'Hello everyone: I have started an MBTI Meetup social group in Victoria, BC. I have a few people interested so far. However, I would like to get more folks interested before planning an event....

You are a Type 5 with a 6 wing: The Scientist Your trifix is 5w6, 9w1, 3w4. In enneagram theory, you have one type for how you relate to the world (either 8, 9, or 1), one type for how you...

Here is my $0.02: 1) Figure out what fields YOU are interested in. Don't let other people try to sway you with their opinions. 2) Once you figure out what fields you think you will like, come...

If I could hazard a guess, you just haven't figured out what kind of art you want to do. There are so many things that you can do, but you have to find your niche.

Here are a few pictures that I have acquired. My apartment feels so much more alive with some artwork in it lol 7732377324773257732677327

The majority of the time, people say that I look lost or confused. The fact is that when I am observing something, I make a squint similar to Clint Eastwood's. A handful of people have said that I...

Administrative work of any kind. Office Space anyone?  http://www.redstaplerchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/milton.jpg

There was a guy I went through boot camp with that was like that. Very annoying to say the least. Mentally, I think ISTP's are stronger. Working out and getting in shape makes things easier...

What kind of driver are you? Are you cautious? Fast? Cautious and fast. Aggressive? Kind? Most of the time I am kind, but I can really lose my temper during rush hour when I'm...

I buy for the long haul as opposed to day trading. Here is the strategy I use: First, I made a list of the things I am passionate about. After making this list, I figured out who the players were...

Are there any ISTP's that live in BC, near Victoria?

Multi-tool Scuba gear Any automotive tool Any machining tool Firearms Knives Cooking tools I don't really have a favourite tool. Its more about what I accomplish with them.

I feel right at home when I go to the auto hobby club on my base. I also got my open water scuba certification and found scuba to be a welcoming environment as well. Its technical and has an element...

Like Erbse mentioned, I want to see all the cards before doing anything. So that would be a no to a one nighter. A friend with benefits seems more appealing to me.

Not sure if I will be single for the rest of my life. If that is how it turns out, then its cool. I've managed for the past 26 years. I have also gotten to the point where I am tired of searching and...

Laptop - I doubt I will ever go back to a desktop Ranger with a manual shift - More fun than driving an automatic.

Flip a coin or play eny meny miny mo :)

I don't start fights, but I've finished a couple of them.

My best friend thinks that he is an INTP.

Yes that show crossed so many lines back in the day: men degrading women and women degrading men lol I fell in love with the show after seeing the Season 8 episode How Green Was My Apple. I find...

Trailer Park Boys Married With Children Nash Bridges Miami Vice Castle Wings Home Improvement Seinfeld Discovery TLC

1) My ideal jobs would be a power utility lineman, explosive rigger for demolition, or other construction related job. Enough danger to keep me on my toes. These jobs also have an element of...

Usually I start to feel a little uncomfortable when someone I don't know asks me one unrelated question after another. This is especially true when there is no pause between my answer and the next...

I always want to be happy and not take myself too seriously. I want to have more fun with my life. A big bonus would be the ability to share the happiness and fun in a relationship.

I think Peta Wilson would be a good example. Maybe its just the Australian accent. Her demeanor seems very ISTPish to me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7SPaTSHsDM ...

I second this... My parents started doing that to me when I was in 5th grade (17 years ago). I'm sure they had good intentions, but they ended up doing more harm than good. Living away from family...

@ And this is a big one SHE ALWAYS WANTS THINGS TO HAPPEN FASTER THAN THEY DO, AND SHE FEELS WEIRD AND WORRIES A LOT ABOUT THINGS. SHE WANTS HER LIFE TO GO PLANNED. @ She loves learning new...

Here are a few: Curious Quiet observer Realist Adventuous

So what is it about being a mercenary or spy that appeals to you?

I talk slow and my voice is somewhat gravelly. When I am in deep thought (often), I have the 'deer looking into headlights' look. Put all these together, and you could easily mistake me for being...

Sometimes I can act like an INTP. I am interested in theories in addition to thinking about the future. I wouldn't be surprised if I came off as ISTJ to some as well. There are some days where I...

I don't usually have a problem making eye contact with people. If I am having a conversation with someone, I can get distracted by things going on in the background. This is a bad habit that I am...

When I was 15, I sleep walked into my brother's bedroom in the middle of the night and pissed on him. True story

Likewise, I am more upbeat and outgoing when hanging out with good friends.

Will you marry me? XD Answer to the OP question: if there is something that interests you so much that you stay up till 3am reading about it, you should consider it as a career goal. I've done...

I wouldn't consider myself an alpha male. If I was ordered to lead a group of people in a job, I would do it to the best of my ability. If I had a choice, I would turn down the role.

+1 A couple of years ago when I was working for a corporate security company, I was in a similar circumstance to DJ. Initially I liked the people I worked with. Most of them moved on though, and I...

Too late was probably a bad choice of words. What I meant was when a guy becomes so involved with a woman that he sub-consciously forgets about his own life, interests, and friends.

^ Good poem. I didn't understand some parts but I think I get the main idea of it. If a woman told me she was inexperienced, I wouldn't hold it against her. I would really appreciate it. I can...

I learned a lot from my brother's ex-girlfriend. Sometimes she would come home from work and say that she thought someone was stalking her and that she didn't feel safe. My brother would help her out...

If this isn't ISTP ingenuity, I don't know what is lmao  http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BUS-58inVjc/TCPR-Y2wLiI/AAAAAAAAAGw/enlUodzO8Co/s1600/Kerry-King.jpg

I walk around with a poker face most of the time. People sometimes ask if I'm upset or angry and try to force a smile out of me. Usually I just brush it off and move on with my day. If I force a...

Jerry Seinfeld (and everyone in the show as well) George Carlin Russell Peters

I'm a bit confused too haha. As long as darks and colours are separated from the white, who gives a s***? I don't have a specific way of cleaning things. I just get it done and move on with my...

I have learned a lot from all of you. The insight that you all provided on here helped make my life a lot easier. Don't ever change who you are. Cheers! :)

No they were completely random encounters.

With the right girl, you will not have to worry about what to talk about. Your mental barriers will break down and the conversation will flow naturally for a long time. You will not realize it until...

I get along very well with people who are laid back, unassuming, and easygoing. People who try to fill in the blanks without having the balls to ask me are not off to a good start. Most of the...

Forgot to mention that wailing on a punching bag or going on a shooting spree in Hitman: Blood Money helps me cool off lol'
