'Heh. That one came out of a lady who would sell bread at the local bars (for you chicagoans out there, not the same bread lady who sold... special bread). I ended up getting a date with a girl who...
Lots of drinking. Nah, actually I'd say you should find someone in your aquaintance sphere who is more private then yourself, and try to draw them out of their shell. The advantage is that you...
China? That must have been pretty fun.
Oh, we all know they mean well.
Devoid's got a great point here. It's fine that you like someone, but you have to have them like you back, which means you have to figure out why they should like you. 1. They should like me...
I like this point. I forget how much of the sort of 'is it this or that' behavior comes across as creepy. You make a decision, either defer or take the shot, and go from there.
I like to think of the functions as the emotions they create. If I relate a strong feeling from Ne as excitement, I relate Si to nostalgia. I see something that looks like something I should know. I...
Eclecticism. We are creatures of ideas. In fact, inasmuch as morals/principles are ideas, we are oddly enough creatures of them as well. If we see an idea we like we look at it, turn it around a...
Some people just require good questions, or a pleasant joke to draw them out of their shells- although I find with shyer types, a bit of 'loudly projected' shyness can help, ie furtive glances, goofy...
You can't go wrong with an H cup size.
I think what set off my radar was that it sounded like this was a change for you. It's one thing to have lots of problems if you feel like you have a handle on them, and then go into a mode of...
This is my default mindset. I assume things are going to work out poorly in the future of my immediate plans and desires, but in the long term it'll be fine. I think people who get to know me very...
Married to the woman I met via internet dating. For me it was useful because it took me out of the friendzone by its very nature. Otherwise, I just fall into a sort of buddy routine, and I lose all...
I can promise you that starting with that end will go badly. Babies are meant to be nibbled toes and feet first, always keeping unsealed orifices pointed away from potentially offendable sense organs.
Got caught dipping your hand in the BS jar? That's always a tough one to get out of. I recommend self deprecation: I just ran some calculations to determine that yes, I am full of shit. Every...
Personally, I think religions are fine. It's communities that are strange and illogical.
-Did you change in a flash(<2 years) or slowly?(or always were like that) It may have happened slowly, but when I started to realize how people were seeing me (ie, in a positive light), it was a...
Sometimes, people see rules that really aren't there. Naturally, they believe that the aforementioned transgressions deserve some sort of comeuppance. Of course, the desires of the universe, and...
Generally speaking, the most talkative and extraverted person in a group is going to be considered a leader. If you toss in some decisiveness and a certain disregard of consequences, voila- instant...
You just care more about what they think. The really crappy part is that the more they like/respect you, the bigger and more uncomfortable the whole difference becomes because they care more about...
I think that spoiler is spot on. I've had a couple proper original thoughts in my life- almost everything is derivative somehow. I need someone who either has real goals, at which point massive...
I totes agree. It's hard to grasp the dynamic. I guess if your goal is to turn lemons to lemonade, you could accept the difference and treat it as a mysterious curiosity for exploration. This is...
Yup. That's maturity talking there. Especially that last line. we're going to say and do stupid things in perfectly innocent ways from time to time, and the other person has to actually be able to...
Lot's a of thinking about things. Like nonstop. Here's a poincare quote that partly points the way: I entered an omnibus to go to some place or other. At that moment when I put my foot on the...
Thank you for the mention, hoffman.507, I guess I could mention the general topics of thing I generally won't just spill for shock value, or things I only give up grudgingly: *Things that may or...
THe nuclear power field is pretty NT heavy. It's its own creature in many respects.
Most of them sort of have solutions. The solutions just haven't scaled up very well, or aren't cheaper then the current alternatives. The thing I wonder about them is how many of them are going...
Interesting that pot laces into a couple of things in your post. Are you feeling like a slacker because of it's use and the ideas it may give people about your social position, or are you feeling...
Emotional chameleonism is something lots of personalities can have happen. Its also something you can cause to other people, you just have to start at their setting and then ratchet it up bit by bit....
I'll get back to you. I'm still on a wiki walk I started earlier in the last decade.
That certainly does seem to be the case.
Oooh!!! I have one Stop whining and get a life Nah. Still absolute. If you're not actively injured, juvenile, senile, erectile, and you're not making an effort to forward your life, you...
I will say that nostalgia is often a bittersweet emotion for me, but I tend to like that sort of feeling, so nostalgia's all good.
A top loading washing machine without an agitator (the screw thing in the middle- pump, really) is actually a sideways front loader, or at least in operation, they're not that different. The...
I thought the more interesting part of this test was it potentially allows for culture blind IQ testing. Of course, that's not assuming there's some other correlation in effect here like smart...
You just fell in love, didn't you? Poor sap. Ya gotta hold something back. If you give all your love away you mightgo into your love bucket one day, and find there's none left for you.
https://si0.twimg.com/profile_images/2502739501/image.jpg Oh my God. It's fricking Cthulhu in that video. Do you understand the dark powers you're messing with?!?!?
Oh, and in keeping with the spirit of these things: 73565
Beautiful, Trollmaster. This is the perfect troll for the entp thread. I just can't help but admire you for it.
History professor. Talk about your dead end fields.
The wife's gotten a couple nibbles this way (she's in budget analysis). It's not as effective as doing it yourself, but it comes with the added benefit of feedback. Besides, just getting in contact...
I love it when someone pulls off Poe's law in a post.
I have a sneaky feeling this is like that point in a relationship where you still love your partner, but you no longer respect them, so you're just going through the motions; which of course means...
Ginger's got a good point, you can try structure for a little while and sample it all. It'll come to you eventually.
keeping religion OUT of the argument, and looking at things in a more matter of fact logical way, are you pro-choice or pro-life and why? I think you mean I don't want a debate on religion, but...
I always go with the flow. Eventually, I start using questions based off my free associations to push the conversation either towards someone else's interest (if I have some desire to be nice), or...
You're an entp, you will suffer from mistakes that make you look dumb. Achilles heel syndrom I call it- every plan and thing you think will have one inherent flaw you won't catch no matter how long...
That's an intriguing insight, zeep. Speaking overall, I guess that's why lots of writers like to come up with the endings first, and work their way back, but my normal writing is very stream of...
Nothing gets us going like someone throwing rules at us. Good job. Now, don't muck it up.
ENTP: You want to try this? Sure! ESTP: You want to try... Hey! That's my whole stash! ENTP: Well, we can solve this if we, bah, blah, blah.. Oh that's neat... Wait, what was I doing? ESTP:...'
