the svengalli persona: everything is an ironic joke because it says so.
that kind is a groomer mind who has no friends.
the people around him he thinks of as his lessers, his thralls, whom he has minionized.
nothing they ever say can be taken seriously. Everything is always stated as if it's an ironic joke.
they will take the biggest piece and they will not share or give back if they took too much.
they will borrow but they won't pay you back.
they always leave their wallet at home.
they always have some tragedy that recenty happened if they need an excuse to not participate.
basically a person like this is poison to have in your life.
