'I think kind behaviour can come from inner strength or weakness, and that there's a difference between being genuinely kind and being an overly accommodating doormat. When I am kind it's usually...
Too many sticky threads for my taste... </disagreeable grumbling>
I think I have feelings. Ew. Should I stomp them? It wouldn't be pleasant, but I can't let them run around like this! What if they bite? I could get rabies and die!
So she went behind my back and complained to the landlord about me. When that didn't work, she went behind the landlord's back and complained to the tenancy tribunal about him. That didn't work...
ISFJ is the big one for me. I know a few of them and we actually get along really well... until we start getting too close. A specific ISFJ and I have ongoing problems because neither of us has the...
I received my first summons yesterday. My flatmate's reaction was 'HA HA YOU HAVE TO DO JURY DUTY LOL' My mum once told me that my granddad was really unlucky because he apparently got summoned so...
Your words struck me that way. Whether you're actually like that, I don't know. Any proof that liking efficiency reduces the value you place on human life in the pipeline?
Never. I read some school reports my mum saved from when I was six years old. They describe a 6-year-old INTP haha. However, I have been known to behave more like a different type (ENTP or ENTJ...
I used to live with an ENTJ who could be quite critical. Not actually arrogant, but easily misinterpreted as such. As in, I'm going to explain this to you step-by-step. That way, you won't keep...
That is much more familiar. Still can't say I'm sold on INTP as his type. The whole goal-setting, high ambition thing seems a bit out of character for an INTP. An INTP on a mission to implement some...
Agreed. That seems like some kind of wizardry to me. INTPs like to dissect and check and build things. I could see ideas coming out of nowhere, but then they would be taken apart and recombined...
I do that. I also do it when I'm reading music... can't really use 'but I preserved the meaning' as an excuse there haha.
Hmm... well, Shostakovich 11 is conveniently an hour long. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO2gqtw3rbw
Yeah, I majored in music and there were a few INTPs and INTJs around. There were people of all types, actually. I don't think type affects your inclination towards art, but it might affect how the...
I agreed to give a dude my number because he said he needed musicians for his studio. Several irritating text messages later, I'm certain he never had any intention of employing me and is only...
Video: How to Do a Flat on the Viola | eHow - Something about this lady's demeanour scares the crap out of me. It's almost as if she's being extremely sarcastic or biting back barely suppressed...
I don't know about being an assassin, but can tell you from experience that competition is fierce in the slacker field. Long hours, too.
This is weird. Attraction is not something I experience very often. Nobody has distracted me like this in... well... ever? And the stupid thing is that I don't actually know anything about him, not...
Without a degree I have nothing in the eyes of an employer. To pursue my ultimate dream and that is to work in the game industry. Games? I wanna make games is what most of my classmates...
I feel lucky that so many of my friends are classical musicians. Of course it doesn't mean we all have the same taste, haha. People are looking for different experiences from music. Some people only...
But what does it mean to you? I hate this question above all others.
We did pretty much the same test over here: http://personalitycafe.com/personality-test-resources/11281-reading-peoples-facial-expressions.html I was surprised to score 36. I tried to ignore my...
People just want to stay in their safe little bubble and not have you come along and burst it. #322 & #323 “My friend group has a case of the Creepy Dude. How do we clear that up?” |...
RPG whinge: it's annoying when NPCs keep referring to how attractive your character is when you're trying to roleplay a character who's ugly :P
if(INTP.shouldStudy()){ perC.browse(); }
I know what you're talking about. Luckily, I don't mind walking in front of lines. As for why it happens, here's my guess: People who are talking to each other naturally stick together. Some people...
Compliments are a band-aid solution for insecurities. They don't really get at the root of the problem. Unfortunately I'm not socially awesome enough to tell you what to say, but maybe you can try to...
I have successfully subscribed. Thanks for the videos, looking forward to seeing more (:
I normally just tell people that I majored in violin, but it was properly titled Classical Performance. Love performing in an orchestra. Hate performing solo. Tangent: classical performance screws...
All of them haha. I got to play symphony no. 6 a couple of months ago, and no. 5 is coming up in August (excite!) If I wasn't a violinist, I'd want to play the french horn. ...
Not today. I have exams in two weeks, so I quit coffee just this past Monday and replaced it with hot chocolate. They say it's addictive but I don't really feel any different, except that I...
Even the language is unprofessional. I'm surprised anyone actually gives money to this website. There is almost nothing the INFP will do in order to avoid conflict. Eh?
I have one eyeliner pencil and some lip glosses but they are all very old and almost unused. Sometimes I feel like looking pretty is a game that other people play but I don't really understand. On...
How to be an idiot: Put pie in oven. Wait an hour. Retrieve delicious pie! - oh. Oven not turned on. No delicious pie... yet.
Sometimes I teach violin. I recently asked a student if I could tune his violin for him and his mother said, 'No, we've already had it professionally tuned.' I mean, it's okay for her not to know...
'As a woman, I find it difficult to reverse into angled car parks.' She then looked at me as though I was going to corroborate that I, too, cannot park a car, and it is indeed because I am female. I...
Information is interpreted data. Information is barely sufficient. These are the only things I can remember from INFO101.
Repetition? Unfortunately repetition is essential, but if you can focus you can make it rewarding instead of boring. If you feel bored, you are practising wrong and you should either work on...
Huh? I find that they treat the nerds like total caricatures who have to fail at everyday life just so we can have a way to laugh down at them. Whoever said you can't think too much while watching...
I did a BMus in performance but I'm no concert soloist, haha. It is an incredibly, incredibly hard path that you want to walk, and I suspect that might be why your teacher doesn't encourage you to...
Always an INTP, though I did go through a stage of trying my very best to be an ESFP. The things that happen to you can easily affect your behaviour, but won't necessarily change you at your core. I...
Jane Eyre, then I'll read Sense and Sensibility. I'm on a mission to read the classics.
I don't suppose there's anyone who sees the value in both small talk and the pursuit of knowledge.
Eat and sleep properly. Don't stay up til 2am unless you can afford to stay in bed til 10 the next morning. Focus in class so you don't have to spend as much of your valuable internet-browsing time...
I suspect you can score up to 100% in either direction, otherwise the maximum score in anything would be 50%. You could think of it as scoring -11 extraverted.
Musical > Logical > Visual/Spatial I'm studying, but sometimes I work as a violinist.
It's pretty! Reminds me a little bit of Stravinsky and a little bit of Sibelius. And quite a lot of playing video games and watching movies :P
You casually throw a witty, flirty, original pick-up line at someone... without meaning it that way. When you finally realise how forward it must have seemed, you get confused and clam up for a day...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2_F42A6cFs It's a bit long because there are two movements here. It's all good stuff but the first 9 minutes or so (Passacaglia) is definitely recommended listening.
1) I don't know how to answer this question other than I don't put myself into situations like that. I guess I'd go borrow $200 from the bank to replace it. 2) Apparently I'm an idiot and I'd...'
