Well here is actually a pretty exciting version of her Anthem story http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQEgZNqa8jE

Ok then lets call it a eugenics of thought instead of fascism then.

Roughly similar yes. There are some themes of being ultimately rationally driven and that acting for the self is the most rational thing you can do. I guess the difference would be with Nietzsche there is almost a fascist drive to assure the weak fail for the greater good. Rand seems to have...

Let me preface this by saying I am pretty conservative and generally in agreement with her ideas. Sorry i just don't care about, or even believe in, other people. Her books are sort of in the philosophical vein of "Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance" in that they are a mix of...

Where was the action, i was hoping for an action movie. I was let down even on that meager requirement.

I am not a fan of horror movies but a couple i like were called "the keep" and "prince of darkness" they are probably not very good but i liked em.

As an Intp I am an idea man. I come up with all sorts of crazy crap, I'm sure we all do. When its something solitary that I can do all on my lonesome, all is good the world is right. Then I have to reach out for help or evangelize my ideas I feel sick to my stomach. Do any of you have that...

Am I the only one who hated Avatar? I seem to get looks like I am crazy when I talk about this. It just didn't do it for me. For an action movie it seemed very bland and static. That scene where they attack the tree seemed like they were just shooting at a tree. And it was a big tree, not...

Here are my blog posts on his latest series. While I am certainly a fan, I think this was a weaker work for him than "The Trap" or "Century of Self". He doesn't ever end you with a summarizing conclusion that he hits you over the head with, but this on it was more vague. He sort of seems to...

yeah was thinking more abstract than those but never mind

Im a tea totaller, but as a general thought of any one INTP's dont need another reason to not do shit. My view of drugs isnt a twitching addict but rather a 40 year old dude named Paul who lives with his parents and smokes pot all day. I already waste too much time on video games and day...

I liked it I am normally pretty hard on this sort of film but I liked it. Many of the block buster films these days feel like a bunch of scenes thrown together as a movie. GI Joe was an example. But for some reason this one didnt have too much of that feel and it kept my interest. I...

I freaking hate 99.9 percent of it. There is just too much cute stuff in it. Also it makes me think of Japanese people has freaks. Either as having some freaky fetish or as desiring to be in constant conflict with little reason for said conflict. Take pokemon for instance, if someone sent...

Emo maybe he makes me laugh at least. While Tosh certainly isnt intp, he sometimes surprises me with a very cerebral joke that just delights me

Scramble This is sort of a joke my cousins only had like 4 games. I didnt play it very much

Bionic Commando hands down

RedStar is a great retro style game. I had a nice collection of activision atari games. Though i have carts of most of them.

I often go crazy with gifts for my wife. She loved Megadeth/Dave Mustaine so a couple of years ago i got a set of his guitar strings off eBay and had a bracelet made with one of the strings embedded in the middle. She really liked that. I sort of wished my wife would pay attention enough to...

I try to go by Leibniz, it is injust to avoid a small action that might bring someone else a great good. That has me doing a lot of things I would not normally. But After having a experience, that I have talked about elsewhere, I have started to realize people dont often want what is best for...

Its very sad to me, to never grow up. I remember this one time I almost died. I was in the hospital and was way out of it. i would wake up for a couple of seconds then fall asleep for a minute or two. I just keep noticing the clock move and I was so angry and scared at what was going on. I...

Give Dungeons and dragons online a try They are changing the model to allow free play on the 9th. Its a very different style of MMO. ddo.com

Ok the two films I am going to mention are sort of the big leagues in terms of hard films to watch. One is slow as hell there other is just wrong Stalker - slow and philosophical Begotten - Ugh words fail

Family its more a driver of divergence in personality. Roles like focus, peace maker and whatever are needed to be filled. Society is more a driver of sameness, ie American society is good at making Americans.

Has anyone watched Lie to me. Dr. Lightman im not sure

Mystery in the Abbey is sort of Clue 2 electric boogalou. with lots of deduction Settlers of Catan is probably the best game in the world but it really popped for me with cities and knights, it became a great complex game with backdoors to victory that i liked. I like strategy games that...

This show is very strange but still a million times better than the american tim and eric awesome show good job. Seducer you should be thankful for what you have if it was american it would be 100 times worse.

Have i ever mentioned this video. The Trap by Adam Curtis. It was produced in england but you can find it cut up on youtube or en.fooooo.com it is pretty amazing. The theme i guess is freedom and how we are conditioned to hold it up as a value while constantly giving it away for something we...

Sal Paradise of on the road has a couple of very INTP moments, The scene where Dean talks with Carlo as Sal silently watches and the reader alone hears Sals thoughts is very INTP.

Please don't be upset by my craziness. I tend to view the world through reversed perspectives on objective and subjective. With music I calculate the music on mental scale factoring in lyrics, chord structure, time changes / synchopation, etc. So of course i treat my opinion as the final...

Man i forgot how good obscured by clouds is as well. and Ting Tings? Really that "Not my name" song is catchy? I have had enemas which i enjoyed more.

Its a very metalish record. Soaring vocals, dual guitars, a lot of orchestration. but youtube is free and you can probably hear a few songs, Jerusalem is one of the lighter songs. Obviously its just the poem with a melody. I am guessing probably not your cup of tea but maybe. Try nick drake

Beyond amazing. Possibly better than all the Maiden records. Its a concept album related to the works of Willam Blake. The music has a lot of variety, some are maidenesq (The Tower) others are almost thrash (killing floor). Has a lot of quiet interludes as well. Adrian Smith is on it as...

In no particular order Jail Break - Thin Lizzy August and Everything After - Counting Crows Piece of Mind - Iron Maiden Chemical Wedding - Bruce Dickinson <- probably my favorite of all time The Legacy - Testament Relayer - Yes Burden of Hope - Grails Shaking the Tree - Peter Gabriel (yeah...

San Jose

I sort of hate anime but Cowboy Bebop I will begrudgingly admit is good.

I write when i must. its like someone starts speaking through me at time, thats when i must. Its here, sort of tells the story of an INTP writer. Exponential decline of content through the years. http://crescentstar.blogspot.com I sort of write quick tit bits on a theme i think that...

basically we would be happy in the western world. Most of the eastern world is very rigid in class. INTP's dont care about that and will tell the emperor when he has no close on. China is out because of that. We would denounce the caste system in India. Be critical of the mis use of...

Just get fat or tall, big and tall stores are so much easier. No on talks to you. I just buy the same clothes, levi's doc martins tshirt x7. try to match your shirt to your company logo, that way they think you are just dedicated.

There is some proto metal / punk esq garage bands from that time, buy you really have to look. Blue Cheer is 67 or 68 first metal record

Read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle much of the books discussion of quality and the different sorts of people seems to be directed at this question. But on a personal note im sort of crazy and heated up a coat hanger with a lighter and did some crazy stuff to my arm. It was more about the...

Personally I would hate what you are doing. I find it very hard to listen to music that doesnt reflect my mood. I enjoy digging into particular records and listening to them for a week or so but usually I am going through some sort of mood. Radio drives me crazy most of the time because of...

While i find generally find R.A. Salvatore crap and Piers Anthony to be interesting if poorly written. It is the following POS that I want to steer people away from. Sparrowhawk by Thomas A. Easton was LAME CRAP LAME!!! The typist is some theoretical biologist.

reminded me of my kidney transplant

The Ghormenghast series by Mervyn Peak is good if you care about language more than action.

I have to disagree. Gatsby's determination to rig fate is freaking great. The whole thing with EJ Ecklbert/God coming to his party and being the only mourner to come thats some sweet symbolism. Also just take the poetry of the words.

Russian Night and Day Watch were good Stalker is way way better though. But its super slow be prepared. you may need to watch alone French Brotherhood of the wolf, City of Lost Children, Alphaville and delicatessan are all good But the best are Canadian Meatballs and Strange Brew...

Andy LaRoque (spelling?) adds a lot to the picture

There are moments in "On the Road" by jack Kerouac that i feel understood. Confederacy of Dunces is a another good INTP read

Guess im the odd man out. I believe a lot of people are deserving of violence. I guess see it as just based of their actions. That said I am torn on the issue of me being involved in violence. My family has a long history of angry/rage issues and I do take steroids as part of a medical...
