I clash so hard with INTJs and ISTJs. They're easily my least favorite types.

Nevermind free will. Suppose the universe is mechanistic and deterministic. What about qualia and emotion? They are real to me, but not found in any universe. Where does the explanation for sensation...

That's very rude. Stop mocking people who need legitimate help with their INTP boyfriends...

proselytizers

never been in one

I hated abstract mathematics. Real analysis and number theory were so boring. Always seemed so pedantic and couldn't relate to any of it. More applied flavors were interesting to me. Stochastic...

hypochondria and schizoid are probably the main ones, if they count at all as 'disorders'.

Sorry but you are a high school student with no formal exposure to physics yet you claim to understand some of the deepest topics in theoretical physics. Nobody is going to take you seriously. If you...

I understood this as consequentialism vs. deontology, both of which I cannot disagree with as a moral nihilist. But finding consequentialism less objectionable than deontology, I voted for the former.

People seek in their partners what they lack in themselves. So it could also be a statement of humility.

Such a rebel.

Regardless of whether it's dead, philosophy is not science, and shouldn't be treated as such. This seems to me to be the root of this conflict.

That would really suck.

There should be a rule to forbid new threads on IQ tests and religious affiliation (or lack thereof). These threads come up over and over again, and without exception, tend not to provoke any new...

It's like Drake's equation, only more depressing.

It's just a farmer's almanac. People mystify it too much. If the I Ching really had anything relevant to say about the universe, what is the source of it's power?u3000Is it logical deduction? Or...

I thought the title was an euphemism for masturbating or sex. I'm sick minded...

You might relate to this

Politicians are wont to cant. Does that count? Also I like using uncommon meanings of common words, like: pace the bulls, the economy's performance last quarter has been quite pedestrian.

Gender stereotypes, when applied broadly to the entire population as a whole, tend to be empirically true. Hence why people make them. There is no reason to be infuriated. People who make...

Take him to Caltech Jet Propulsion Laboratory

clearly you seem to care about nihilism

Venice. They suck, so it's more challenging. :D

Woah!! I knew von Neumann was smart, but I didn't know he was so smart that he could theorize things despite being dead. (John von Neumann died in 1957.)

I would choose all INTJs, maybe with one ENTJ thrown in to act as their leader and manage external relations. The INTJ quality is best suited for achievement in this world.

My 2 rules: 1. Never live by any life rules. 2. Never create any self-referential logical paradoxes.

LOL, so caustic! :dry:

That sounds like something I would do too... We're very afraid of initiating emotional or physical contact. When you sent him mixed messages, in his eyes, you rejected him. If you want him, I...

Yes. Iron is an essential mineral; a lack of iron will cause severe anemia and/or death.

Sounds like you need NT friends. :D Are you in college?

Why force? Aside from eating and breathing, we don't have the motivation to force ourselves into anything. INTP shyness is more likely due to nihilism, solipsism or laziness than anxiety.

Up until college I had no social life. I had acquaintances but lacked friends that I connected with on a personal level. I only started having a social life when I met other INTPs with similar...

How recalcitrant of her to be so non-amorous! I like your use of the word 'defiantly' there. On first glance it seems to be a typo for 'definitely', but the sentence nonetheless makes sense. A very...

What is the universe? Bubbling quantum fields and curved space-time. One day we'll figure it out...

I have to challenge the assumption in the thread title. Do INTPs and ENTJs get along at all? I can't speak for all INTPs, but my personal answer is 'no'. Not that I dislike them, but interactions...

In freshman year, on weekends when I was bored but didn't want to deal with people, I would walk long distances in random directions to explore the city I was in. That was a fascinating and memorable...

Watch TV Convert to any religion Become a politician

He's doing his PhD? He's probably busy as hell... Possibly so busy he can only respond to your messages once every few days. That's the only insight I can offer... INTPs are terrible people. If...

1. Middle name, MBTI type, and enneagram if you want to include it: N/A; INTP; Nope 2. What is your favorite color? Pink 3. What is the capital of Assyria? You mean 'what was' the capital of...

Emotionally manipulative, rude, an asshole- I'm all of the above... So I can't really help you here. But at least I'm honest? :crazy: We're no good at relationships. Our natural state is solitude....

Wouldn't work on me. I go to the bookstore for the books, not the unexpected acts of courtship.

I can sort of relate to the OP. Going into college I had broad interests and it was difficult, even agonizing, to pick a college major. How I ended up deciding was I just tried everything I could...

It's INTPish to not conform to stereotypes. Therefore, everything I do is INTPish. But since everything I do is INTPish, I just conformed to a stereotype, and therefore everything I do is not...
