Haha, i found a funny thread where some intjs are commenting on an intpforum (i guess that's intpcentral).

Well, if they think so, not my problem...

Should someone go over there and point out our existence? I wonder...

I'm pretty sure I haven't seen those threads here, so I think you're right. If that thread hadn't stopped in February I would post about that discrepancy.

I think i should add that this was my first visit of that forum (and out of a googlesearch on 'intp forum'; wanted to see if there are more, not that this wouldn't meet my needs, just curious :p)

EDIT: Well, if this thread doesn't seem familiar (actually that first post, i think i read it somewhere else already...;))

Ha, a good friend of mine is INTJ. He finds it amazing how I can live without timetables and plans, and how "disorganised" my mind apparently is. He says he sees his as being like an office. Not metaphorically, literally like an office, with departments and places to file things away. I can't even imagine what that would be like.

I think INTPs and INTJs will always have obstacles to getting to know eachother. The P/J divide is just too noticeable. We (or I, at least) find their completely anal need to organise and plan everything to the smallest detail incredibly frustrating, and they find our ability to live without a timetable annoying. Reading the thread, you can see they're quite dismissive of us: "They argue to question, rather than to answer" and "they never stay on topic". How can there be answers without questions, and why should a line of reasoning that could lead somewhere fruitful be cut short just because it strays away from the topic at hand?

Scroll down a bit and ShaiGar is there...

Edit: Reading their forum. They really are insufferable... >.>

Why was Shar Gai banned there? We don't seem to have any problems with hir.

On topic:

INTPc is hardly representative of us.
Last week I signed up at INTJ forum, btw, to find out if I was really a P. It's not a very amusing place, even if I did find I share a few traits with its population.
