Oh yes, very funny. I think most people here can see that you are the narcissist.

Nice composition, processing and general thought, bruh. Who do you think you are? 
Remember, I have never claimed my images are good. You on the other hand, seem to think we are on the same low level. Sorry. We're not.

Edit: And to everybody else; I apologize for derailing the thread, but this guy is just too much. I'll ignore him from now on, I promise. 
Out of respect to the OP, since he asked, I was not going to reply anymore, but here you are aren't you?
I do have to say that you seem to be as knowledgeable about personality disorders as you are about what makes a picture great. I made the statement that we are about equally bad at photography. You said you are better. A narcissist would not claim to be equal to another. They claim to be better. That is exactly what you did.
And how am I too much? This is the M4/3 sub forum. What was the reason for your "chime in" with your condescending reply about M4/3? What was helpful about your post? What did it support? Listen, there is nothing wrong with being a gear head and as it has been said above, artistically, it doesn't matter what format you are using. Technically, of course a larger sensor is "better" - we all know that, but using FF gear isn't going to transform your snap shots in to work of art. You yourself can clearly see it in your Flickr feed. It isn't a secret.
Color preference - you like sony colors, while many (including real photographers) don't like sony colors. Who really cares. The issue is the way your posts are written. Like just because you don't like Olympus colors, it doesn't mean that they are indeed worse than sony's. You opinion is just that. An opinion. No more, no less. Everyone has an opinion. But narcissists think that everyone else is wrong and they are right. You fit that profile perfectly. As it has been shown, when you don't know what camera took a particular picture, people can't "tell". Some may guess right but that is about it.
On my picture that you posted a link to - first and foremost, no matter what you or anyone think of that snap, it has a meaning for us. They are snaps, I am the king of snaps and they serve a purpose (for us), just like your snaps. Not one of your photos that I have seen could hold my attention for more than a split second. "and" here we go again, I guess you think that your shots on your photo stream are something special, otherwise why would you go out of your way and find a shot of mine that is clearly a pure snap?
Why haven't you posted a picture to back your claim? Where are those special colors? I have suggested several times, look at ANY of BobbyTan's photos and show me a shot from your camera that has better colors. Conveniently, you continue to ignore THAT. If you make outrages claims, expect somebody to call you on your BS. That doesn't mean that THAT person is "TOO MUCH" - it simply means that you have been caught and you don't like it. Let your pictures do the talking. Unfortunately for you, so far all they can do is mumble.
As I have said many times over the years, I don't have an ounce of creativity in my body unfortunately. But looking at your photographs, I will put my what I would consider "better" shots against yours any time. Any time.
Now just to balance things out, here is another snap shot from me - this one, for some weird reason, Flickr thought was good enough to be on their front page for about 4 or 5 days when it was uploaded initially.
