Ooh! Ooh! I know this one! Two Kinds of Judgement And I can answer it with an essay by one of my favorite essayists. As for worrying about the future, I've done plenty of that, and I find it...

I don't mind text-based smileys, and I use them sparingly, but I think the image ones are kinda tacky. I'll use exclamation marks, but not more than one per sentence like some people do....

Pon Farr?

What a scary question. I don't even like to think about what would hurt me, and judging from the number of off-topic or snarky replies to this thread, I'm not the only one. However, it's also an...

ESTP (glances up at type) Close?

Uh, video? Am I missing something? Anyway, thanks :) I think our emotional energy can be powerful if we can learn to use it, but of course that is by definition awfully difficult for us. Apathy...

I like array or clutter. Those fit pretty well.

Nope, don't worry, you're on to something. Here, read this. INTP - Chapter 4: Busting the Myth that INTPs are Not Emotional Eerie, isn't it? I'm definitely like that.

Sdsinger -- Cute! They're attractive little... logos? I don't know quite what I'd term these. I particularly like the INFJ one. Looks like you put a lot of effort into those.

Oh hey, look, someone cleaned up the sticky threads section on the INTP subforum since the last time I was here.

Silly people! Everyone knows that a group of INTPs is called a convention. This may have a modifying subspecies label applied to it, such as Star Trek convention, in which one can observe many...

Been there, done that. Still kinda there, actually. You're wanting freedom that we teenagers just don't get easily. You're wanting the kind of friendships that you don't really get until college,...

I have been diagnosed with depression and take medication for it. Not severe depression, and not a high dose, but if I don't take the meds, I still notice and it makes me think less clearly, sleep...

I got 64% Driver, 64% Analytic and 58% Amiable the first time, went back and changed one answer to another equally valid option, and then it gave me 64% Analytic, 64% Amiable and 58% Driver. I guess...

also, lol, INTP isn't a disease. XD Oh, and you're 14. Guys your age usually don't even have dating on their radar as a Thing They Might Want To Do. Just install some dumb anime dating sim on your...

Everybody will give you a different answer. The only way you'll find out how it'll be for you is to wait and experience it. Why? Because the idea that your experience is already set in stone is...

I hope you aren't afraid I'll be judgmental of you and leave or anything like that. Even if you do something I don't agree with, I will always care about you. I said something along those lines...

Hmmm.... it didn't specify much about that. It said you can conceal them--does that make them invisible or intangible? Big difference. I would say that just making them invisible isn't concealing...

Extraordinary Power: Grants you the ability to fly and/or levitate. You never grow tired. You may conceal your wings. Hello? Why isn't anyone picking up on this? If you sleep 8 hours a night...

I'm guessing, a hot one. Being chased by girls who like hot dudes. Which is most girls. And if that's why he's being chased, I'm going to go out on a limb and say he's probably caught on and that's...

Hehe. For me, it's just that I don't have to pretend I'm all bouncy and enjoying myself any longer... once I drop the INTP chameleon act when I walk in my front door, it's like, aw who am I kidding,...

Usually I can be out at a big friendly thing of some sort, and if I like/know the people well enough, I can be super friendly... it's when I get home that I go ...

When I get sick, it usually goes like this... >get sick >internal debate about how debilitating the virus is, and whether it justifies missing whatever lecture I'm dragging myself to >gets...

The bushes rustled, causing the INTPs pitching their tents to brace themselves, their hands flying onto swords and spellbooks alike; they were prepared for any chance of an ISTJ or, forbid it, an...

Just in case no one else has posted this one yet... 201738

I would probably do the weird, awkward thing and go, Why? without stopping to think. The surprise would make me instantly question without remembering to be friendly. If he delivered an honest,...

at 4:10 -- PICARD. Answered instantly. Fair enough. Like, that guy with the sweater tied around his waist... that's something women sometimes do when they're on their period and should never...

The reference was an anime reference. Specifically, I was referencing L. Lawliet of Death Note (a well-known INTP) and his tendency to say things along the lines of, I'm almost sure... but there's a...

I wouldn't say she's looking for praise--or, probably not consciously if she is. But I do know what she is doing, because I've done it, and what you've seen from her lines up. INTPs tend to hold...

Heh. And the chances of my finding a male INFJ who corresponds with my values are...? Well, there is a chance. ...A chance. Male INFJ and female INTP: this pairing couldn't get a whole lot...

Nope, I'm afraid you've got that the wrong way around. Ti is the analytical one, remember? Ti is all metacognition and examining your own thoughts and behaviors and attitudes. Fi is the one that...

Yes, I'm here. I'm waiting for an actual point when I can actually spend an hour replying to your questions. I don't like to answer people halfway, and I'm in college, so free time... In fact, I have...

It is sought after. Of course, it depends a lot on what skills you come out with, what you've made the effort to learn even if it isn't required, what certifications you've gotten, and whether you...

Hm, I don't know about whether they'd always evaluate your question first. That might vary from person to person. I think some INFPs would probably go along with your hypothetical questions for...

That's more Ne than Fe. It's spontaneous. If you came from the moon, you'd still be able to do that--you don't need to know anything about culture to use it, which one can't say about Fe. And a...

I would say INTJ, then.

I think INTPs are more patient, but INTJs are more persistent. INTPs are slower to get angry or frustrated, I think, and more likely to calmly approach things and sort them out before getting...

I'm with Agelastos. Never felt the need to rebel against my parents, but nonconformist I am. Except... most INTPs are nonconformist anyway. We can be totally unique nonconformists together!...

I don't know if that's relevant... that's more of a personal ethics thing. I think Ti would be the most likely to say that, though. INFPs don't really use either. Te is inferior for them,...

Hm, I don't know. You seem awfully close to INTP to me... Can you explain Ni? Do you understand it well? It often seems that INJs are the only ones who really understand it. I recently wrote...

That's pretty accurate, but make absolutely sure you don't mix up feeling and emotion. That's where a lot of INFP stereotypes come from. Fi draws on the inner kernel of basic humanity that everyone...

People who LITERALLY taste words, or literally see sound, or literally see words in color, are called projector synesthetes. People who just know that Wednesday is medium sky blue and that 2 is...

Read Ender's Game and The Little Prince. People are a part of objective reality. If you want your logic to be accurate, you must take people into account. They're difficult to work with, but you...

I just deleted 930 thread subscriptions from my control panel. All this time I've had the server saving subscriptions to every thread I've ever posted in... I can actually use that tool now for what...

*gathers composure* I really should know by now to avoid this sort of thread. Dratted all-or-nothing inferior Fe. *sniff* But seriously, guys. Hugs. Specially you, ThisModernLove. Thank you for...

Aw, you guys. I just want to say--you don't need to prove yourselves to us. We INTPs have the same issue communicating our ideas sometimes, so yeah... And I don't know about the rest of my kind,...
