'Actually this thread reminds me more of TAing styles. My best friend in grad school is almost definitely an ENTP and his teaching style is similar to other people's descriptions of ENTPs. He's much...

I'm not a big fan of homework threads, especially if someone besides OP posts the solution. I thought the first few hint type posts were appropriate, as well as the beginning of KneeSeekerArrow's...

Hey, that sounds like me (kinda), therefore, you must be an INTP :p Faulty logic aside, I do want to point out that everyone has all the cognitive functions, it's just how much you prefer each...

The Giant's tight end is ready to go... Made me lol

Yeah I learned more about the game watching it with friends (and later going on a wikipedia spree). As for the Giants winning... Once get them stumbling through victories all season, you can't...

So, the other night I was heading back to the lab from my car. I was thinking a number of tenuously related things when suddenly the following train of thought occurred: ...And then I will go up...

I wasn't very interested in football until recently. I played in highschool (even though I had no idea what the rules where in the beginning). My best friend at grad school is a Giants fan, so that's...

Well put. I can't add anything at the moment without repeating it, so I'll just say thank you :) You know you're a thinker when... You mistake your friend's joking comment for a serious...

I don't know, I thought she was an INFP when I played through, but I guess that could be due to seeing the art as more feeling than thinking. Although, I think I see what you mean... Her obsession...

If I knew any INFPs, I'd be able to compliment you from personal experience, but alas, I do not :( Unless you count fictional characters (like Rin from Katawa Shoujo [at least I think she's INFP]). ...

Actually, I believe what Dementia in Absentia was showing was that INTP and ISFP have the opposite order of functions: INTP has Ti first, Ne second, while ISFP has Ne 7th and Ti 8th. This is...

I scored mostly male, and I aced the 3-D shapes; maybe Organic Chem major wasn't such a surprise ^.^ Angles Your score: 14 out of 20 Average score for men: 15.1 out of 20 Average score for...

When he was stateside, we had a great (5) relationship, but since he moved to the other side of the world, we barely talk these days (1), so I split the difference (3).

BS in Chemistry (ACS Certification too) and then to grad school for a PhD in Organic Chem. Also, INTP

INTP: Ti>Ne>Si>Te>Ni>Fe>Se=Si Hypotheical and somewhat Generalized Situation: Problem occurs between two mutual friends (Alice and Bob). Ne: Somethingx92s amissx85 Se: Just saw it on...

Here are the ones that I see in myself, with the bolded ones especially so. 3. You have a million good ideas and a thousand unfinished projects. 4. You say more in the 2 sentences that...

I've got two term papers to finish in addition to a presentation on my semester's research. And two finals. But instead I inevitably hit the solitaire like a junkie to crack.

Actual: INTP Preferred: INTJ Attracted: INTJ Well, I certainly would like to be more organized, however, I find that extroversion is useful in the world for getting stuff done. Also, I like...

After a few failed attempts at getting a relationship started with a girl, last summer I decided to lose my virginity in Amsterdam. For me, it was weird: I wanted to be intimate and have an...

Well, I think the perceive the world in the same way was referring to N vs. S perception. Yes, Ne and Ni are different perception functions, but it's closer than Ne and Si, which would result...

Well, one of my org profs told me: A week's work in the lab is worth an hour in the library. Typically the phrases are reversed, but I find it funnier this way.

Rejection, yes, commitment no. I do hate running out of options, though. My fears are dying alone and an apocalyptic event, zombie or otherwise. I'm not too afraid of growing up, but sometimes...

For a long time I thought I was an INFP in secret because I care about people. Turns out I only care about those close to me and not very much at all about strangers. I also feel much more...

I agree. When I first saw the glasses icon, I was upset, but just stayed away from the forums for a few days. Happy: thank you for making a much cooler icon.

I am doing chemistry research and I thought it would be very routinized, but when you are doing your own it's not. Granted, I have a professor guiding me and telling me to try this or that and he...

I daydream all the time. My ENFP friend and I bounce ideas off of each other all the time. Brainstorming with him is awesome. Personally though, last year I made a schedule to see what would...

I have to say the bolded phrase particularly resonates with me. I always thought that even though Fe was my inferior trait, I am still somewhat nice and accommodating to people, not just out of...

Aside from sarcasm and humour (often the same), what I say is the truth. I have a very hard time lying, even for a prank. As a matter of fact, I have a hard time saying the truth when it's a set-up...

Yeah, I definately did and continue to do that. When I first found out I was an INTP, I looked up all the INTP descriptions and either incorporated some of them into my life of realized that I'm not...

I have to agree. I hardly notice it, but I do it all the time, very naturally. Sometimes is ruins the fun of Ne :P As for Ne, I also do that without thinking because I daydream alot. I use Si...

So, any fellow Introverted Thinkers find that sometimes pure, single-minded thinking gets in the way? Now, I would NEVER trade my awesome brain for anything, but sometimes I feel like I think too...

Deist INTP here. Personally, my morals stem from axioms based on reason, a few values (i.e. subjective faith-based) and all the logical derivations therefrom. What does that mean? I keep thinking...

I would do the same -- seclusion and distraction would be my method until either I solved it or it solved itself. I would usually encounter it in periods of high stress, especially related to...

Sunrain: good to hear on your progress! When theory meets practice, things can really shine. calysco: I have had those types of situations too; I wish I was ballsy as you in dismissing the...

My younger brother is an ENTP, although as of late he is introverting. I like how you guys are great social navigators. While I can meet others at a party, my brother easily makes friends...

I too love to hear how awesome I am. But, it must be genuine, preferably relating to competence. Ex: That's an elegant solution; you are very good at X is preferable to That's an elegant outfit;...

I have to rank them too. Recently, I've had to extrovert more often than I like, so I recently came up as an ENTP, which just means I'm using my auxiliary function more often. I like how neeat and...

Very nice. Looking at the functions of the type I believe is key to understanding and especially to comparing two types. Yes, borderline P/J doesn't technically make sense, but your very nice...

I typed my best friend as ENFJ using functions. He told me he is an extrovert and he definitely is a feeler. NF sounded like the best fit for him, and he has a vivid imagination and rarely pays...

I can understand the concept of losing faith; I went through a similar period myself. It's difficult and I still wrestle with the thorny questions of existence every day, but I have come to some...

Well, as for the touching thing, INTPs are still human and as such, some measure of physical contact, however small, is nice and perhaps needed. However, people randomly hugging me or getting...

Well, I too like to keep an open mind, meaning that I won't have an opinion on something until I have thoroughly investigated it. Example: I have not investigated the JFK shooting so I don't know...

I'm Chemistry -- ACS Certificate. So far, I love organic chemistry and I plan on earning my Ph.D. in Organic or Medicinal chemistry in order to do pharmaceutical R&D. My goal is to set up my own...

Yeah, I never seem to hit that time... usually midnight gets me enough so I can make it through the day, but still, I gotta be careful. Now, if I go to be at 9 pm or earlier, I'm awake at midnight. ...

Same here. I used to get away with it, but now I have no choice but morning classes :( If I go to bed at 10, I'm good, but once it hits around 1 am, there's no stopping me for a few hours at...

When I'm pacing (i.e. alone), I often practice conversations with others. Sometimes I get somewhere, sometimes I just loop it. Either way, I feel like I'm socializing but without the fear of...

gnat: Why does your post follow the conventions of proper written English as opposed to the more popular net-speak? Do you cringe when you read a spelling or grammatical error or when someone...

Well, throughout the song he refers to dreams, his imagination and how the world is magical. This is much more iNtuitive than Sensing (heavy use of metaphors, appeal to imagination) and more Feeling...

Well this definitely screams NF to me... Owl City -- Fireflies http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rO3gg2cVfxg Edit: Here's the official music video. If I had to type it, I would say INFP. ...'
