I'm not evil but I also want to pour the oil into the ocean so that I can watch the sea rise higher and higher until the water reaches the sky and then the ocean overflows and it floods
idk. that sounds evil to me
I mean, this is basically what I said about why I think the evil personality is cool?
A lot of people talk about evil as having motivations, as opposed to being a purely destructive force, but I think the former characterization is pretty much correct. An evil person might want other people to suffer because they find it amusing, or because it makes them feel powerful and/or invulnerable, etc.
Evil is just another psychological quality like any other. The thing to remember is that it's just one of many, and they don't all cohere well. The "evil" part of my personality that wants to pour oil in the ocean has to balance itself off against my desire not to flood the ocean or other people's property (which I would want to avoid even if it would make my personal life a bit easier, because I like that stuff), my desire to not make people sad, my tendency to like to look cool in front of other people, etc.
