'I think that's why I wound up overwhelming myself with micromanagement. Hell, I can't even meet my own expectations, and although it doesn't slay me anymore, I was definitely judgmental to the level...
I think one of my greater weaknesses in my youth as been administrating the systems I develop (e.g. control freak), but I've lately found a taste with the temporal, quiet form of leadership:...
What is my relationship with ENFPs? Not Applicable.
I used to strategize my future decades in advance. Now I can hardly plan a week. And I glow; I'm one of the happiest people I know. I wish that I could easily provide a pathway. Unfortunately, the...
Cul-de-sac: You should elaborate upon this with the creation of a thread. Making society unravel is a pretty intense conclusion. I'd love to see examples.
And my amazing weakness is my poor portrayal of something that could be astonishing. Of course it's individual. And of course I have my flaws. One not need to hover over or embrace them in any...
The beauty is when one ceases to think of relativity and definition . . . and other things. Don't think too much. Break your mind. You INTPs are hot when you don't have to pause to analyze...
It wasn't until I was 30 when I finally realized that logic is a perspective of definition -- or ought I name it a product (?) -- and it had imprisoned my mind since birth. To those who will be...
Most of what I own is functional. However, I do like to collect ancient currency. There's something about holding something, say, 2,500 years old that's cool. It's very expensive though, and also...
There isn't too much that's special about how I write, except: 1. I write a hell of a lot better than I speak. Seeing what I write as I write it improves my discourse. 2. I'm prone to leaving...

I've never experienced a breakup that wasn't mutual, and they've usually moved out of my system in a few months, but I have experienced pretty sudden, horrific ends (e.g. raped with a knife by ex-bf...
20. I disagreed with a lot of the questions. Several had a theme which I believe opposite: I appreciate chaos, stress, and a lot going on at once (almost like immersion learning a language), but I do...
By myself? Probably a few months comfortably. With one other person that I get along with? A lifetime.
I just want to make a quick post concerning those who identify as INTJs, using some MBTI lingo, and why I said report him throughout my posts: INTJs are driven to rationally resolve problems with...
I'm not rare. I'll write a book or dozen someday, and some family will say they want the profits for what their relative wrote. And I'll say fuck you, like a boss. If I surprise myself, it'll be...
Give him some Taylor Swift too. Everyone suffers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLf9q36UsBk
Each INTJ may be different. This is no simple translation, but within a decade of change: I systematically destroyed my mind until I lost my feelings for humanity, and death, fell into several phases...
Unfortunately, I did not feel that way when in that state of mind. I actually interpreted it as offensive when a psychiatrist told me that other's feelings should be included with mine. Granted, I...
If it becomes dangerously concerning, report him. One of my INTP friends did the same to me, and 2 weeks in a psych ward helped a lot. I had also approached the homicidal. If you're looking for a...
In my experiences, one initially flows through a sort of sine wave of repeated nihilistic bouts until either the mind drifts off along a vertical asymptote of eccentricity, such as seeing beauty in...
Tell the world how you really feel, in a psychiatric ward.
Nihilism is such a brief phase of life, assuming that it's necessary for your preferred color of transcendentalism upon various destruction. I think it should stick around, but I have no clue why...
@Pam I worked with an ISTJ female for about 6 months. She was married, very hardworking, loyal to her job, traditional, practical -- taught me a lot about priorities and living in the hear / now,...
I don't often have the opportunity to play video games anymore, but here are some of my long-term favorites throughout life that I've replayed several times: Final Fantasy Final Fantasy III (VI)...
I'm happy living life with several strong schisms, and all of them are constantly evolving. Multiple situational perspectives are far more interesting than the same boring one I'd always regurgitated...
A bottle of Ensure, a pound of cheddar cheese, 2 multi-grain bagels with light canola butter, a can of sardines in olive oil, a can of spinach, a Cliff bar with seeds, 4 bottles of Guinness, and...
I used to in my 20s. I've shed more and more as I've gone. I gave most of my things away during my last move. Now, pretty much all of what I own can fit into a 10'x10' bedroom, including desk, two...
Scientifically speaking? It can range from a flat out no, to not measurable, to unknown. Since science is a field of definition, I recommend not seeking your answer there. After all, should not...
I don't think NFs or NTs are insane as pertaining to some layman's definition towards their psychology. I think NFs and NTs can be prone to destructive introspection though, especially the...
Getting to stay in bed all day. But now my back has an ache. 20 hours was probably overdoing it. Back to work tomorrow. Yay.
What is the meaning of life? I've found my mind so psychologically destroyed on multiple occasions that I can't even fathom the question anymore. For someone who once loved to draw the future in,...
I took a job in maintenance recently--a simple buildings and grounds, and progressed to management within about 9 months. I took it because trades were a fierce weak-point in my life--I'm more the...
I think the difference between the two is feedback from your peers, immediately after finishing. @starscream430 Acting, especially in an academic course, has this terrible quality of telling...
For me, this was the hardest class to take at university, and probably the one that's served me best. Memorizing? Sure, that's a challenge for most. I think it was portraying convincing emotions and...
I have conformed all of my happiness and sorrows into beauty already. Regardless to the state of the situation, even in vast suffering, I see beauty in it--even my own death. This naturally leads to...
What's the difference between a logical argument and an opinion? Truth tables? Some other formulaic rule set? Or just that you thought it was an opinion? That seems to reinforce the original...
I read a curious post, in my perusing, inspired by post-work unwinding perhaps. Yes, my idea of relaxing is reading the debate forums, and wondering what the fuck people are thinking. Cited from...
Consider it the only source of documented, researched works, and expressions of creativity. There are no reproductions. For instance, all poets and philosophers would have their works entirely lost,...
POLL QUESTION (Pretend) There is only one library on the planet. You are a scholar, serving and studying its many tomes. By whatever consequence, the structure has caught on fire, and the fire...
When the day comes that such a pervasive system is viable, I'll tip my hat. Otherwise, Russia Today ruined 1984 a for me. Everything is Orwellian, calling the kettle black.
I tend to hold glances (around 2 seconds) with almost everyone I meet, a bit longer than socially normal. Men tend to look away after a second or so, after which I do too. This prompts a verbal...
But I've met INFPs, INFJs, INTPs, ENTJs, ENTPs, ISFJs, . . . that also do this. Hmm. A lot of these things are a pretty big turnoff. That's probably why. I'm pretty picky.
Well, I picture scientists as those trying to systematically analyze systems by building definitions from observations, expectations, and then experiments to further create and justify their...
@centralman If that video (series) is in the least bit accurate, I believe I see why I have no recognition of their existence: They blend in with pretty much everyone else, and I'm not fitting the...
I'm oblivious in this respect. I see ENFPs popping up all the time in our forums. Is there something that stands out about them that I should be noticing? What is it? I'm serious. I don't think...
Do you, or have you, proactively sought companionship after several relationships? Or have you found yourself with a certain degree of apathy, turning your attention to other interests rather than...
What is it? Hadron Collider? Potassium Cyanide!? Remember when the dumb-asses on this planet thought CERN would create a miniature black hole and consume the Earth? That was a fun time....
I was suicidal several times in my teens and 20s. I became homicidal a couple times early 30s. Such is existentialism, entry into nihilism, then the absurdity of restructuring your existence. It's...'
