    MBTI cartoons

    I like your cartoons. Can I commission a work? Can you do a female ISFJ next, and I'll send you a photo of my ex so it looks just like her and can you please jab a pair of scissors right into each of her eyeballs and have a pack of rabid dogs chasing her? :evil:

    Sacrifice vs Vocation

    I'm not sure I understand your issue exactly...I was tempted to read your previous posts but I am too lazy...if I'm way off the mark, sorry….but I'm sure you know that you need both satisfaction and sacrifice to achieve your goals. I vaguely recall something about the reward circuit part of the...

    Family and default love

    Did you have an abusive childhood? If you did, you should check out books on that. They can be helpful. Hmm, judging by some of the replies, I think some people definitely had abusive childhoods. :p Dang, people. Anyway, you write things like you/we being "required" to love family or that...

    INTP and ADD?

    I think you're in good company Nihilmatic, plenty of people have complained about that on here. I was able to cope I think because maybe I was more INTx I think. Skipping classes also helped a hell of a lot though. :p For what it might be worth, there's this if you are interested...

    Is Software Development/Roboticization Unethical?

    The scary part of losing one's crappy job isn't the "crappy" part of it, it's the "job" part of it. The Manna link you posted talks about middle management, but the bots won't be replacing management, they'll be replacing--er, I mean "liberating" the low-wage workers. 3.5 Million of them in the...

    Is Software Development/Roboticization Unethical?

    As far as ethics, Inquisitor, not sure there is an answer, I mean, you'd just be standing in front of a big huge tidal wave. This subject always tends to get me a little depressed. Why oh why did I click on this thread??? It's nice of you to think about these things though, and I think you are...

    Can anyone relate?(especially you INTPs)

    I don't have anything INTP-specific for you but have you ever thought about sleep apnea or sleep disturbance of some kind? Do you know if you snore? Do you have an overbite? Is your neck circumference > 17 inches? There's a sleep apnea online questionare you can take to see if you are at...

    INTP Insomniac

    Have you tried warm milk? Just kidding. Doctors have actually suggested that to me though. :p Restoril is good but I was told it is highly addictive and few people prescribe it. It can't be that addictive, I still have some pills from my last batch. I never found it addictive and I bet if it was...

    **Hi, could you please type me again ?

    e.lee.sa let's give you a Rorschach test. jk. Oh just a guess but I will say INTJ...partly just to disagree with other people, haha :p Hey if you really want to, you know you can get tested in person right? It's about $200 or something I think? So e.lee.sa, did you suffer from abuse growing...

    Need dating advice...

    I don't think any time is too soon, I mean it's just a fun test. People like to know themselves better and these tests are popular, so maybe just find a short one that she can take or that the two of you can take together and share your scores. If you're friends already I don't think it would be...

    Are more intelligent people more inclined towards depression/other mental illness

    I'm pretty sure I read that as far as depression is concerened, intelligece is correlated with higher rates of depression. I will see if I can find the link to that though, I have it bookmarked because I was looking into that a while back. (Because you know, I'm so intelligent :p)

    Need some advice from other INTPs

    They're gonna force you to play sports? Dang. I say home school behind their backs. :p Oh the atheist thing was a half-joke. As far as home-schooling. Do it! Then in a year tell them how you are a senior now! Or in two years tell them you're in college! Anyway the whole joining clubs thing was...

    I want to study psychology am I making a mistake?

    But you say you are also ENTPish, so which is it? Both? That would be cool. I mean it doesn't sound like going to as many social gatherings as possible scares you or anything so, party on. Yeah I was thinking along those lines. Marketing and Industrial psychology. However when you click on...

    Need some advice from other INTPs

    What about home-schooling? I wish that had been around when I was in school. Well it was but not so well known. Now there are websites and billboards and tv commercials for it. You could learn at your own pace. This could actually require more motivation but maybe it's something you should...

    today i met a lady from wisconsin

    It's a little over my head how this could be misogynist. Or was that about Anime? Derp, I dunno. TLDR! :p Anyway, you tried to make this person feel more comfortable? So you sensed that this person was made uncomfortable by your comment? Aha. Well I'm sometimes too sensitive about things like...

    Are people bad, good, or neutral?

    Look at my avatar, what do you think I think about humanity? It's all going to hell! :p I think it's a false dichotomy maybe? We can be both devils or angels, under the right circumstances. Intuitively, it kinda makes sense that evolution would've made us this way, I mean why put all your eggs...

    The Lazy INTP: Fact or Fiction?

    FacT! Totally fact, I'm calling it, I called it. :p Yeah, when I'm INT-Peeing, I pile on the dishes like it's Jenga and wait till the homicide detectives come knocking at my door. I tell them the cat's been missing for a few days, and do they have a warrant? :p Cups of cheese-milk or chili are...

    Help! Need at new [transitional] job to save my sanity.

    Uber/Lyft? Are they in Canadia? Also, before you lose your mind, I have some other ideas in case you are interested, not for careers but with the office. Do you think that you are being too averse to confrontation? What if you were to ask the receptionist to get that customer? “Jane/Jack can...

    If you could choose your MBTI which would one would you choose?

    Yeah I would go with ENTJ or ENTP. I don't know if I have ever met one of those, but on paper they sound unstoppable. ENTJ = beast mode. And that income chart. Can I get some beast-mode please? For such a long time I even wracked my brains on trying to lower my "I" score, so I could go from I to...

    Existential Crisis

    ha. I dated a few of those before I found out about MBTI. Well they were disasters, but mostly due to my social phobia. I mean at some point you have to extrovert, and I probably could have, or I could have at least faked it, but social phobia is a beast and it would not let me. But when...

    Highly Sensitive Person Test

    I'm reading a book about "HSPs" called The Highly Sensitive Person, and just wanted to mention it. Are you in same predicament as I am and find the world to be just too much sometimes? The book talks about genetics and neuroscience, so it's not just a typical self-help book. There's also this...

    What are you all reading?

    Currently slogging through self-help books. Bleh. But I have to do it. I'm actually going to post about it...sometime. Teffnology was kind enough to share an ebook called The INTP which for my purposes is self-help too. The other two are Sane New World: Taming the Mind, and The Highly Sensitive...

    ISFJ wife? You poor bastard. :p I'm kidding, I'm sure she's a lovely person. Yes, twice actually...or three times. Whatever, but I have severe social phobia and other issues, so it didn't go well but I bet you would fair way better than me. Anyway, so what outlet, or inlet do you have...

    Hello

    Bienvenu mon petit ami. I had to Google most of that. Good job though, no? on my Googling? Right? So you have anxiety? Oh great, another basketcase, that's all we need here. I tease. Lots of people seem to have it so welcome to the asylum. I'm new here too. Your English seems very good by the way.

    Are you a non-conformist?

    Life pretty much hands you your hat if you don't conform (as an individual anyway) yet I constantly battle to conform. It's like I enjoy getting my butt kicked. Things get so convoluted, I don't even know what I am supposed to conform to anyway (gender roles for example), but otherwise you pay...

    Hi

    Hello everybody. Not really good at introductions, but I figured something was better than nothing. I have a pretty bad case of depression/ahnedonia/anxiety and fatigue and I'm actually sorta looking for the root cause of some of my problems, and I figured my personality type must have something...
