My only reservations: ^ Those sound suspiciously in keeping with the old managing-coping-adapting model that the article claimed we should do away with: Aren't managing and coping just...
ISTP. INTP would've been satisfied with just imagining what might happen. ETA: Diogenes sounds like an ENTP. Way too interested in consorting with the outside world for Ti to be dominant over...

4 pages and no mention of Bump of Chicken? For shame. Some of the sweetest and most relatable lyrics I've ever come across in J-music, or any music, really. K never fails to make me cry; Laugh...
nadjasix: Alas, nope.
I'm currently tutoring someone in Algebra II. Last session, because she said the current chapter was easy for her, instead of going over the book lessons and making her do tons of practice problems,...
Me IRL, 90% of the time, for 90% of my life: http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/003/364/I_m12YearsOld.jpg In elementary school I was more mature than my peers; by the time I hit...
I think you might've misunderstood me; I wasn't suggesting that you find other romantic company; I was suggesting you find other platonic company - y'know, just regular friends? Ah well, if...
I've never physically assaulted a person in anger except the last time my dad tried corporal punishment on me and I was so fed up with him that I fought back instead of taking it like a little bitch...
Lol omg, so many things about OP that made me do a double-take: >INTP >ENFP >Rose (this last thing no one on PerC will get, although oddly enough it is kind of relevant to the thread) Rose2012:...

10-week paper extension GET! o/ Take that, email-phobia!
*lurks in thread and takes notes* Hi I'm 23 and still finishing my undergrad, with no plans for grad school anytime soon. Herpderp. Good to know this stuff, tho!
And now, in keeping with the current train of thread conversation, I have to write an awkward email to one of my professors begging for an extension on a paper that I've been horrendously behind on...
Ugh, this, forever. I get the most ridiculous email phobia, especially if I'm sure I've done something wrong (sending someone else an email will almost always result in this feeling; not sending...
*raises hand* ...Am I seriously the only one who actually fit the stereotype? ಠ____ಠOther things I was occasionally noticed for: 1) sleeping in class 2) eating in class 3) sleeping in class...

habeuscorpses I was quite frankly an overachiever in high school, but I was never particularly irritated by slackadaisical (sic) underachievers. Perhaps that's why all the slacker in me finally let...
Most animals we interact with on a regular basis have discernible emotions that could easily be argued as reflecting a basic set of subjective values (e.g. I like being petted, being petted is...
Technically, yes, the thing you're using Fe at has to have its own emotions (= subjective values) because the e in Fe refers to external subjective values that Fe constantly references in deciding...
You got a 93/100 working all by yourself on a week-long assignment that you started 2 hours before it was due. You're the only person in your class who got less than 100/100 on this assignment...
When they won't let themselves have nice things.
you'll be back tomorrow but i can't see you in person for nearly another week FML also why did i launder your jacket it doesn't smell like you anymore AJDKFSLDJKLSFJ
And your teacher applies this criterion even to expository (as opposed to persuasive/narrative) essays? Because the biases of U.S. high school history books sure sounds like an expository essay...

Ti rips into Fi for holding illogical values, Fi realizes it can't touch Ti because Ti only cares about value-free logic, Fi goes for the soft Fe underbelly instead... Agreed. It's not pretty. ...
*raises hand* I might be the only INTP who listens mostly to music that appeals to every one of my functions except Ti. I think it's because I grew up using music as an escape/distraction from...

Obviously a bit of an oversimplification, but yes, inferior Fe means we are pretty black-and-white when it comes to emotions (at least, those of us who haven't rejected them entirely or simply never...
Don't give up; I've managed to be in two relationships where the guys had all three of those in spades (one I had to let go, and one I'm hoping to keep), so I promise you they do exist!
Inferior Fe: I want to value what everyone around me values, and vice versa! I want to like and be liked by everyone! ...But I don't know how. HALP. Aux Ne: LET ME THINK OF SOME POSSIBILITIES~!...
I'm judging by my actual observations as well; they just happen to fit nicely with my understanding of the functions. Rereading your original post, it would indeed appear to be a sampling issue, as I...
Amplitudo: Fun fact - this concession of yours is one of the few belief choices you will ever make that will probably never be falsified. Congrats! :Db Now you can join the rest of us who are already...
Amplitudo: Ah, so needing to find a faith-free system for understanding reality isn't a problem anymore? ;>
Aite then what's your problem?
I'm pretty sure I just gave an example of a case in which your belief/faith in something isn't a choice. I dare you to choose not to believe that your visual field is smooth and unbroken. Can you...
Oh, so that's what your problem was: You thought logic and reason all by themselves were sufficient to constitute a complete system for understanding reality. Well, they're not. Here's why: 1)...
alphacat: It's okay, this INTP likes playing with doggies that are all bark and no bite. ;>
How about this INTP, who has only dabbled lightly in philosophy of mind but makes a career out of studying how the human mind processes and constructs reality (especially language-based reality),...
Bwuh, I think the people who've said stuff to effect of you can distinguish INFPs from INTPs because INFPs are nicer/more considerate/more sociable have gotten Fi confused for Fe. That, or they've...
True, closer is indeed not necessarily better in terms of even just emotional health, let alone morals or ethics. I wonder how the connection you mentioned plays into things like Borderline...
nadjasix: Nice punchline. I will note, though, that the study itself had this to say: No, but it does appear to always be a fomenter of closer relationships. Given that, I'd still opt for what...
No matter how many times I encounter the huge P-ness pun, I never fail to find it amusing.
I once had a teacher who would use this sort of deadpan, not-blatantly-sarcastic verbal irony all the time, thinking it was just the most hilariously clever shit, and then give this what are you...
