts for territory. And our own, for companionship.

We blend.

The narcissist sits in an empty movie theater. The rest of us are the movie they are directing up on the screen.

They are the only person in the world, miserable and frightened, but they have their movie.

That's how I see them, and that's how I summon pity for them. So I stay civilized, even professional.

Just, not necessarily, polite.
