'As a fellow INTP you should now that's like the proverbial honey to the equally proverbial bee. Before I can even contemplate about answering your questions seriously i feel compelled to answer...

Actually, unless they are in a sphere or sphere-like object there'd still be corners . .

While it serves a certain purpose and logic in some cases to limit someones choices to two it is still wrong ethically, since you forcefully limit the other persons choices and thus to some extent...

First step: Teach a cat to be a dog. 2nd step: Apply what you learned from step one onto yourself. 3rd step: Accept who you are and try the rest of your life to improve on that and become a...

Political correctness, puritanism,.. just all are different forms of the same thing imo: bigotry. It's like they say: extremes touch. And while it can be intellectually stimulating to foray into...

Pretty tall order considering most INTP's are nocturnal to boot :tongue:

@Reliability Sounds to me like he's in a dominant tertiary loop if he's an INTP ( from your descriptions he also seemed a possible ISTP). In the case of an INTP this is a Ti-Si loop. I...

Yup, At HS people thought it was odd that I used chemistry to help remember things in physics and vice versa, but to me it made complete sense. At work I utilize a similar concept to help me deal...

I.P. does serve a goal, to ensure it's holder has a chance to recuperate it's investment in it, and earning a decent profit off of it. However the current implementations of I.P. seem perverse to...

I think I have a terrible memory,especially for details or loose facts. I mostly remember what/how much I have forgotten. Though many colleagues see me as their personal living wiki. I mostly...

>_> <_< My cover is blown . . . Beam me up Kodos

No personality typology is perfect, and people that think one is or identify completely with one such stereotype are utterly misguided. There is still very much research to be done on this matter...

Generally speaking I think of myself as realistic/pessimistic idealist. I have many ideals politically, but very few to no principles, or hope. My political view is social-liberal. I think...

Hmmm INFP INFJ ISTP INTJ ENTP, but only when i feel extremely good/happy/bursting with energy which is very rare. I have been back and forth on this several times and compared the types,...

Mostly I find them confusing and irrational. Yet an integral part of the human condition, but only with a healthy dose of rationalism to keep it in check and prevent all those naughty excesses. Sure...

I think you misunderstood. An INTP would not solve it, that would require an effort and a deep interest. We would muse about the idea of solving it in our heads for a bit, then shrug it off and go...

Can't be bothered to copy/paste it from the corresponding thread in the INTP forum, but I scored True Neutral

That's along the lines of what I was thinking. The body would probably be in a very advanced of decay, before the INTP would notice it, that or he would need to fall over it.

Or the Ne commands you to..

So true imo there is huge difference between voluntary ceding control (usually glad to be rid of thinking about mundane things) and it being imposed on you. In the first case I probably even be...

To know when I need some me, myself and Intp time, and provide it (by eliminating all disturbing elements, including yourself, from my environment)

1) Thy shalt not idolize any rules 2) All rules are meant to be broken 3) Rule 2 trumps all 4) If you need rules to know if you are agood (wo)man or not, you are doing something wrong 5) See...

True Neutral True Neutral- A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true...

As a INTP - enneagram type 6w5 tritype 612 or 692 I can relate. Every so often I start to doubt I'm an INTP, but after all the hesitating, research, re-evaluating, and re-re-evaluating I always come...

And Trust is more a scale to me. I believe everyone deserves a chance to let you down. So I give everyone I meet some trust-credit and see how they use it, or abuse it. Generally it's hard and...

Outwardly we look very similar, but under the hood we are very different. So what makes us tick is very different. This is exemplified by our functions INTP : Ti Ne Si Fe INTJ : Ni Te Fi Se ...

Frank Herbert - Dune Hitchhiker's Guide to the galaxy Tolkien : The Hobbit, LOTR, Silmarillion

Sometimes I hate that I love thinking up the most efficiƫnt and effectieve systems for my work. I mean, it's fantastic thinking it all out, but if they really implement it it also narrows down my own...

I think it's based on a big misconception. INTP's can be great at exploring or creating conspiracy theories. However with an emphasis on theories, to us it's just like any other theory, something...

That's because thinking up all kinds of mischief is easy, actually making it reality takes too much effort compared to devising other mischievous possibilities. And it probably wouldn't even be as...

Gender stereotypes are an odd mix of nature AND nurture. And it's still not clear what the exact proportions of this recipe are. Sadly most people try to push it into one of these corners. ...

While outwardly I can seem very friendly, a bit happy-go-lucky even, most of the time I feel I'm forcing myself to differing degrees. I do it because I think that's how it should be and because of...

There is always an answer, knowing it - however- is a different matter. And one of the possible answers is always : 42 . .

Can be fun, but it's nearly impossible to focus long enough to start let alone finish a game. My mind just wonders too easily unless I'm really committed (read: interested) in something.

I usually get along great with INFP's too, at times they seem to be the only ones who are capable of following me when I go into a far out there idea, exploring the possibilities with me. Only...

True. In fact they can be quite handy when of our idea's needs to be made more concrete. They are very apt at things like that, and even seem to enjoy it, where as I(NTP's?!) get bored with such...

You worry too much about typing yourself, which is actually also what I did and from time to time still a prone to ;p Now on topic: MBTI (tries to) measure your natural inclination/preference in 4...

Good advice, Usually INTP bitterness or depression is linked to a Ti-Si-loop (constantly re-validating a certain conclusion by mauling over the same data (experiences) over and over), so that has...

Situation: Me driving with best friend beside me, I had just picked him up to go to a party and was flagged down by a road side alcohol inspection. - *roll down window* -- *very politely and good...

Not with a full one. Just some handouts about the basic things like Do not forget to feed ( but not after midnight ;p ) Do not disturb when pensive Give enough space and me-time Give...

Actually, I think all these emotions (can) serve a purpose in balanced personalities. If there is one emotion I'd eliminate without a seconds doubt its fanboyism/mass-hysteria. That one serves...

Oh my god . . , nah scratch that . . all the greakin deities in the world we live in and the world that have ever been thought up. . . This thread is amazing . . it's like some kind of drug,...

How do S-types handle INTP's ? Chain gangs? Forced labour camps? Indentured servitude?

>_> <_< Plausible deniability >_>

Wouldn't that get very sticky? 35216

Well, on that note . . If I were in a/the matrix . . I'd sue the programmer!!! This isn't what I wanted!!! Or if I am part of the programming, I'm buggy!! You made some serious mistakes buddy,...

I nominate . . YOU to do it 35215 Hmm wait, you're a straight male . . 35214

When you boil it down it is a matter of Systems vs individuals. Most individuals (hence forward referred to as sheaple . . err people) think it is impossible to change systems (like...

ana a lot of good insights in the male-INTP psyche already in this thread, like this one: He went hedgehog on you. He still spends too much effort on avoiding you, yet not cutting all ties or...

Now that just won't do Richard! You are an INTP, you should be able to at least make a home-made dirty bomb or something.'
