Do you think that he tells these whoppers out of duper's delight?
It's a weird sort of duper's delight if he gets off on anyone with a 3 digit IQ immediately just calling him a retard and mocking him as a lolcow, while a vanishingly few really stupid people actually believe him. If it is, he might have some Dunning-Kruger version of it where he is getting delight out of duping people, even when he actually isn't.
It's possible in the environment of Twitter, where these people just screech to tranny jannies and anyone who contradicts their obvious, ridiculous lies just immediately gets banned, that weird people like this actually can get duper's delight, think John Walker Flynt.
I don't think it's really that, though, because the real delight of pulling off a con is
successfully doing it in some way that benefits you. This is sort of what separates the pathological liar from the liar. The liar benefits from the lie. The pathological liar lies with or without benefit.
It's sort of like the analysis of stupidity Cipolla did.
The bandit kind of person in the lower right quadrant harms others while helping himself.
Who does Fat Rick help? He may harm others but he also harms himself. This puts in the lower left quadrant of stupid people. He is a pathological liar, but he gains no benefit from his lies, the only effect of them is to make him look like a really dumb and less charming version of Commander McBragg.
And his lolsuits harm innocent people, like the defendants, who have done nothing wrong other than point out how stupid this fat fuck is.
He is in the category of losers, stupid people, people who harm themselves and others at the same time.
