Egocentrism (Meta)

Meta Prompt
The answer to the meta is a noun
I have a personal theory that the doctrine of Original Sin actually stems from the fact that we all view the world from our particular perspective. But some people take this to extremes. This puzzle will give you a chance to think fondly about any egocentrics you may know - as if they needed any more attention! The answer to the meta is a noun - very unspecific, I know. But if I've done it right, you should experience that lovely "click" we meta-junkies crave! Answer and explanation: https://www.xword-muggles.com/viewtopic.php?p=96135#p96135
Check out "The MOAT Mini Pack of Marching Bands" here: https://www.ephesusscroll.com/about/interest4.html. US$5 gets you 7 Marching Bands which, hard enough on their own, now contain metas too. And once again there's a mega-meta!
