Poetic, kind and altruistic people, always eager to help a good cause.

'Sometimes I find myself wondering what empathy and compassion really is; what it is and what it means, and also perhaps how it relates to peoples' sense of justice. Never moreso than when I see a...

Hahahah, that's awesome, thanks for that, you put a smile on my face on a fairly strange evening. Didn't even know that was a thing. And the lyrics are some true shit! I still never bothered to...

I've lost count of the number of RPGs I've played by now, they are my bread and butter. My favourites would probably have to be anything done by Tetsuya Takahashi (the Xeno titles), Shadow Hearts...

Needless antagonism. Bigotry. Irrational ideologues. Manipulators and the dishonest, sociopathic or otherwise. Lack of self-awareness. Finding joy in the suffering of others. The limited degree to...

Dear new colleague, I'm very grateful for your presence on the team here. Despite your occasional tendency to go off on tangents, and sometimes needing to just slow the hell down and take a more...

Okay, so I'm back home and I finally managed to upload a couple of videos. Took me a while because I don't have an NVENC-capable GPU (it's only a GTX580 as I built it a little more than 4 years...

I'll just copy what I said in the Trends forum: I can't believe it exploded in popularity so quickly. I even had German colleagues talk to me about it today! It seems like it has a lot of...

I know exactly what this quiz is, but I respect your desire to survey. Yes, I am, and I scored 21 (or 22 depending on one of my answers). Will you be publishing the results anywhere after a time?...

Compressing the quotes with spoilers, quelle bonne idée D: Hahaha, sorry about that! I'm actually on holiday at the moment, posting from my phone, so cross-referencing things is kind of awkward -...

Ooh, this thread. Jedi Knight (as in, Dark Forces 2) was a pretty big part of my mid-childhood. I remember playing it to death on the MSN Gaming Zone. NF Sabers on BGJ, FF Guns at Oasis... fun...

If going by types, I would say ISTJ. I've had two or three ISTJ friends and they were all excellent at their jobs - dedicated, thorough and conscientious even when other members on their team were...

Wow, my jaw is positively gaping at some of these responses, lol. It doesn't even seem like there's any consistent pattern as to who turned out which way. 1.) What's your MBTI type? INFP 2.)...

What do I think about it? I think it's hilarious! If not mildly disconcerting that individuals with such an, ahh... powerful imagination exist. Seriously, read their 'About Us' section. It's like...

This is not something I really understand. The whole, I'm not acting as myself stuff. I was in your position once before too, but I was worried in a different way. I knew I could never act out of...

I love the fact that there are so many night owls here! I'm surrounded by early risers and go-getters in almost all of my jobs so I burst out laughing seeing the results here. I'm not alone! That...

Cooking is one of those things that I really should do more of / get into more, but I've only ever dabbled for short stints at a time. I enjoy good food (in fact the simple pleasures are some of the...

If you don't see the problem here then I don't know what to say. I'm starting to think perhaps she wasn't overreacting after all.

That's a surprisingly difficult question. I can't speak for anyone else, but I know that once I feel that kind of kinship with another person, once there is a mutual connection that I know is...

I'm sorry because it's late right now, plus I'm incredibly tired and probably won't give you the articulate and considered response you probably deserve for a post like this. But in all honesty, I...

How curious. I relate to all descriptions quite well, actually. Most of my life I was probably on the border between calm and... border, though in recent years have seen me regress towards the...

With all due respect, what were you hoping for when posting this thread? Only sympathy and validation? In my opinion, yes, the police report was quite excessive, but you're still not without fault...

For a start, they wouldn't be an it, they would be themselves. He or she, to use gender pronouns. A semantic difference perhaps, but also an important one I feel, and quite indicative of mindset in...

Most people are generally surprised to find out that I'm an INFP, because they either have a poor grasp on what an NF actually is and/or because I don't openly advertise the 'F' and am pretty...

For the VGM lovers out there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KX9L6YkA78 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfuoUv5YMN0 And because this woman has one of the most enchanting voices I've...

This is actually an interesting question. I'm seriously wracking my brain here. Bearing in mind most of the media I've tended to consume in recent years has been more anime and videogames than films...

Oh wow, this post is fucking amazing. So very, very accurate in a general sense. Even the ISFJ one describes my mother's ill-fated romantic liaisons to a tee. And a certain ENFP car-crash...

Sometimes I really hate not living on my own. Why is it that I'm subject to scrutiny by my mother's romantic partners? What the fuck business is it of theirs, what does it have to do with her, and if...

I dislike relying overmuch on any outside substance to influence my state of consciousness on personal grounds, so that's an automatic no from me. I have tried it before, though. A couple of times...

Hmm... if anyone out there would be willing to suffer the dubious pleasure of my company, I'd be only too happy to turn up to one of these things. I'm pretty open to going anywhere, at any time, more...

Well, seeing as this does double as the stream of consciousness thread: I ordered Spaghetti Bolognese in a restaurant the other day, and was quite surprised that it turned out to be an oilier, but...

I agree with the stereotype insofar as it is a stereotype. I wouldn't put too much stock in taking it literally, because the more two-dimensional descriptions read like they weren't written by INFPs...

Hmm... when I like someone, signs that are externally visible? - I spend a lot of time with them or around them. Even in otherwise innocuous situations, just being together is compelling enough. ...

Those are very different questions... but I'll answer :) What made you sure of your type? Um... reading the description, and feeling like it was okay to be that kind of person underneath? It was...

I think this is a multifaceted question. Lest we forget, attraction is not always solely physical in nature. My answer to the question is 'yes, with conditions and caveats'. Thinking about it,...

I'm very ambivalent about it. As a child, it was easily the best time of the year bar none. Bar NONE. Every time the decorations would go up, the living room and my bedroom would be covered in a...

I love how a catch-all superficialties thread turns into a mostly-food thread :p Anyways I'm a terrible cook but a consummate eater so I've been trying to correct this terrible lack of balance...

Pardon the intrusion, but I couldn't help but wonder, after reading this - what else is there to say? What else can be said? In my opinion, promising someone to be with them for eternity is...

I can very strongly relate, for a number of reasons. Firstly, I don't trust people to be able to understand fully. Secondly, opening up makes me vulnerable, which I'm only willing to do with people I...

Adorable? Hmm... I'm not so sure about that one. I think I've had cute quite a few times though! (and not in a 'sexy cute' sense, more 'adorkable' from what I can tell). I don't get it as much any...

I don't have much to contribute myself - or at least, nothing that either I haven't already said sometime before or that I feel like sharing - but I wanted to express my gratitude towards the people...

I have seen plenty of people I find physically attractive, even if we might not have anything in common or necessarily go anywhere. (In fact, I've tried to train myself to maintain composure when...

Agree completely. I've seen people burn themselves out trying to be everything to everyone, and it never ends well. In some cases, they end up undoing all the good that has been done. However, I...

Reading this is really, really familiar. Firstly, Xion was completely correct in everything he said. I've been this exact person, myself. And I feel almost as though I should apologise, even though I...

Well, not all INFP's are alike, of course. Within the type, I've noticed another few more common 'subtypes' around, though everyone's an individual. Though with the ones you feel closest to, with...

Hey there. How are you doing? I hope you're well. Um... haha, no matter how practiced they are, pleasantries and idle banter never feel natural, somehow, but despite my ambivalence, I really do...

Firstly, you have to prepare yourself mentally for the possibility that, when you do tell him about your fiancée, he may either: - not want to be your friend, or - not feel able to be your...

I can't relate, in all honesty. Part of me wishes I could - in the end, feeling bitter or spiteful towards other people is like swallowing poison and expecting the other person to die from it. But...

That's an interesting sentiment, and one honestly a lot closer to my own current feelings than I would have expected to find. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that if someone were to be able to...

I can't really comment about this because I don't have a sibling, nor have I ever experienced the same thing myself. However, I think others are bang on the money when they say that your sister most...

I'm in accordance with the believers here, though I'm of the opinion - at least after reading what others have put - that the ways the parents present the myths is vastly more important than MBTI...'
