'oh yes, I meant to say as well, I don't believe that depression is incompatible with sociopathy as some people seem to be claiming. I think it's perfectly plausible for them to be coexisting issues,...
Misophonia: yes but pretty much just for public alert sirens. The kind they used to warn of air raids in WW2, you know the ones that sound an interval of a minor third and sweep up and down in pitch....
Smartest :P
My mother was watching TV earlier, and I was attempting to explain how I just don't get the concept of entertainment as a TV genre. I understand comedy, information, drama, action et cetera, but...
Work is bullshit. I share your pain a lot at the moment...well, as much as I'm emotionally able to feel empathy anyway. At least you tried it and hated it though, it's much worse to feel secure in...
Research into sports and athleticism has revealed an enormously wide range of biological responses to exercise, with some people being so-called super-responders, others being polemically almost...
Can't be arsed reading the whole thread. I'm assuming someone has already covered because they evolved to hunt (among other creatures) small mammals which typically dwell in dark confined spaces...
I really struggle to come to terms with the concept of sharing my life or making compromises. I also struggle with the notion of actually having a real person with their own thoughts, feelings and...
OK, so the thread title is deliberately a little misleading...sorry... What I mean to ask is specifically: are INTP's incapable of being really secure and sure of themselves and content with who...
I'm not sure I dream at all most of the time. I'm sure my brainwave activity would indicate otherwise if it were measured, but I generally have 0% dream recall in the morning. If I ever do remember...
I love nature and scenery and trees and clouds. They are the most beautiful things to me - doubly so because they're all made of logic, mathematics, systems, they can be understood scientifically,...
For me, INTP hell is knowing about the existence of obtainable knowledge, but being prevented from obtaining it. Like when your friend or partner gets angry or upset but refuses to say why. Or...
I don't get relationships. How do I have one? I mean I know the basic idea, i've even had some failed ones in the past, but it just occurred to me the other day that I have absolutely no idea how to...
We need to talk closely followed by: because I said so could you just... make sure that... yes but WHEN?
Funny, people tell me I'd be an owl if I were an animal. I'm ok with that, owls are pretty awesome
I enjoy similar things, particularly occult symbols, rituals, figures and knowledge. Christian gnosticism has been fascinating me recently, and people like Crowley, Dee, Osman-Spare, Levi are always...
Happens to me all the time. In fact, I find it pretty hard to have any romantic feelings for anyone unless I know them pretty well first. Unfortunately, by the time I feel I know someone, they've...
yea I zone out easily when I'm somewhere familiar. I work on the reception in a band practice/recording studio and I zone out at work all the time. Thankfully it's not detrimental to my work because...
yes! this pisses me off too. Apparently my thinking face looks angry and grumpy and serious. Doesn't matter what i'm thinking about, if it's anything remotely in-depth, then I look like i'm scowling.
HFPS The humanitarian. I spend most of my life dispairing, expecting too much and generally being disappointed by humanity, rather than enthusing about it - although I guess they could be...
Just to update, I'm kinda over all this now. I don't understand my past self at all, reading back over my first few posts in this thread I don't really understand where I was coming from. This is the...
Everyone likes music right? Well yeah...but some of us are properly involved in it, surrounded and immersed in it. I am one such person, but there is little that is uncommon about that (I suspect...
Crush, fool, leave hell yea! Crush fools, then leave.
I dance. I'm a lot better at dancing to certain kinds of music than others though. People have sometimes commented that I dance as if i'm at a rave regardless of the setting. The more I like the...
My avatar is an owl. I like owls. The background is trippy. I like to trip.
Largely incomparable to my own experience. For me it went something like this: About 6 years ago: felt like best things had come to pass. Apathy. Greater awareness of time and circumstances. ...
I'm so confused. He communicates interest, and has continued to do so - so.....like.....what's the problem? What more do you want from him? Go and have vigorous passionate sex with him right now....
- What is justice, anyway? One of humankind's many attempts to make sense of the chaos of existence. It is a moral concept based on a sense of entitlement to retribution and/or protection following...
You sure about that? Because you go on to make generalizations about whites like this: and this: something to think about perhaps:wink:
Winter just makes me depressed and lethargic. Indoors is all dry and stuffy, outside is freezing and wet.
i'll take more or less anything, but I like to know a bit about it beforehand. I keep hoping if I try enough substances I'll find one that helps me stop hating myself.
Yes i'd risk my life for someone I love. I'd probably risk my life for someone I don't even know under the right circumstances - or at least, I would want to. However, I think a lot of the time...
I think you've misunderstood again (probably deliberately this time). By constantly and consistently I meant constantly and consistently becoming deluded, not constantly and consistently believing...
I had a confrontation with a fellow driver on my way home the other day. I was driving behind him, the reccomended distance between cars on that road is about 1 car-length, whenever I got within 2...
Technology is the best thing to smash by far, it's SO satisfying, particularly if it's the cause of your rage. All my laptops have got keys missing and re-soldered connections from where i've just...
I didn't say you were delusional. I said the idea of people being powerless and the idea of people being less free without guns were delusions. The difference is subtle, but vitally important....
No, making guns illegal is NOT the same as treating everyone like felons. For a start, not everybody owns a gun, and not everybody who does own a gun is going to cause trouble when asked to hand it...
well you'd have to have an amnesty, offer people the chance to surrender thier weapons, perhaps offer some kind of tax incentive or something. It could be worth looking up how it was approached here...
i think most introverts suffer this kind of feeling at some point, our world is inside our heads, and the extent to which we can communicate to others the true nature of our thoughts and ideas is...
personally, I think the government secretly created conspiracy theorists to keep us all scared and easily controllable
Music composed for it's own sake. As an expression, a commuication. Something which attempts to break boundaries and push the envelope OR something which stays firmly inside the envelope but is...
Look up Doro and Angela Gossow. Perhaps not exactly the same, but then it would be ridiculoous to expect to find exact female clones of Dickinson or Taylor, just as it would be ridiculus to expect...
Alice In Chains - Am I Inside not going to bother linking to a video or anything, if you care, you'll find it for yourself :laughing:
I guess it depends on your definition of independance. Inevitably, other people are going to share certain interests, opinions and positions (whether they be social, financial, philosophical or...
some people said something about how there would still be murders if guns were outlawed, i'm not going to bother looking back through the thread to quote it, but it should be obvious to even the most...
Not wanting to be a dick or anythingb, but Massive Attack is lead by Robert Del Naja or whatever his name is or 3d as he calls himself some of the time. Female vocalists for massive attack have all...
I get frustrated more than I get truly angry. Frustration is bad though - especially frustration with myself. I literally have to break something when I get frustrated. I can't feel normal until...
I've been doing jury duty for the last few weeks. I spent Valentines day hearing a rape trial. I also thought about my ex girlfriend, i texted her, she texted back, very little was said. I...
woah, this poll is pretty conclusive so far (18 votes in total at the time of posting) is this just to do with genre bias? or what? why don't more women sing interesting music? or is that just my...
I can't do small-talk, and I can't do flirting. Those stress me out the most. I don't like any kind of in-between-awkwardness. I do full-on deep conversation, I do arguing, I do objective debate, I...'
