have you noticed people adopting the lesswrong terminology and inaccurately priding themselves on being "sane"?

I haven't noticed anyone doing that, but it does sound like the sort of thing people would do. This can hardly be avoided, though, unless we were to entirely decouple status from all superficial characteristics.
