In today’s age of Reality TV and Social Media it seems that there’s never been a better time to be an Egoist. And while a good self image is important, here are ten signs that it is, in fact, all about you.

10 - Every time you meet a war veteran you tell them that you bought Army Surplus boots once
9 - You have acceptance speeches ready in case you win an Oscar, an Emmy or a Nobel Prize
8 - Although you don’t sing or play an instrument, you also have your Grammy Award acceptance speech ready
7 - You would be a Secret Agent, but you wouldn’t want to keep it a secret
6 - You wear a white dress to EVERY wedding
5 - Drew Barrymore’s character in E.T looked a lot like you as a kid. What was Spielberg trying to say?
4 - The ER nurse was so concerned with your brother’s wound that she barely acknowledged you. That bitch!
3 - You would rescue a puppy from a burning building…as long as someone is watching
2 - When dieting, you unplug the ice cream freezer in the Super Market
1 - If you think this list is about you, it’s not. But that’s what I’m talking about!!!

And there’s no better time to pit the dog up against co-host Christine Meehan in another edition of The Comedy Point Battle of the Sexes.

The debate on which gender is superior is one that you can have for eternity, or at least when your girlfriend isn’t listening. One sex is complex, sensitive and nurturing and the other can lift heavy things. But barring the task of carrying a refrigerator, which gender is Better?

We’ll try to find out tomorrow when SOUL Joel hosts a test of wits between two diplomats for their respective genders.

Christine can do a handstand but Maddog is an encyclopedia.

Christine has lived in Spain but Maddog has lived in Vegas.

Hopefully tonight’s competition will be able to prove a winner between the two competitors and in turn the two genders of the human race.
