'I disagree on Near, but since I'm sure it's already been debated heavily elsewhere in the thread, I won't argue you here. I really think he's INTP, but whatever. To each their own. Ah, that makes...
Has anyone else noticed that anime/manga tend to include more INTP's in their stories than American literature does? People like L and Near in Death Note, and Stein in Soul Eater, who are absolutely...
Any ideas for a mystery book that an INTP would enjoy? And yes, I've already read Sherlock Holmes and loved it. What I'm really looking for is a series of mysteries that gives you the chance to solve...
8/10 I like the motto. Not always easy in the real world though.
Intelligent, abstract, foresight, detached, caring (but only to a few).
What is your opinion of all the games they have for iPod and Android? Things like Temple Run and the infamous Angry Birds?
NF hunt! Now that sounds amusing. :) Any suggestions on where I can find them? I actually have the sneaking suspicion a close friend of mine is one . . .
I understand what you mean by Neanderthal emotions. I genuinely feel regret for hurting her. However, I also occasionally feel that she takes things in a way I had no intention of meaning them, which...
That's it exactly. My best friend is a senser, and while she is excellent for social conventions that I should probably know, it's hard for her to tell me about emotions in a way I understand.
I need a friend like that. :)
Hmm. You see, the reason I say a book you've read before is that if it's a new book, I have a tendency to get so interested by the book that I stay up even later than usual reading. Not enough...
I know how that goes. When they ask why you want in, you can't exactly be honest and say, Because it looks good on college applications. And good lies can be so hard to come by now-a-days . . .
I know exactly how that feels. I suggest reading something you've already read before to calm your brain down. I've discovered that A.) six hours of sleep is about all I can manage, and B.) If I lie...
Hey guys. I was just wondering about this recently: How would I recognize an NF in a conversation? Are there certain features to what you talk about, how you talk, etc. that I could look for?
Repetition. Drives me insane. My brother singing the same song over and over again. Review in Math class. Shoveling snow. Boring tasks with no mental stimulation whatsoever which make you do the same...
I absolutely detest them. There's too much noise, I can't think straight, and it's inevitable that some random stranger is going to try to talk to me. Ugh.
I act in a very similar way. People just sort of flow around me. I don't pay a lot of attention to them. I find my own ideas and logic to be much more amusing. As for arrogance, I couldn't agree...
Yes, and no. I will say I apologize. But the whole thing about making me feel terrible . . . never really done that. I don't feel an emotional regret. Are you saying I should fake the emotion?
Oh so true.
Useful, in my not-so-humble opinion.
Yeah . . . the chemical composition of the walls. The fact that I'm probably photophobic to some degree. Rewriting the laws of the English language so it isn't idiotic. Video game ideas. How...
I used to have problems saying it to my own family. Right now, the only people I say it to on a daily basis is my Mom, and only because she says it first. For some reason, it's just awkward for me to...
Sometimes I question my sanity. Mainly when I'm talking to myself, or I've just come up with a really random idea. However, I do believe people around me question my sanity more than I question my...
When I was ten I decided that I was going to be a computer programmer. My Dad and Grandfather were both programmers, and our entire family is very technologically apt. That was six years ago. Now I...
It sound very similar to the way I function. Strangers I avoid contact with. Acquaintances I can make conversation with, but I don't like doing it for a long time. Close friends I can be practically...
You know you're an INTJ when . . . you spend several minutes telling people the right answer, and they refuse to accept it until they finally get it wrong. you contemplate ways to make your...
Thanks Btmangan. You've been a big help.
You know . . . that sounds really accurate. Basically, what you're saying to me, is that she wants more support, correct? The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Like today she was...
I hold a slight interest in it, mainly because it represents something I can play around with in my mind. For instance, imagine you suddenly gained telekinesis. How would you use it? How would it...
Very interesting . . . generally everything that has been said seems to apply to me. Although usually I'm so slow on the uptake, the only reason I'll realize most people are angry or depressed is if...
You know you're an INTJ when . . . You consider the highest moment of your day not that you aced a test everybody else failed without even studying, but rather that you found this clever new move...
Hey guys. Just about a week ago my girlfriend, who is an ISFJ, and I broke up. I've come to terms with it in my own way, but my girlfriend still seems to get very emotional over it. We're still...
1.) Three Favorite Activities 1.) Thinking. Or, as others put it, escaping into my own mind. I love to spend hours at a time just staring into the distance thinking about everything from my...
Whatever I do, it isn't enough. For people my own age, I'm incredibly motivated. Straight A's. Several extra-curricular activities. And, most importantly, I write a lot of computer code, which is...
When you can predict the endings and significant events of most books, movies, and TV shows. When you can walk around the block and not remember if there were clouds in the sky or leaves on the...
Just recently, my girlfriend came to me practically in tears, explaining that she had written a letter to me which I'd get in a few days and that she meant absolutely none of it. She had written it...
I tested as ISTJ for a long time, because my parents are Guardians and because I didn't understand just how theoretical I can be. If I read the ISTJ description, it's close, but . . . INTJ is closer....
I know exactly what you're talking about. I have this obsession with becoming an expert on computers, and I've had obsessions with other things: driving, cards, trigonometry, meteorology, chemistry,...
I'm only in high school, but I have a few plans for my life. For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to be a computer programmer. My dad and grandfather were programmers, so I guess it's just...
Just recently I was talking to my girlfriend, and she mentioned that I made her think a lot, typically through my asking a lot of random questions about her plans for the future and talking about...
It depends on my mood. If I've been having a good day and am relatively energized, people initializing conversations is good. It's one of the few ways I can actually make friends. I met my girlfriend...
Genius - Depends on the subject. And whether or not I care. Math: I'm reasonably intelligent. Computers: I'm reasonably intelligent. Art: can't do it. Not hurting people's feelings: I couldn't be...
Go to Rome. Acquire Ph.D. Live in Atlanta, Georgia. Work for Google. Most important things on my bucket list.
I like math because of it's logical beauty. Looking at math and seeing the perfection that is in it, the ability to calculate anything with infinite precision, is like looking at art for other...
Personally, I find random conversation gives me a headache. When it's just a conversation that is there for the sake of filling the silence with some form of noise, I get annoyed. Why do you need...
. . . I just took the test, but I'm not sure I agree with it. Part of it says I'm outgoing and charming, which is definitely not true. Off hand, I'd say I was one of the three Head types primarily....
Confession: Even though people have told me that I'm intelligent and gifted my entire life, an inner voice keeps telling me otherwise. I keep thinking I'm just not good enough for the goals I've set...
I've actually found that I can't do art. I have nothing against it, and can enjoy it readily enough, but trying to make me do it is like pulling out fingernails: it's hard, and the results aren't...
Thanks Isis. I guess that means I got it down. :proud: And I'll be sure to tell them that.
Thanks for the responses; I didn't realize I'd get so many so quickly. For starters, rednet you make a very good point. And I'm coming to the realization that is what may happen. Isis and...'
