Warning against paranoia

Note to self: Even if you fit a given description, there's no reason to assume that the person giving it is talking about you.

Then the principle still applies, it just becomes a warning against vanity. :)

Not that paranoia is not occasionally a form of vanity - it's hard to be paranoid when you're convinced you're of no interest to the rest of the world.
