Thanks to Barry for explaining so thoroughly why we
should consider him a narcissist, an obsessive, and
bat-shit crazy. We all knew this instinctively, but
it's nice to have it all laid out so clearly.
Just one comment:

A concept related to narcissism is the tendency to call
anyone who cannot be persuaded to agree with the narcissist
a liar for believing something else.
Actually, the definition of liar used around here is
one who says things he knows to be untrue with the intent
of deceiving others. Has nothing to do with having
different beliefs or opinions, it has to do with
deliberately misrepresenting facts.
Bat-shit crazy liars tend to tell meta-lies. They try to
defend their shaky self-image by maintaining that the
lies they tell are just opinions or just beliefs, even
that there are no such things as facts.
They think this gives them license to tell all the lies
they want without being known as a liar. But since nobody
sane would find it convincing, it pretty much defines
them as bat-shit crazy.
