Sometimes I worry I'm a psychopath
I think the fact that you worry you are proves that you aren't.

Woah!

I just checked Good Old Games (GoG.com) and found I can get Deus EX GOTY for $4! I think I might grab that tomorrow.
GET IT!!!!!

My only concern is if it'll work on my laptop. Onboard graphics ain't exactly good for gaming. Still, Morrowind works so I think it should be ok...

The clinical definition of psychopathia is one unable to empathize with others due to the way the brain processes information. It can be either a result of emotional or physical trauma, or genetic predisposition.
Psychopaths and sociopaths aren't necessarily 'insane' or even necessarily dangerous. However many do develop a superiority complex as they rarely if never feel guilt, shame, or remorse for violating rules, manipulating others, et cetera.
Due to their inability to empathize, they often live solitary, albeit gregarious lives in which their circle of Friends' are typically sycophants to reinforce the narcissistic personalities they often develop. They tend to actively seek out easily manipuable people with low self-esteem and try to make them rely on their approval, especially when seeking marital partners.
These traits, ironically enough are usually deemed 'antisocial', however antisocial people will be one of the most socially charming folks you'll meet. They tend to be attracted to jobs that afford them great deals of power over people, CEO's, politicians, law enforcement, so forth and so on.
The opposite end of this spectrum, is Empathic. Empathy is the ability to recognize and 'feel' what the other person is feeling, via the mirror neurons in the brain that exist solely for the purpose of detecting the emotional states of others, and cannot tell the difference between your emotional state and others.
Often, loners, wallflowers, drug addicts, depressed people, tend to be the most empathic. Those who are largely unaware of this trait within themselves, naturally pick up the moods of others without consciously realizing it. They can be misinterpreted as being depressed, bipolar, moody, overly joyful...
Highly empathic people are often the quickly worn out when dealing with people and begin to seek solitude more and more without fully realizing the motivation for it.

Well, that rules me out as a psychopath. I think I'm at completely the wrong end of the spectrum for it...
That would explain a great deal...
