"We can use this road to go back where we came from!"
"We left the city from the north and returned from the south!" (exactly what happened)
"Some cars have [our region]'s license numbers!" (some cars, indeed, did)
"[The guy who just outran us on the road]'s driving faster than us!"
And many others which I've forgotten due to their sheer silliness.
All of them - with confidence in voice, as if it's something to be definitely to speak of. The woman in question is fifty-plus years of age.
They are "babyish", and that's the point. Very crudely, narcissism can be defined by saying that the narcissist's consciousness stops growing (like neuronormal people's do) at around the mental age of six. As you may know, six-years-olds are very selfish, empathetically-bankrupt (yet, for neuronormal people) and prone to tantrums because their ego is yet bigger than other, inhibiting parts of personality. They'll yell out things they see that they deem partly important because they sincerely believe that it's only them who noticed it so far. Now, imagine an adult woman doing that for three hours while having no control over the steering wheel or any other part of an automobile she rides.
What it's like to be a narcissist passenger: 'When do I tell him the light's red?' 'Why is there no brake on my side? I'd be better at this than him.' " Turn left here...Op, not that road. Oh well, take the next right...Or not. Let's turn around." 'It's okay we're late. They'll wait for us. I hope...They better.' You've got a good point, ThatFanFicGuy. When I'm riding with my friends, I'm the narcissist and back-seat driver. I know I'm doing it, and I shouldn't be, but sometimes, I actually fear for my life. I hope I don't make as many inane statements as this woman did, but I probably do sometimes. But hey, I at least always have a good time, and I try to make up for it by apologizing and thanking my drivers excessively.
