Self-righteouness - a feeling of smug moral superiority derived from a sense that one's beliefs, actions, or affiliations are of greater virtue than those of the average person
Hubris - overbearing pride or presumption
For some reason, these two words have been tumbling around in my mind today.
Edit: some more words spinning around my brain -
Irony (verbal) - disparity of expression and intention: when a speaker says one thing but means another
Irony (situational) - disparity of intention and result: when the result of an action is contrary to the desired or expected effect
Hypocrisy - the act of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, feelings, qualities or standards that one does not actually have. Hypocrisy typically comes from a desire to mask actual motives or feelings, or from a person's inability to conform to standards they espouse.
Maybe my subconscious is trying to tell me something.
Edit: I think my subconscious is definitely yelling at me to get it.
I think I get the message.
Edit: Yes, I got it.
