'Welcome and enjoy your time here...

Keep coming back :) Good to have you here...

Hm, I find this a strange question. I've played competitive chess for nearly 25 years and I have the idea that I've met far more INTP's than INTJ's. I do not really believe in the P/J-difference to...

Yes, I did, a couple of times. Being the firstborn child of psychologists played a role in this. Scores varied from 136 to 144. Being top 2% may seem impressive, but as I read on a calender once:...

Interesting question. My guess is that the least likely answer for INTP's is the one that starts with Present.

In most cases, I shrug and keep silent. It is only when people ask me for feedback, that they get the full INTP-correction-treatment. I often forget that people who ask for feedback in many cases...

Welcome Maedays. It's okay no to say too much, there is plenty to read and observe :) Enjoy your time here...

I think we debate in a different way. I often find that extraverts use far too many words to debate and lose themselves in quantity. And yes, they can do this in such a way that I often feel like I'm...

I am a native speaker of Dutch. As a Belgian, I learned French at school, but I feel more comfortable in English, I use both professionally. I have some notions of Italian. Could there be a type...

In the morning, I get up earlier than my family. I take a shower, make coffee and read or surf the internet before leaving for work. It sounds harsh (to non-NT readers) but my least favourite moment...

Hm, this is a classic misinterpretation: INTP's not showing emotions does not mean they don't have any. However, it is true that as an INTP I have often felt it difficult to get in touch with...

I am curious to know whether this applies to other INTP's as well. I consider Sigur Ros great INTP (or enneagram 5) music. Partly because of it's esthetic complexity, but mainly because it is very...

It does sound like the behaviour of an INTP in his teens. This obsession with correctness in language, being precise, is typical. What is also typical with INTP is that they really don't realise how...

I guess the NTJ's. NTP's love of complexity sometimes backfires when designing (and certainly implementing) systems.

The avatar is nice, but a bit too detailed for this small size... 7/10

Atheist INTP

Most importantly, I developed a sense of empathy. I find it much easier to relate to others and thus find it easier to understand them. In return this made it easier to relate to them and gain trust....

6/10 a bit too macho, but might suit you ;)

no, you are not. I'd think it quite appealing to NT's...

In high school, I majored in Science. I never understood why I chose that major since I really did not like Chemistry and Maths. I guess I did not really care what to study. I am pleasantly...

The older I get, the more I find myself relying on F. I see this evolution as a result of becoming a parent and becoming a teammanager. In both roles I have to take care of others. But even apart...

Well yes, it's a good idea, since this forum is about much more than type. You'll enjoy it. Welcome to PerC!

You hit my real question: does one sweat while surrounded by water?

I just noticed that when I take a hot bath, I seem to lose 200 grams. I can not have been that dirty, can I?

9/10 Absolutely disturbing, probably just the way you like it...

The Young Vicotria. Not bad, but we've seen a little too many of this kind lately...

Any thoughts on typing Sigur Ros as a band? IN...

Welcome to the form, nice to see you find your extraverted ways here :)

By far the most melancholic... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww9JS8dJ9fY&feature=fvwrel

welcome to yah yah yah and enjoy the blah blah blah, hope to, well you know the drill...

The obvious: what's your type? Welcome...

The Eye, the 2002 Chinese version.

While driving my car, with my voicerecorder right beside me.

Today I noticed that some people make a lot of gestures while having a phonecall, as if the person on the other line can see them. I happen to know some of those people's type and they were all...

Hm, if getting no feedback is an issue, in my experience with INT's, you should ask for it. It may simply not occur to them to give (especially positive) feedback, but ask for it and you'll get it...

I have to admit that I really am a passive-agressive. Anger is associated with loss of control, which is a horrible thought. So you could say passive-agression is some sort of sublimated anger for...

Careful: to be among such a high concentration of fellow-INTP's might have seriously destabilising effects... Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum...

A local version of Jeopardy. Does that still exist in the US?

Into the Wild tought me that I have finally grown up. As a youngster I would surely have sympathised with Chris, but now I see the selfishness of his choices. Of the depressing type: Never Let Me...

For a Fistful of Dollars (1964). Strange to see a Clint Eastwood that is younger than me... Maybe not the best of all classic Westerns, but still really worth the 94 minutes....

It probably does make them more sneaky...

Won Tons that looked far better than what they tasted like... http://chaxiubao.typepad.com/photos/the_sum_of_hong_kong/p6210023.JPG

I didn't get my drives licence until I was 27, but I've always found cars interesting. 5 years ago I also got my motorcycles licence. Where as a car is a (very nice) tool, the motorbike is mostly...

Welcome, both of you...

Left and Right are such difficult concepts, let alone when you apply them to politics in Europe and North America at once, and I have no clue about the rest of the world...'
