Wow you really tick all the boxes for an unsecure narcissist.

Why this compulsive need to compare yourself to others (myself in that case).

I couldn't give a damn that you uncovered a scam in your life. Cool story bro. Thank you for your service. The fact you need to tell everyone every chance you got shows what kind of a person you are.

What do you expect? To be thanked every day of your life for what you did? Grow up man.

You do things because of what you  believe in, not for others admiration or w/e.

I kinda feel pitty for you.
