Feel free to stroke your massive ego here. Don't hold back, let 'er rip. You're perfect, you know it. You're infallible. Doesn't that feel good... You know it does. Please don't stop. You're so good. I can't believe they let lesser human beings than you up on this mountain. Maybe if you put down more people you'll get the whole mountain to your self. Keep it up... Don't stop.... cuz you feel so superior, so so superior....
