'Here, you go, but why is the quote function so screwed up? Look at all that white space! 1. I have traces of general anxiety maybe, and I'm a maximizer for sure. 2. The first image is...

Sure, why not? Post it here? Or link to the thread?

Like some others, I believe that the MBTI are patterns of activity, so nobody is really one type fully, they can have multiple types that describe them well. With that said, I was wondering if you...

I am so sad they are all set to private. I was going to go back and start watching some, but now there's no way. They were really good resources and the people she talked to were diverse and...

I think you need to force it. She's a lost cause. Treat yourself better.

Dario Nardi's Neuroscience of Personality book says that MBTI is about patterns of brain activity. Patterns, not a fixed set of functioning. From this, it's easy to assume/see how somebody can be...

So... is there still a point to this thread? Or should I leave before it disa

Is this what you want to hear? Because I can give you what you want to hear, but it won't be honest.

1. Physical, though you could say it was somewhat intimidating or indirect too. I wouldn't want to bully someone, I'd probably have to force myself to do it, like [squeemish] But you need to be...

I love music but I don't have the healthiest relationship with it. I over analyze it. I can feel myself automatically trying to predict where a song will go, or change my experience with it a song...

I am only vulnerable when I watch TV. And by vulnerable I mean truly emotionally open. Sometimes I have these deep, profound moments that are so much more than the story... they stir things up in me...

They are just unreasonable. But there is one final thing you could try: asking them what they DON'T want. There was a quote from The Bridge... [edit] meant to say Under The Dome, something like...

I officially certify this post 200% ENFJ.

By inspires, I mean something that when you experience it, it changes how you think and you see life. Things open up or seem hopeful. Things have a sparkle to them. You will know the experience...

I walk uncalmly... there is nothing laid back about it. It's purposeful, fast, and a bit straight. I notice a lot of guys when they walk, their feet so at an angle. I so don't do that. Walking and...

Of course I do! I feel like it's somewhat uncool to talk technically or just flat out say what I feel in real life. It can be really harsh as well. There's somebody I want to break a friendship off...

What they really mean is they want to be surprised, using their familiar palette of foods. I do this sometimes too. They just said it wrong. They should have said Choose something you know both of...

You mean you don't have those powers? Were you born disabled or something? I wish I could glow in the dark :laughing:

I love that website, so thanks! I'll go read it now.

I noticed something about myself today: I've got a lot of contradictions. I love efficiency and smart system design, but I'm bad at time management and getting projects done I am pretty...

http://i.imgur.com/UAkO555.jpg However, do note that my handwriting changes a lot depending on the tool I'm using and the surface. Sometimes it doesn't feel natural to write like that and I...

Children nowadays look much older. I only graduated in 2008 but I swear there are 14 and 15 year olds that look already in their early 20s. I didn't meant to be so harsh. Just it would be more...

Bureaucracy crap at it's finest! I heard something on Castle recently that totally crushes the well if it was a good idea, someone would have implemented it by now BS. It was something like Large...

It's something that people should learn (to read at least), but besides that, I don't see the point. It's not used on computers, it's not used on TV, in not legal documents, where really is it being...

I'm glad makeup exists. Our identity is highly linked to what we see in the mirror. Regardless of how much you care/don't care about your appearance, it's the one of the first signs of...

I feel like if I don't know the outcome or can't achieve it, why even both in the first place? I need a bit of certainty with things (that's why wasting time is acceptable - not that I like to waste...

Learn to dumb down what you want to talk about. People probably won't be interested if you go on a huge tangent, but maybe you can rope them in to listen.

I don't think calling him an ISTJ is a good thing to do. It's like validating his behavior behind a label! He just sounds insufferable. What kind of parent makes their kind sleep in the shed or the...

I feel like such a complex bundle of emotions. I feel disappointed, ready to fix mistakes the of the past, yet at the same time too lazy and discouraged to do anything. But I do really want it.

I think the only way to change your personality is to make a conscious effort and stick to it until it feels natural. You need to do/feel it until you've totally assimilated it. I guess I could say...

I don't have any science to back up my facts, but I would actually think that due to so much instant gratification that it decreases the amount of dopamine one has. Kind of like too much of a good...

My personal computer. Seriously, it has music and all my stuff on it and it's extremely easy/tempting to distracted just because it's so available. It's like putting tons of 5 star restaurant...

I was thinking the same thing! *cue all memories when I've seen somebody knocked out by a brick in a tv show* What else about bricks... well bricks are similar blocks, and reminds me of Microsoft...

MBTI's rules (you need to use all 4, they must be alternating, and they must fit to any of these 16) are one of the reasons why it's a flawed model by the way.

Why only concrete, abstract, and spiritual categories? Shouldn't there be more? And in what context? Writing stories, forums online, what? I don't write stories, but I could see how they could be...

Why do you want castration? Isn't sterilization good enough?

Killing everybody who doesn't agree with your methods. Never said it was the most fool proof or risky, but you have the benefit of making examples of those who step out of line and they can't...

I just think that the way a message is delivered can be more important than the actual content. I also heard about the framing effect as well which is similar. Yeah, my examples were over the top,...

I think you need to employ tough love. If they will not listen to convention wisdom or even a bullet list of why it can/should help them, then you need to lay out what the situation is bluntly, like...

underutilized (shit, I thought you siad a single word. now i dont want to go back and have to come up with something again - this is all you get!)

INTP here. I think it means... conviction intrinsic value (I'm not doing this for the money!) individualism secrecy not easily logical (like if you wanted to distill it down a...

Reading personality type descriptions and taking tests is the least accurate way to know your type. Remember there was a study once done where everybody thought they were getting individualized...

Is there anything we can do to bring option B higher? I know you said Assume the exact scientific estimate but that is hard to do in this case. I feel like if it's already 33% likely to save 3x as...

Yes. Another thing is I think people are capable of self-inception... if there is enough incentive/fear driving something, people can put in the effort to change or will be forced. And when in a...

I don't think Ryan Gosling is good looking.

I think it's cause dreams want to be exciting and full of action. And that usually means high stake sitations or violence or crazyness, etc. I just see violence as a means to an end. Plus, a lot of...

Nope. I had only a couple nightmares as a kid, but then they went away. My dreams, like the above post, are usually violent but I am never effected by them. Most times I am not even in my dreams...

This is something I've been experiencing recently in my personal life. I've heard it as an observation and almost an insult. When I am most calm and can think best, I have a tendency to get into...

Oh, I saw it as something like this: You need to me relay messages. > therefore you are in a position of power. Hypothetical situation: you think you are not being rewarded enough for your actions,...'
