How old are you?

self-referential

What is that supposed to mean?

Are you trying to compensate for lack of academic grit by engaging in tangential philosophical daydreaming in order to maintain a sense of adequacy despite failure, or are you just a really weird nerd? Tell more.

Also: Welcome

That i am as old as i feel? Age as a physical state of being put into context by the mind is the self referencing the self.

I have passed through academic filters and the normative paradigm of success or adequacy don't really interest me so I guess i am just a really weird nerd. lol

Thanks for the welcome.

Are you actually going to send me some Grade A Cali weed tho?

If you wrap it in a few air tight bags, it should make it through customs, right?

I think it might be risky. I don't smoke pot, but almost everyone else in LA does. It is not hard to get. Are you addicted? Are you able to go a week without weed? Personally I hate being overly dependent on anything.

I hard for me to differentiate as to whether I'm 'addicted' or not.

When I have intended to quit, I have.

But these days I have no intention of quitting.

It's my indulgence.

What are the primary pros and cons for you using, both short term and long term? Are you sure you need it as much as you think you do?

Primary Pro's:

Being stoned. aha. No , I don't know how to describe the primary reason, the primary reason is how it makes me feel and it's hard for me to conceptualise that... I feel 'haywire' when I'm not high, whereas when I'm high I'm grounded. (Ironically)

Other pro's include help sleeping, and eating, eases anxiety, works as pain relief, and offers inspiration.

Primary Cons:

It's toll on my bank balance.
It's toll on my memory.
It's toll on my lungs?

I think my mind is destined to always be in overdrive, and I can't think of a suitable substitute for weed in helping me with this issue.

For example, I've had no weed since yesterday, and just look at what I've done to the forum since then, lul.

Dang. This is off-topic from the thread, but Sinny informed me you were having trouble viewing the forum (www.infjs.com), and that you were confused about this. She mentioned you thought you had an arrangement with the staff? This is confusing. You posted a picture of a man, from the waist down, with a dick. You told another member to suck that dick, and then you told them to go to hell, because you very simply disagreed with a thread of theirs, and threw a tantrum in response. This man had a rather large dick that reached to his knees. Erect, I imagine, despite the direction it was pointing. I suspect its sheer mass caused it to point south. I recognize I'm not a member of staff here, but there is a great community on this forum. Please don't treat them like you did our community. There are minors here, as there are on our forum. If you want to get banned again here, try not to post a man with a massive dick.

Not that I want to piss anybody off.. But Dang was asking 'about me' in a thread entitled 'about you'... and your post is just as much, if not more, off topic as his. Couldn't PM him?

It seems you take issue with the fact that I chose to get myself banned by posting a picture of a man with a large dick as opposed to a small or average sized dick. It was not porn by the way. Plus why are you so hung up on nudity? I have been to nude beaches. Children see adult penises of all sizes every day in other non puritanical countries when they go to clothing optional beaches. I knew I would get banned, but I also wanted to see how the mods would react. A three month ban for showing a small picture of a naked man seems a little excessive don't you think? And you are worried about minors? First of all, how many minors are on INFJ forum? Second, are you aware of what can be found on the internet these days? A teen who happens to stumble upon a pic of a dick on INFJ forum would probably yawn and then Google "gang bang porn" or something. I am a straight dude, but nudity does not freak me out, not even male nudity, unless of course we are discussing people who are very unattractive. I did post said pic. I did tell Eventhorizon to suck it. I did not tell him to go to hell. I said that I would see him in hell. Big difference. I find it interesting that despite his toxic presence on INFJ forum, which consists of berating liberals and generally being ignorant and obnoxious in as many ways as possible, he has never been disciplined. I got fed up with the entire site because I realized you would never do anything about his presence on that site, despite the fact that virtually everyone over there can't stand him and wished he would go away. Don't paint the picture of me being some out of control maniac either. Everything I did was an experiment and fully intended. Why do you think I removed my avatar, profile pic, and post pics in advance? So now INFJ forum has a new and improved look, Eventhorizon has started yet another hostile thread, and I am banned for three months for my actions. Congrats. I prefer it here anyhow. Considering muir is now banned from INFJ forum and INTP forum, I won't be surprised if I end up getting banned from both as well. I don't want to be a martyr. I think they are foolish. But let's treat this as a learning moment. I believe I have made some valid points here. You may or may not agree. But do you really feel the INFJ mods have been unbiased and fair when it comes to my punishment and Eventhorizon's lack there of? There are many members there who feel that I really contributed positively to the forum. How many feel the same way about EH, and how many feel that he has continually crossed the line when it comes to civil discourse? Let's call a spade a spade. He is a liberal bashing troll. That is all. So if you would prefer to have his type on your forum then be prepared for more people like me to become disgusted and leave as I did. And for the record, I am an INFJ, while he clearly is not. So I find it interesting that you seem to have overreacted on my behalf, while you give him a free pass. To conclude, sometimes a picture of a man with a large penis is simply a picture of a man with a large penis. And sometimes when a mod spots said picture, the mod freaks out due to personal issues and a puritanical perspective. I hope you get something out of this post. And I hope you take my comments to heart. I know being a mod can be challenging, especially when dealing with adults who don't like being controlled and censored. But I stand by what I say. And if you ever want me to send you a picture of a naked man with a big dick just let me know. I bet I can find another one somewhere online. One more thing? Would I have received the same punishment if I had posted a pic of a naked woman? Doubt it. Later.

Hating on one of the 16 types seems pretty small minded to me. Should I assume you fit the estp stereotype which is not particularly flattering to be honest? You aren't even an intp. You only have one chance to make a first impression. And yours was pretty rude. Plus Pokemon sucks. You seem like the type who is prone to discriminate against groups which you do not belong to simply because they are not your own. That is a wonderful quality to possess. Enjoy it. And good day.

Yeah, TMB is actually a pretty cool guy. I poked and prodded him with quite ruthless bants at one point and he handled it like a champ.

Also, ESTPs are fucking awesome. I have all the time in the world for both ESTPs and ISTPs.

What's your gender?

Female

How did you find out that you were INTP?

I did some googling about 3 years ago after being frustrated with my reserved, seemingly abnormal nature and discovered that I was an introvert. While this explained a lot, it was insufficient because it didn't account for my 'weirdness' and shortly after more googling, I came across an MBTI test online, took it and voila, I discovered I was an INTP and thank God I did because it explained everything.

How did you find out about this forum?

Through more googling.

Do you have a partner/lover?

Not yet. Sadly.

Do you have any kids?

Nope. But would like to adopt one or two when I'm with the right person later on in life.

Do you have any pets?

No. I can't because I live in a flat (apartment). But I will probably get me a dog from a shelter when I get yard space. Hopefully, soon.

My name is Les.

I am from North-West Alabama, Florence to be precise, United States.

I am 47.

Male

I was involved in a session of something I call "link-diving" in which I begin with a topic in mind and follow links just to see what connections I can make. The result was a test on a website. I took the test on a whim, I never gave much credence to such things, considering them as meritless as a chinese zodiac. However, the results stopped me cold and I haven't been the same since.

I found this forum through another "link-diving" session.

I am married. I often say it is the worste mistake she ever made.

My wife had one child from a previous marriage, I have no biological children, and thank the gods for that.

I currently have three pets; a min-pin, a chihuahua, and a cat.

I watched a Video on the Youtube Channel "Game Theorists" about the Game "Life is Strange" where the Myers Briggs test was used for something i don't remember. I got interested and too the test.

How did you find out about this forum?

I was thinking about a school project I did with friends a few years ago. It was an acting class and they were terrible actors. I wondered what people thought about INTPs as actors since I was alway complimented about my acting. So I found this Forum via a simple Google search for "INTP as actors"

Unfortunately... I don't.

Nope

Good morning! I'm new!!!
Name's Ucenna. Though I will respond to "John", "You!", "That guy!", and others depending on context.

I'm an INFJ/INFp by type. At least I think I am. I stopped taking tests after I understood the system. If I could predict my type based on my answers, taking a test is less meaningful.

If we are going with dichotomies rather than functions I could theoretically be a INTJ or INTP.

Actually, I ended up coming here because I'd like to see others thoughts on MBTI/Socionics/Functions and in general. I've been directed to a few threads on this forum that were very informative and packed with information, and I thought it was time to hop on. After all, I do have ideas of my own I'd like to share.

Nice to meet you all!

Welcome to the forum :)

We've got a fair mix of both advocates and skeptics of typology. Activity on that front seems to have died down of late, but I'm sure there's more than enough people willing to correct your thinking take you up on a conversation.

Short intro - I am here because I recognize I have some reoccurring traits and tendencies that I would like to correct/build on. Some are strengths, some are weaknesses both categories need work. Research is key and having people with the same oppositions should be beneficial.

Respectfully,
Lifesaver

What? :confused:...shouldn't you change the question to fit your answer or something?...[/s is not for sarcastic].

Also, IIRC, I haven't actually introduced myself...but I won't, because 1) it's 2017, and 2) being mysterious (unless you have too)

No, I don't think that it is my place to change the question and if I did take it upon myself to change the question the significance of my own truth stated would fall along the wayside. Isn't the purpose of this to get to know people?

What is your name?

I'd rather be called Disturbed or KimDuHan

Where are you from?

Born in Los Angeles, California and currently living in Greece and trying to move to Japan.

How old are you?

29

What's your gender?

Male

How did you find out that you were INTP, or other type?

I took tests many times. And I have went over some of the functions with other people who seemed to be quite knowledgeable in the MBTI function types. I tested as ENFP from a friend who put a lot of pressure on my personal decision and choices. After removing myself from my narcissistic parents and friends. I finally moved from Los Angeles to Greece because I went to get married to someone I thought understood me(INTP), and I thought understood her(INTJ).

I won't go into the details of the poor decisions and disturbed mind I had which was unraveled to my INTJ partner sharing very insightful psychology books from Asian authors who had written about their personal struggle with their own culture and abusive parents. To get to the point, I'm a huge mess and still in recovery and will be for years to come but at least I know a psychology term as to what I am supposed to be called, "disturbed character." You can wiki it for more information.

How did you find out about this forum?

I just searched on bing INTP Forum because ever since I moved from America and I cannot speak Greek yet and do not intend to as I am moving to Japan within a year or two anyways. I decided to keep to myself as I stay in this country. There are personal reasons and other reasons I wish not to share.

Do you have a partner/lover?

Yes I have an INTJ wife.

Do you have any kids?

No, it's best if we don't as long as we are still in Greece.

Do you have any pets?

Many cats/kittens almost all saved from the street, and 2 dogs atm also saved from the street.

Do you work any where?

I work at GoTranscript.com and I'm currently an audio transcriber which I picked up in August of 2017. I have an average rating of 3.9/5 on my work and made $31 dollars in 2 weeks.

Are you looking for more opportunities? IF so how far are you willing to go?

I'm also looking for more opportunities for work and to earn money so that I could get out of Greece and Greece pays ER doctors 2.50 euros can hour so things are very bad... My only bet is my American passport, and American Address I can put up to find American jobs from online and do freelance work. I'm willing to learn any skill, study anything at this point and effectively and proficiently level up my game in any area of expertise or field. My life currently depends on it because in 1 year my deadline is either homeless in Greece or in Japan somehow. It must be done within a year because I've pretty much ran out of funds already and I'm lasting on fumes now, as well as leeching off my wife and her funds. I think I need some advice in a direction that will allow me more than a solid $2 dollars can hour. I'm willing to work 16+ hours a day 7 days of the week if necessary and already have been for the past 3 weeks. I am able to go on because living in Greece and knowing that ER doctors making $2.50 an hour and getting fired because some hospitals are going bankrupt and need to pay the doctors even less. Well, I don't see any opportunity in this country. And honestly, making a living when you've been a virgin for 27 years living with your parents and finally moving out and learning to grow up in a country that doesn't even give me an opportunity is making me more desperate than imaginable.

What have you been doing in your life before your difficult plan to financial freedom?

I was a procrastinating pathological egotistical lying internet gamer troll who didn't have a life besides watching anime, collecting quotes to keep myself in the delusion that I was going to become successful using the law of attraction. Now I'm facing who I am, understanding I have a limited amount of time, window of opportunity and that I'm going to have to learn, study, explore, research, educate myself every single day. Mentally, physically, psychologically towards healthy goals, even nutritionally I have picked better things to eat. I realized to take responsibility even for things I am not fault at and at by doing so I can overturn and overcome many issues. There is only the limited stream of energy I can work with everyday I wake up to the hour that hits me and I become either so sleepy or my eyes dry out and become blurry that's when I sleep. I don't care if something is easy or hard, I just see it as something to do. To complete to accomplish, to figure out an estimation of my time and energy and realistic goal setting with plans of not burning myself out too quickly. I understand that I'm in a marathon called life. It's not a race because marathons take many decades and people have setbacks all the time. And because I understand that I'd understand if people have their dark days. At least since I'm in my mid-life crisis as we speak I can relate to all those who are going through some hell or depression in their life. I can understand this intellectually however I will not respond or show an emotional face since that's just how I naturally am an INTP with an array of introverted intellectual understanding of things. My energy can be used more productively than to force myself to create a face that is appropriate to the emotional circumstance or situation. In most cases I will give my usual emotionless face and say whatever is affecting me emotionally or to serious cases with a stern and serious face traumatizing or triggering.

Do you have any dreams or goals?

Absolutely, my dream used to become an olympic gold medalist who beats Usain Bolt in the 100 meter or Mike Powell's world record in the long jump. I realized it's a far-fetched childish dream or not if a miracle happens that I am financially supported, with great coaches and chefs to prepare my meals while I train all day like I used to when I was younger breaking my own record little by little almost on a daily basis. However, I have a different dream and it's more of a political one. I found the reason why I wanted to be those things. It's to be a role model. Not to be the best in something but to step into a higher place so that I could share a message to others mostly inspirational and motivating ones. Of course, understanding how people live in different parts of the world would help right? Yes, I don't think can do that as an INTP that would be too exhausting. So I've decided that I want to be honest to myself no matter if I achieve my goals or dreams. I'm going to start off with facing reality honestly and to understand my situation so that I can survive and not so much at the expense of others as I feel like a machiavellian.

What are your current interests/hobbies?

Anime, Games, Psychology, MBTI, Metaphysical, Self-development, listening to what people are saying (I'm an audio transcriber it's my job and I don't find it to be that bad except the pay and harsh ratings I think are unfair), TV series could be in any language as long as it has English subtitles, conscious breathing exercises that help to center myself when I feel unbalanced. Youtube videos, day dreaming, and surfing the web to see what is out there, letting my curiosity run it's course.

If you had the money, what would you do?

Here are things I won't stop doing even if I do have money. Studying up on subjects, reading articles, watching youtube videos, documentaries, TED Talks, Self-development, Financial freedom, Investments, Compounding interest, playing games maybe gameplay commentaries from time to time uploading to Youtube, watching anime, sharing my personal opinion on different subjects in websites that allow me to speak freely, including uploading Youtube videos. Getting myself involved in an online community such as this and perhaps meet in real life. Travel to different countries, learn different languages, I'm learning Japanese atm only at N4 level. Learn everything I need to know about how to run a business and have permanent financial freedom and build upon my financial knowledge in this world so I can keep myself sharp, focused. Also, I'd like to pay someone to do the things I'm not good at and focus on making money or earning a living to keep this economic cycle going. If someone wants to pay me for something they aren't interested in doing I also see value in that trade. I think I just wouldn't stop trading my services because I understand how difficult it is to sustain yourself in any situation.

How can someone contact you?

PM me, I have a Facebook, Email, Skype, Discord, Youtube, Game accounts if not I can always make one, Steam, Twitter, Instagram. Whatever I don't have i am open-minded enough to join.

What are some reasons to contact you?

If you'd like to chat with me send me a message with more than 1 word phrases and greetings. Bring with you at least 1 topic or question you'd like to ask or chat about with me. You can even talk about religious and political ones. No subject is off topics with me. If I feel something is too dangerous to share with you, I'll let you know. You'll know that I'm at least going to be genuine about how I feel and think about certain matters.

As time goes by, unless I have a reason to stay here. I may end up drifting away to other websites. Seeking for a place for me to feel like a part of a warm communities. So far, Quora seems to be a place I visit quite often.

I was born with an incurable case of cynicism. At my baptism, I looked into the eye of the priest and made him a nihilistic atheist.
