I noticed I have this response to REALLY GOOD singing, like just acoustic singing that is well executed. Sometimes I tear up inadvertently and I feel liek a bitch, so I tend to dry them up so no one notices! or certain classical symphonies and music with minor chords and yes, DetachedRetina in...

I am so glad I came upon this post....not because I can help, but because I can relate.... I'm a 33 year old nurse, have been one for a little over 10 years and while I enjoy the science involved in nursing and the intrigue of overall human existence, I began to sense I was being pulled in...

I was about to make a thread positing the same exact question. I don't understand what the problem is, but like you, I have yet to read the books either, but I find her philosophy sound, so far, a reasonable request. I don't see why people feel the intrinsic right to get help from the...

This and add computers and i would be set.

Damn, NEVER touch it again?? What was it like meth for you?? I don't think i'll really ever make that resolution. I actually almost have a small concern there will be a point (and this point being a decade or two from now) where I will lose all my contacts, no one I know smokes it, i will...

I have a book I read called "This is your Brain on Music" Wonderful book about the correlations between the brain and music. It was a great read for me, and it will probably answer a lot of questions in general about how people respond to music psychologically, physiologically, etc. Not specific...

No particular interest in depressive songs, but maybe you should see what the key and chord make-up is of the songs you enjoy. I've been told (which for me, is 100% true), INTP enjoy songs made up of minor chords and keys, which are not considered "pleasant-sounding" for a lot of other people. I...

Not at all a hippy or an environmentalist. I think people just need to stop being so selfish with how much they use of the resources around them. I don't think that makes me an "environmentalist", it makes me a realist. I'm sure if there was a study or short questionnaire, it would be very...

My dark side is my selfishness in feeling that there are too many kids born every day. I hate hearing someone got pregnant. I don't know how to react. Especially when they have other kids, especially when they didn't plan for and aren't prepared for said kid. Sometimes I feel like putting...

Two of my FAVORITE people: Fiona Apple and Louis C.K. (He is a comedian, but nothing short of a genius--as an artist, in my eyes) I think I would like to start a family with them. Like they can have the babies together and I'll just live there with them... be like the extra wife in that...

Damn! I think that's right on!!! I never noticed that, but yes! When I am talking to someone, I will generally ONLY look at them when they are the ones talking--not to say I enjoy looking at them, I don't like that either, but when I try to make a conscious effort to involve eye contact, that is...

I would say that tends to be the case (extreme emotional displays). Sometimes I can be VERY animated compared to those around me and sometimes I'm even told, "Gosh, Trish, calm down" and people make me feel like I'm outta control when they do that. As if I'm some bipolar in a hypomanic episode...

I LOVE THOSE BOOKS!!!! I read Freakonomics and SuperFreakonomics... both great books on strange statistical matters. I'm a black woman. My name is pretty plain and when I was younger, let's say 6. I can remember telling my mother I hated my name because it was so plain. In hindsight, I'm...

I find creatures in general fascinating (except cockroaches--FUCK cockroaches!), but have never ventured to say that I enjoyed them actively or had any particular fascination with ants.

OMG, I hate when people get all philosphical about their eye color! It's like one of 4 colors, JUST PICK ONE! In addition, your iris literally CAN'T be black! Why is that even an option! Why are people picking it!!??!
