Hmm, I'd not like being bullied or threatened. But barring that? I don't think the labor would be a problem if it was suitably mindless. Just because I'm doing it doesn't mean I have to be thinking...

As a woman growing up in the 70's, I quickly learned that, by and large, nobody (male or female) in my circle was interested in hearing me talk about the things that interested me. As a child, that...

Oh, god, didn't even think about that crap. I was thinking laws. Yeah, if it is some sort of corporate culture idiocy that's supposed to motivate me or something... I will admit to digging my heels...

Some factors come into play- Does the rule make sense? Does following it do harm? How enforced is the rule? Most of the time, I follow rules because they mostly make sense, and it's more...

INTP here. It depends, for me. If it is something I want to get over with, I'd like to get it over with. I usually am not the one in charge of a group, so that's usually not a factor. I'm always...

TBH, I have neither the attention span nor emotional energy to hold a grudge. So, am I going to brood and lash out? Nope. I will even probably treat you civilly, but I can functionally cut you out of...

That the lyrics (number of syllables) follows the Fibonacci sequence just makes it even more INTP'ish.

Are all INTP's atheists? Probably not, though I am.

I'm glad you put in color ranges instead of just single colors. I really don't have 'favorites' in...anything. But I do have types of colors I like and don't like....

I don't want to talk to anyone on the phone (I HATE talking to people on the phone. I can do it, but...ugh). I can text with the dumb phone I currently have, and most of the rest of the stuff I do...

Not at all...hate confrontation. Upset people in my face and trying to give my 2 cents only to have them yell about how they feel about stuff and how do you rebutt their FEELINGS? Ugh. Makes me both...

My personal experience? We fake it better because expectations are higher and we are penalized more for not meeting them. So, I'd say we come in two flavors. 1. Those who manage to at least act like...

I'm an atheist myuself, find religion fascinating, though. I don't consider people who are religious to be stupid or bad (inherently, there's stupid and bad people in all factions). I'm also an...

What would I want with ruling the world? I don't even want to be in management or retail because I'd have to deal with people. Ugh.

Inevitable, thus far. I'm not looking forward to it, but more dying than death itself. Since I don't believe in an afterlife and death seems to involve a loss of conscious thought, how could I mind...

Stopped talking, usually. Seems to work. I mean, I'm loyal as hell in the few relationships I've had of that nature. Seriously, breaking up is hard, hits all my flaws hard (hating drama, emotions,...

I don't want to deal with people in the real world. I'm pretty sure I'd not want to permanently mindshare with any, including INTP's. Now, temporary and occasional? Sure. But a collective...

Almost all of them. I don't think there's another NT in my whole family. Dad is an SJ, Mom? SP. Sisters, all SF and vary only between J and P. I'm a definite outlier..

I just deal with it. I'm 50, so they are pretty aware by now that I'm not a party animal. So I can generally find a quiet corner with an ereader once I've made as much rounds as I can when I barely...

Carefully, like a bomb about to go off-- the bomb not being feelings, but attempting to analyze MINE. Ugh....just...no.

Eh, got an approachable face or something. Maybe that helps? Which is weird, since most of the time, I'm rolling my eyes, internally.

Same way I handle grown folks and small talk. Lots of nodding, and agreeing noises, mostly.

Actually, it is less an unreasonable standard so much as it is a very selectively applied standard. In other words, heterosexual couple walking down the street holding hands? Cute or ignored. Gay...

Oh, I get this one... I have family who talk about LGBT people flaunting what they are, and by flaunt, basically, as long as they mention their significant other, hold hands, do anything relationship...

If people are being asked about themselves and answering, that's the usual 'getting to know you' bit. I don't see a problem with it. If people are getting flack from people for how they present...

INTP - Motivational speaker/telemarketer, with a quota.

Money and boredom, I can find interesting things to do after work. Hell, if really easy, during work, inside my head.

I don't, never got it. I not only don't want to write what I'm feeling when I'm feeling it... I damn sure won't want to read it after. Now, sometimes I wish I had the follow through to write down...

Depends. If it's a guy talking about sports and fixing cars, I'm not interested either. Male or female, I have my interests. More men share them than women, but that's actually changing a bit, so...

Usually what breaks through the indifference is the hatred of emotional drama and (being as I'm 50), desire to continue to pay rent, eat, etc.

Can we go fictional? Because then I'd pick vibranium. Hey, good enough for Captain America's shield...

Um...being thirteen? Other than that, don't know. I never actually said that to anyone. I suppose they'd have to do something REALLY bad to...well, had that before, but not since I've been an adult,...

I guess if it were a specific type of party... instead of random people wandering around making small talk, dancing, and, drinking, and flirting... not exactly my favorite actifvities (and all...

Some things I do become routine...it's convenient for things I'm not going to enjoy anyway (like getting up, work related things, etc). But otherwise, yeah, boring.

Then there's what you call 'obfuscating'. Telling the truth in a way that is advantageous, selective truths, etc. Given time, I can do that, and do it consistently, since the advantages and such will...

I can hardly remember actual details of events, much less make them up, am terrible at acting, so.. I usually don't bother.

As noted, the dry sense of humor and sarcasm (which I guess are Ne) are there too. But yeah, I AM the 'I need a random fact' person in the family. Hell, I was practically the 'phone (or ask, since I...

I was in choir for years, so it's probably okay... but I hate soloing.

Asexual and no, I don't date. And don't miss it. I did when I was in my early 20's. Just the pressure because you're supposed to, and supposed to WANT to. Once I got over that (rather quickly, like...

Third out of four, all girls.. (not counting steps).

While I won't say the music doesn't matter, the only thing that seems to tie the songs I like together is more about the lyrics.

Not me. I mean, I could probably figure out the problem, and even figure out how to address it. But, especially when dealing with people with issues, I couldn't tell them in a way that'd get them to...

Ugh, no. Other than kids under, say, ten. If they want to hug, or whatever, I'm okay with it. Above that, no. If it seems mandatory, then it's all... ...

Ironically, most of that list probably wasn't what we'd call rich, other than a few of the more recent Internet innovators. Full of academics, philosophers, and a few politicians. *grin* Fame and...

I'd rather just be comfortable, financially. As in, not worry about paying the bills and have the few material things I like available to me. I suppose if you find an INTP that 'getting rich' is a...

1. Nope. Third out of Four. 2. Nope. Raised by my Dad.

Helps if others start it. Then you can simply shake your head, add examples, repeat what they said in a question form, adding in 'interesting' or 'too bad' or whatever sort of response it would seem...

Start out sticking to the side, watching people and taking a little advantage of the free drinks. With a couple of drinks (that's not INTP, that's being 'old enough to know better' when it comes to...

I could see an INTP working for/with someone who's evil (probably not even noticing) and supplying them with ideas and tools, as the evil person just ponders something in their presence, like.. 'If I...

If I'm playing an RPG, I pick my class one of two ways. 1. RP reasons, if RP changes based on class choices. (Dragon Age, a favorite, is a good example of this.) 2. Whatever kills the beastie...
