Serious injuries tend to trigger it for me.
I'm only in a crowd when necessary, or when a friend or family member forces me to be in one. One of my weaknesses is sensory overload that comes from overstimulation. If I spend more than about half...
What is your MBTI type? What is your gender? What is your age? What type of environment do you live in (city/ suburbs/ rural)? Where do you live? My MBTI type so some type of NTP. I am not sure if...
You should also consider using a better pH buffer in your bloodstream. Our blood is buffered with sodium bicarbonate - an extremely wimpy buffer.
What would you, the Personality Café community, type Carl Sagan as?
Dear ISTJ: It doesn't hurt to make things up as you go along from time to time. Sincerely - INTP.
As an undergraduate Chemistry student, I have heeded some interesting advice from my advisor. The advice is to not do any homework or studying at night, but instead to go to sleep around 8 - 9PM,...

I often go off on tangents, both when explaining something, and when thinking about something, and a brief explanation of something can turn into a long-winded lecture about an a different, but...
I'd like an opinion from INTJ's about the debate between proponents of pi and proponents of tau. I will avoid supplying my own opinions in order to avoid potentially biasing the opinion of this...
I hope those circuit boards weren't made with a lead-based solder.
A device capable of making sheets, blocks, or wires of diamond from graphite (probably via nanotechnology). Barring that, It would be nice to have extra body parts grafted on which are fully...
I like how they keep a 12-hour clock in the background while he talks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6xJfP7-HCc
I'm a Chemistry undergrad right now. Are there any others on here? Grad students? Professionals? Teachers? Professors? Hobbyists? If so, what is your opinion on the subject? Which personality...
I think it has to do with a person's fascination with the world. If this is apparent, it may seem childlike.
All the time. My thoughts are always faster than my speech.
A coin-toss never has a truly random outcome. If all variables put into a system can be measured and accounted for, and enough calculation carried out, and all variables repeated with exactly...

What is flirting, anyway?
I was a vegetarian for four years, and a vegan for two of those four. I was cured of that affliction after some long, deep thought about the history of meat, why we eat it, and the real reason I...
Some say make love not war. I say, it's more fun to do both at the same time.
I'm usually very honest with people. Usually, but not always. When I do lie, however, my lies are usually convincing enough to sound like truth... This is mainly because they're constructed from...
I have a paper due monday morning. It's 1:34AM on a Sunday (morning), and have not yet begun work on the paper. I have all the sources and know exactly what to write, but simply have not written...

Never heard of it.
To turn invisible when nobody's looking.

I'm almost certain that Lord Havelock Vetinari from the Discworld series is an INTJ
I think Terence Mckenna was an INTP. Maybe an INXP, half thinking and half feeling.

In public school, I was stuck into the special-ed classes. After being pulled from public school, I was accepted to a school for a gifted. Somewhere, there's a file with my name on it that has both...
What about Daniel Waterhouse from the Baroque Cycle?
The Scottish are extremely masculine. Nothing says Don't fuck with me like having the unicorn as your national animal.
I think psychedelic drugs should be legal, but I despise Timothy Leary for ruining their credibility. I don't like hippies, but I don't like consumer culture either..... People tend to assume...
We have no free will. This is not a bad thing
Cognitive functions are essentially ways of thinking. Everyone thinks differently, but the methods of thinking can be roughly categorized into different types. A good overview can be had here...
I would find a place near the top of a hill or mountain. This would have to be somewhere in New England since I am most familiar with the ecology here. I would live near a stream that has giant...

If there is food or alcohol involved, I'll be drawn to large crowds in the same way that oil companies are drawn to the northern ice cap - break through the ice, extract the valuable resources, leave...
I'd go and watch free movies all day.... That was a reference to a sketch about anarchism by the Whitest Kids U' Know.... In all seriousness, I'd probably just experiment with things; make...

Someone doesn't understand that a reducing agent is a chemical that is oxidized, and an oxidizing agent is a chemical that is reduced. You explain the concept in terms of hydraulics. You get a...
You read every single Discworld novel.
You draw out the shapes of several different molecules in order to prove a point about pronunciation.
possibly Bernard from Black Books? Or perhaps he's just incredibly antisocial.'
