I find Linus to be an odd mix of earnest and smarmy.

    Its narcissism.

    The Narcissist’s Prayer (by Dayna Craig)

    That didn’t happen. And if it did, it wasn’t that bad. And if it was, that’s not a big deal. And if it is, that’s not my fault. And if it was, I didn’t mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

    Read that, then re-read his response to GN.
