'Maybe somebody can explain this one to me: Why is it that people who are convinced the world will end in 2012 are writing and publishing books about it? Saving all that cash up for what, a bonfire...
2012 is the end of the current cycle, the name of which (granted, it was coined by historians but still) escapes me but I believe it might be the Bak'tun. The calendar doesn't end on 2012 it just...
Obama isn't an American The Health Care Plan is communism and gives free health care to everyone! Communism and Socialism are the same The new Arizona law allows police to pull over...
Pride is fine, it's the fanatical WE SHOULD SECEDE FROM THE UNION craziness that gets to me, personally. There's a difference between pride and nationalism. Avoid nationalism, it lead to the...
There is always at least a little bit of caring in every I don't care. If you don't care, how can you be hurt? But the fear of being hurt implies you do care. So there is not merely caring but...
Used to get into noble fights all the time in Elementary school because I felt the need to protect people. I don't remember it, but my parents tell me stories. Apparently one time some kid was...
As a social studies teacher I have certainly made efforts to KNOW about politics, so as to teach and inform and guide, but I seem to be irreversibly moving towards something more. My parents are...
San Antonio Texas. Stay away. I have been trying to move to California, Washington, Oregon, or God help me New Zealand for some time now. I will never understand why this bloody state...
Sherlock Holmes definitely for his competence, also Indiana Jones for those of us that do believe he's one. Batman for his justified crusader mentality (sometimes you just have to get the job done,...
Speaking of staring, has anyone else noticed that INTJ pretty much have the exact same expression on their faces while being photographed? Seriously. Go take a look at the forum users portraits...
Whad'ya mean go and get some ENFPs? What, you people roam in packs or something? All it takes is the long, drawn out call of...
I LOVE to fight. There's a connection there, when you square off against someone who is your equal and knows it. It's intensely cerebral. See that new Sherlock Holmes movie? The fight scenes...
When you use knowledge of string theory to spark up a conversation with a women you're attracted to so you can find out if she's worth asking out or not. I did this last week. :mellow:
I don't mean to put out the spot of hope in your heart, I mean for you to get out there and reveal all of this to him. I ask you why you tell US about these thoughts and not him. And I mean every...
Am I the only one finding this entire thread exceptionally entertaining?
Well see there's a problem there in that I do my best work while standing. And which mask? I wear many, each to its own purpose.
I was professionally diagnosed about 4 years ago, though I didn't take this test. Mine is apparent in little quirks of behavior. I can't, for example, drink the last bit of soda/water/anything out...
Hoping for an INTJ to wake up to things like this is like hoping a religious fanatic will suddenly think to themselves You know, I think Atheism is the way to go. Honesty. Up-front,...
I can't begin to understand why I never thought to do this before. It seems so much more simple than blindly flailing about, however much I may enjoy flailing in all its glorious forms. Please...
I don't know if love is real. The historian in me questions it and says that it is possible, even likely, that it is a construct of society. It certainly isn't universal. Comparisons of what is...
LOL that's what I get for typing something at 5 AM and not paying much attention. You clever catcher of my mistakes you. ESTJ. Wow. Phale.
Throw in some fruit snacks and whiskey and you've got yourself a deal. I am booked till December, however, but I'll put you on the waiting list.
Wherever I am needed, Bionic. Wherever I am needed.
Hmm... I only bother to get to know people who are within the realm of what I would consider interesting. Anyone outside that gets professional-type remarks and interaction, nothing more. If I...
Just to say: Morale = the psychological state of a person, good or bad, used often to refer to the military. There's a topic where morality is being discussed to death too. Personally, I think...
You defended OneiricEntropy's argument, which makes it your argument. Nobody is a true utilitarian, since utilitarianism depends on knowledge of every possible outcome and nobody knows every...
Touche. I misread your previous comment as asking to show a society where such an action would be perceived as good by the society, not where such an action would be considered good in general...
Obviously it isn't obvious since I obviously didn't catch it. It still doesn't make sense. I present a hypothetical situation wherein a culture believes that raping that child will result in the...
I never said it made it right, I said it didn't make it evil and I said it makes it right IN THEIR EYES. If you aren't them, your opinion of their actions is irrelevant. Who the hell are you to...
Because despite the efficiency and convenience of it, a bayoneted weapon is still a pretty terrible weapon for melee. I'd rather have twice the length, lugs, and a cutting edge, even if it means...
When did wonder woman become so damn skinny? Rifle though, Russian 1932 Mosin Nagant. Close range- lugged spear with a leaf broad head for cutting. Pwns just about everything.
You know I've read this about seven times and it may just be that I'm tired, but I absolutely have no idea what you are trying to say. What proposition? What answer? If they believe that not...
You know to be honest, I'd be willing to bet a considerable sum that there has been a culture in the history of the Earth that has done this, likely for religious purposes. I'd definitely be...
Never would have allowed for it to happen in the first place. Seriously, the idiot in charge who put profits ahead of safety/efficiency/longterm investment needs to hang his head in shame, and then...
Wow this is still floating around? I haven't talked to this girl in over a year... it didn't work out... :sad: You know the funny thing is I don't think it worked out because we were TOO...
^ This is correct.
You're arguing with an admittedly spartan person, so my response to this is: if you enjoy something to the extent that you feel the need to do it routinely, then you are addicted. I don't think...
Marijuana isn't destructive? Bull. I chortle when people try to defend the stuff. I've had my fair share of friends who did it. One friend... well, the last I ever saw of him was him being half...
A physical addiction is unnecessary. The addiction is psychological. The need for this nonsensical experience of theirs. What a wasteful excuse to do anything. I may as well cut off all my...
Drugs are a pathetic dependency and self-destructive behavior. I find most people who use them, whatever their excuse, disgusting and I don't give a damn what anybody thinks of my thoughts on the...
Thankfully I have my cold spear of logic to deal with mood swings. Right? ... ... ... right? uh oh...
So most of my life I've associated with a very, very select few people. These people are as follows: One ESFJ who amuses me. I give him advice that he ignores and he comes to me for emotional...
1. Justification for the masses 2. EMP devices 3. An effective and absolutely loyal secret police. Preferably artificial. I'm a historian. I not only think about this every day, I even...
The MBTI is a foundation, not a complete floor plan.
Why are you bothering will all this second-guessing nonsense? Ask him. All this INTJ's are so mysterious nonsense is annoying. We appreciate straightforwardness and direct questions more...
In my time in Japan I never once received a fortune cookie. Of course, curry shops and Pan-ya's aren't the best places for them... but still. You'd think (insert horrible stereotype scenario) and...
I'm male, but I did spend a night at an apartment with two INTJ females. We talked about physics and powered armour and how the stuff COULD work if only we could just figure out a way to harness all...
Do fortune cookies even tell fortunes anymore? All I ever see are like... pathetic little pseudo wisdom anecdotes or quotes or phrases or some other nonsense... I can already quote Sun Tzu, I...
If the thread is amusing, relevant, or otherwise worth the time to look at, what does it matter who made it and how long ago?'
