All nice threads around lately, time for some jerk threads for jerk users.

I am a self-proclaimed jerk.

Been called jerk sometimes.... :oops:

And I was told that since I am middle-eastern, that should automatically put me higher in the jerk hierarchy.

So tell about your jerk side (or what you think or told as your jerk side) of your character.

I'm a jerk. I'm overly-ordered in nearly every way imaginable, plan things intricately even when completely unnecessarily, and usually am unable to empathetic. I seem cold, logical, detached, and place an artificially high value on intelligence. When I am discussing or doing something I am good at, I don't accept errors and I don't take second opinions. I am a perfectionist, sometimes, and that is disliked by most acquaintances. Finally, I secretly despise people who destroy the English language by using poor grammar and spelling on the internet.

There's also a high probability I may have kicked your dog.

I've been referred to many times as an Arrogant Narcissistic Conceited Jerk (or ANCJ for the acronymists in the audience). I embrace the designation, as it carries a certain amount of truth to it -- maybe not as much as my detractors claim, but, still, nobody's perfect.

To be honest, I'm a bit of a grammar/spelling/punctuation Nazi -- people who put apostrophes in plurals should be shot, electrocuted, and fed to the sharks, not necessarily in that order, although the shark thing should probably come last.

I would cut the middleman out and feed them directly to the fish. They probably prefer their food live - and also you wouldn't wanna pass the electric current on to the shark's teeth now.

Speaking of apostrophication -- I saw a post on another site where the guy wrote something like "There are three dog's chewing on bone's out by the tree's next to the garbage can's."

I almost had me a stroke.

Despite the fact that I'm really nice, girls like to call me a jerk and punch me, so I don't know. They say its tough love usually :cry:

Your comma usage is atrocious.

"I'm a jerk. I'm overly-ordered in nearly every way imaginable, plan things intricately even when completely unnecessarily, and usually am unable to empathetic."

Doesn't need a comma. "Usually am unable to empathetic" is a dependent clause. Plus I think you missed some words.

And "When I am discussing or doing something I am good at, I don't accept errors and I don't take second opinions."

You need a comma before that "and". "I don't take second opinions" is an independent clause.

And to answer the question posed by the thread:

I like to think I'm more of an a**hole than just a jerk.
