    MBTI Comic

    The MBTI AI are probably the only ones I thought were a waste of my time.

    I opened the thread. Read the OP and a few other posts. I scrolled through the rest. I still see no Venn diagrams!

    If you click on this thread, leave a post!

    That a cool idea you have. I'm in! Obviously.

    Busting the Myth that INTPs are Not Emotional

    Yeah, we can agree on this. But this is... hmm. INFJs' outbursts are not something to be feared. They are a normal part of their life. INTPs on the other hand avoid theirs and are thus less proficient in dealing with them. We can't express emotions in nuanced ways. It's all in extremes. Our...

    Another career change...

    You could've been more specific. Nobody can help you if you don't say what those careers and university programs were, and what you're good at or find interesting.

    Busting the Myth that INTPs are Not Emotional

    Nope, functions aren't skills. http://www.personalitynation.com/jungian-cognitive-functions/1708-jcf-defined-c-g-jung.html Oh, here's another one: http://www.personalitynation.com/jungian-cognitive-functions/6938-other-four-functions.html It is because of our preferences (and avoidances?)...

    Should I tell my ten year-old cousin that she's an INTP?

    You know, a problem wouldn't exist if there were no stupid texts on the internet that try to tell you exactly the way you should be if you are a certain type. Forgot the name of the person on that other thread who worries they won't "meet the standards" of being INTP. That's the problem. (I'm...

    I think dala's right.

    Should I tell my ten year-old cousin that she's an INTP?

    Oh my god, being an INTP is not a medical condition. Both of you make it sound that way. But yeah, you could tell, why not. Edit: Ok, I obviously didn't see the later two messages. :D

    INFJ and INTP

    So... then... why do you think you're an INTP (assuming you do)? Maybe you're an ENTP. I know you're an old member here, probably not questioning your type anymore but maybe you should. Just sayin'. Don't get mad at me. (A true INTP wouldn't :P)

    Busting the Myth that INTPs are Not Emotional

    The last time I couldn't suppress my anger I was able to channel it into breaking very hard-to-break sticks and then chewing on them. And the last time I really expressed my happiness, those around me thought I was on some serious drugs. But I didn't have a crying + screaming kind of outburst in...

    Busting the Myth that INTPs are Not Emotional

    I'd say it's as simple as having less o' those but stronger and less controllable. Now, it might very well be as Jason Evans says: that we have less of these emotional reactions because we've learned to avoid them exactly because we are not good at dealing with 'em. Yeah, what's my point? I...

    I found out I am an INTP recently.

    Expectations? Lol. So if you fail to meet the expectations then what? Of course there other people like you; you didn't really need MBTI to tell you that. BTW, online MBTI test are not very reliable. Better go read about cognitive functions to figure out your actual type. I'm not saying you...

    How long would it take humans to independently develop language?

    That applies only to lexicon and absolutely no other part of language. Proto-Indo-European was way more complex than English is.

    Pronounciation - The right and the wrong.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPA ? I've also thought about how cool it might be if languages started using IPA instead of their traditional orthography. Of course, it would have to ignore allophones and thus be phonemic instead of phonetic. But why not?

    Pronounciation - The right and the wrong.

    I for one, don't know of a single orthography worse than English. And I know many. My mother tongue is Serbian, and Serbian Cyrillic is just about as perfect as a writing system gets, with Serbo-Croatian Latin being very close behind. Other South Slavic (Bulgarian, Macedonian, Slovene), Italian...

    A Darwinian reason for homosexuality

    I suppose you would say a culture in which weaker, women, those of lower caste... are oppressed is not in the moral right. You might even say the same for a lifestyle that, say, has a destructive effect on the environment. Homosexuality, in GeneralPatton's opinion has a destructive effect on our...

    Game of Thrones

    I cannot imagine a war in which they wouldn't be the good side. Therefore, they are good as a group. Yeah, of course a lot of them are bad people. But the percentage of people who care about the greater good more then about themselves is greater among the leaders and important people of the...

    Kinsey Scale Test

    F I am not at all unusual. The test is retarded for saying I am. I'm heterosexual, 0 or 1. As Question Authority said. Not repulsed, not attracted to guys.

    I still can't believe that nobody confirmed my opinion that the Nights Watch are good; the best. Yup. And these guys are the only ones that don't.

    Forgetting your age

    In Serbian you ask "How much years do you have?" when you want to know someone's age. So I just joke "Enough" which gives me time to recall my age. :D I don't think I ever say the wrong age though. Either I remember my actual age immediately or I need to think, but I always say my right age.

    Game of Thrones

    Bad Targaryens? Are you serious? They're like the legitimate rulers of Westeros. One mad king is not enough to undo that. Also, Starks aren't plain good. Of the three you mentioned only Lannisters are simply bad. But there you have the very likeable Tyrion, and if I remember right from the books...

    Roots of INTP "lazyness"

    I'm not saying we can function as reliably as others. I'm saying that the reason for the long periods of not doing anything useful aren't due to a lack of energy. You can agree or disagree with me on this, I really don't have any empirical evidence for this or anything.

    Roots of INTP "lazyness"

    I disagree. We don't take ages to recharge. I don't think we're at all different in that manner from other people.

    Roots of INTP "lazyness"

    I think none of you got it right. What's stopping us from doing stuff is thinking about it. Think about a time when you had to do something brave. You were able to do it only when/if you stopped thinking about it. Think about a time you had to get up in order to get the remote or whatever. If...

    - Most of the time other people think you spend doing homework or learning, you actually spend daydreaming. - Sometimes your night daydreams (I know, lol) are so exciting that you can't fall to sleep. - More like drag the same daydream on for months, - and then feeling great when you remember...

    Shitty thread title

    Wow, sometimes I really wish I did things like Thedrcome and Anima do, but when start something like that, I just get bored very quickly. I envy you. I also feel an urge, but by the time I get to a writing medium, the inspiration is long gone. It's sad really. :slashnew:

    Why do people suck at Typing others?

    Well, if you want to be really efficient, you can write just TiN. I figured that out earlier, but was lazy to write it. But now that you made a mistake, I just had to correct you. :D

    4th dichotomy is wrong

    The real question here is this: Caution! I am repeating myself a lot because I want to be sure you understand what I mean. Are IxxJ types more organized, decide quicker etc. than IxxP types? If so, then the MBTI is good. If it's the other way around, then it's bad. If this is not true, then it...

    Don't know if these apply to all INTPs, or just me. Also, I didn't read the whole thread, only the first Xteen pages and the last one. - Many times you've been asked why you are in such a bad mood, when you actually aren't. - People can't imagine you cry unless they've actually seen you do...
