While I strongly oppose the use of the word AAPTard for its demeaning implications, here is a funny thing i found online! Here is observation that gives you answer of Who is an Aaptard? or Who are Aaptards A patient suffering from delusional disorder grandiose type. The following can indicate a delusion:[9] 1. The patient expresses an idea or belief with unusual persistence or force. 2. That idea appears to an undue influence on the patients life, and the way of life is often altered to an inexplicable extent. 3. Despite his/her profound conviction, there is often a quality of secretiveness or suspicion when the patient is questioned about it. 4. The individual tends to be humorless and oversensitive, especially about the belief. 5. There is a quality of centrality: no matter how unlikely it is that these strange things are happening to him, the patient accepts them relatively unquestioningly. 6. An attempt to contradict the belief is likely to arouse an inappropriately strong emotional reaction, often with irritability and hostility. 7. The belief is, at the least, unlikely, and out of keeping with the patients social, cultural and religious background. 8. The patient is emotionally over-invested in the idea and it overwhelms other elements of their psyche. 9. The delusion, if acted out, often leads to behaviors which are abnormal and/or out of character, although perhaps understandable in the light of the delusional beliefs. 10. Individuals who know the patient observe that the belief and behavior are uncharacteristic and alien. 11. Grandiose type: delusion of inflated worth, power, knowledge, identity or believes himself/herself to be a famous person, claiming the actual person is an impostor or an impersonator.
