Like Patrick Bateman in American Psycho, psychopaths can be intelligent and charming, while hiding a lack of empathy. So given their ability to manipulate others, how easy it is for you to spot one?
Self-professed psychopath Jacob Wells has revealed how he behaves in different situations and has listed questions that may help others identify whether they have any psychopathic traits - as well as recognise them in others.

The author doesn't know the difference? Wow.
The main differences between phsycopath and sociopath that I remember are:
phsycopath) Born that way, difficult to self-manage behavior and typically not good at a job.
sociopath) Caused by trauma in childhood and is well able to control it in work settings.
Both feel no sypathy and empathy.
Most politicians fall into the latter (sociopath).
The (D) after the name also indicates “Traitor.”
This test by the BBC measures Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy.
My result after two tests came up between Decidedly Dastardly and Moderately Nefarious.
No yawn. I guess I’m a psychopath.
I am:
Infrequently vile
You are infrequently vile â you mostly put others before yourself, though you may find occasions in which your dark side shines.
Or, you could’ve had more than enough coffee for the day, LOL! :)
I agree! The only ones I listen to are The White Album and Rubber Soul (my fave!)
Watch either 0bama, Hillary or Sanders give a speech.
Moderately Nefarious: Like Don Draper, you are moderately nefarious. You walk on the dark side of humanity, but your ruthless streak may just help you get ahead.
I watched the video up to 18:18 where they showed pics of Bush & Cheney. Sheesh!
Yeah, but it was made by a couple of Europeans. Bush and Cheney hatred is built-in. That doesn't make the other information in the video invalid.
And also, I'm not so big on Bush and Cheney any more.
Bush did us no favors, I'm convinced. He did immense damage to the Republican brand and to the cause of conservatism by refusing to fight for what is right in the court of public opinion, which in my view is one of the jobs of a Republican president. You can't just phone in sick on that, say "I'm not going to get down in the gutter with my opponents" and walk away.
For one thing, that leaves all your friends and supporters in the position that Michael Corleone feared in The Godfather: to have to come out of the men's room with nothing but your d*** in your hand.
That's how George Bush left things for us when his time in office was over.
And Cheney said publicly that he would back Hillary if Trump was the GOP nominee. That's all there is to be said about him, as far as I'm concerned.
“How To Spot A Psychopath”
World’s phoniest smile.
How to spot a psychopath:
I SO wanted to post a pic of my ex wife, but I believe her to be more Sociopath. Lost everything but my health but boy am I one lucky guy.
Infrequently vile. Hahaha
