Diplomats INFJ

Quiet and mystical, yet very inspiring and tireless idealists.

'A stronger constitution. I'm always in pain. Low-level and not life debilitating, but it's a drag to have weak knees, snapping wrists, overworked teeth, etc. That's kind of antithetical to an...

Do you know this person well? If you don't, just let some time pass. If you do, then let a lot of time pass. INFJ's tend to get more hurt by repeat offenses than one-off instances. Also, INFJ's...

Dusk At Cubist Castle!! Great record, nowhere_man. I grew up in the 80's and my brother and cousins were older, so I absorbed all that stuff. Aside from Nintendo music, the Unsolved Mysteries...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuE13-jAkrE From Robert Altman's The Company. Although the song is REALLY heartwrenching when it was used in Twin Peaks.

I would love to move back to SoCal so much. I grew up in Simi Valley (I know, not much there, but still... a lot of good memories). But I have a pretty good job where I'm at, so the risk of moving...

What happens after some crosses the line? Bye-bye. No explanations, no big scenes, just a deliberate cold shoulder forever. Wish I wasn't like this, but it is effective.

Yes, I've always had an old soul. Unfortunately, at 28, I also have old bones, now. Seriously, enjoy your flexibility while you still have it, kids. But I was always mature in some ways, but way...

I'm not. Or at least, not anymore. But if I like someone, which is most people I'm around, I'll do things for them invisibly. I'm happy when I can make someone else's life just a little bit more...

Of course. When I get drunk, I'm livelier, more outgoing, and my typically dry humor becomes more emphatic. Getting drunk is actually great for me socially, because though I may seem like I've...

Well, here's the slighlty shorter version of the long story I had just written-and-erased... I was raised Christian since birth. Went to my denomination's schools until college. And all...

I'm an ergomaniac. Seriously, just give me something to believe in and I'll give my 110% on the clock. But if I don't like the job... I'll still work hard, but with more curse words.

One thing I've noticed about a lot of INFJ's is frequently placing the Song Title before the Artist when making lists. That has always piqued my curiousity. I recently reset my iTunes, thus the...

3) Withdrawn, retiring, dreamy, hardheaded, reserved 6) Stingy, unemotional, overly conventional 2 & 4 are on the trails, but I'm typically non-conforming. Thus when I withdraw my...

All genres are good. The majority of artists in EVERY genre, however, are not. To me, the Golden Age of Hip-Hop (1986-1993) was the most fascinating and fastest evolving musical revolution of any...

I only like the early stuff. Late Talk Talk, Bark Psychosis, and especially Disco Inferno. I liked that 20 minute Kraut Rock song Tortoise did, too. But for the most part, post-rock is too...

That's a good record. Amazing what a portable Walkman recorder is capable of when the singer behind it blends with the field recording. I actually do make music. As far as genres go, my approach...

Emo: I'm mostly a Revolution Summer guy. Rites Of Spring, Embrace, One Last Wish, you know... the bands that all had the same members. But up to Indian Summer, Moss Icon, early 90's stuff is good....

Daniel Johnston - 1990 (Johnston is bipolar) Beach Boys - Smile (the record label didn't even release it because it was too bizarre) Phil Spector - Back To Mono compilation (he would pull guns on...

Rowland S. Howard circa 1980 is one of my guitar heroes. What he does with the MXR Blue Box... wow. - I don't really take care of my old Honda Accord and dress rather anonymously (I don't care...

That's the thing with some INFJ's. If you know them, they'll be touchy-feely. If you don't know them, they may be cold. Personally, I'm frigid around strangers. Acting callused is kind of like...

Yes, I blackout all the time. As long as I stay awake, it's not a problem. Because I did fall asleep behind the wheel once. It's funny in retrospect. I was in my car, waiting for the stop...

When I was younger (and more of an INFP) I suffered from a bad case of asthma. I'd have to go to the hospital and get medicated every few weeks/months. A nervous disposition may have contributed to...

I grew up on video games, but I'm not as devoted as I was as a kid. I still like RPG's, though. They combine two things I like: a long narrative and work. It's like reading a book, but you have to...

I used to be big on making mix tapes and CD's. But everyone has iPod's now, so I don't really do it anymore. Also, when I started doing a radio show, it really broadened the vehicle for sharing my...

For sure. At least the natural ones. If they tax the hell out of them, it would help the country's economy. By making stuff legal, it probably wouldn't increase the amount of users too much. ...

I make a monthly comic series, but the focus is less on technical skill and more on satirical content. I mean, I use MS Paint to make the illustrations. I'm more of a Robert Smigel than a Pablo...

I wrote this song on the airplane yesterday, so it's not really hammered out and still a bit nonsensical. But more and more, I've been writing songs inspired by astrological alignments. Surely,...

You are what you love. But if you're not careful, you'll become what you hate. I have the same fear, too. Sadly, I often go down those paths. Sometimes it's not so bad, though (more...

Yes, I'm a fan of Bones. Perhaps it's my dominant F, but I enjoy it more for the characters rather than the mystery elements (but only by a little). I haven't seen the first three seasons, though,...

RESERVE 63% aggressive, 44% instrumental, 74% sophistication and 62% weird! Reserve was a completely brilliant C86 band which never quite got listened to, probably because none of their stuff...

I used to put this on mix tapes for friends. It just makes me laugh so much. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoTUXBbaFjE

Neutral Good or Chaotic Good.

I liked Whiskeytown and the first few solo albums. Especially Pneumonia. I love the messages he leaves on people's answering machines.

I think about this all the time. What makes art objectively great? What attributes does it need in order to be canonized? While not an expert or critic (critics are friendless a-holes), I've...

The industry isn't going to change, which is why the definition of successful has been changing. Most of the artists who were huge in the 90's are either a) bankrupt or b) in reality shows. They...

Witty camping out in absurd-land. And I have to self-censor myself because I can go off on Chappelle-like streaks (as far as making accurate but painful observations about my own race). But if...

Star Control II!!!!

Radiohead are a gateway drug that can lead to more experimental music. When they burst out with Creep, they were destined to be a one-hit wonder. But they kept experimenting and gained a cult...

Probably doesn't correlate to my type, but when I was young and playing Gold Box AD&D games, I preferred Fighter-class types, with a slight preference of speed/dexterity > strength. Quick strikes.

Maybe people think you're too cool, and thus, intimidating. Excluded because you're perceived as elite? Everyone in my social groups think I'm the coolest of the bunch. But really, I'm just...

Twin Peaks Freaks & Geeks Arrested Development Chappelle's Show Inside The NBA

Using a guitar and germanium fuzz pedal to pick up Russian radio stations is way fun!

I love Wire. Well, at least the first three records. They were one of the first bands I Napster'd back in the day. I'm a little more 154 than Chairs Missing. It's just so moody and mysterious. ...

Well, I'm only 48% P/52% J, so not sure how that's going to skew my answer. The way I approach sex reflects the way I play basketball. I'm a defensive specialist (I slow down the game), making it...

2006: One of the best years of my life... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y274/phillipileto/INFJEyes.jpg 2009: 2007-2009 were kind of bad......

No it's true. God Help The Girl just ain't that good. And the Byrds really are heavenly. The thing I like about Primal Scream is that every release is usually radically different (at least until...

(500) Days Of Summer. It felt like I've seen that film before... oh yeah, that's right. It was called My Reality circa 2006. Jeez.

Cool, thanks Alice!! The only song I still had was Velocity Girl because I love early Byrdsy Primal Scream. I like TBWTAS, but I love B&S best when Stuart was the reluctant dictator. ...

Tigermilk and IYFS are where it's at, son!! Do you have the C86 cassette comp? I haven't heard that in years.

Hmm, well I'm pretty much a recluse these days, so when I do actually go out into the world, I pass as an extrovert because I'm legitimately thrilled to receive a dose of human contact in my life. A...'
