Eye contact is contextually sensitive. If you make eye contact, you're either challenging, or you're empathizing. There doesn't seem to be a time when looking in eyes doesn't mean you're interacting with people, which means if you're looking someone in the eyes, you're supposed to say something...

I can see the rest of what you're saying, but I don't buy this. The military isn't 24 hour ready to follow the red-tape BS. There is red-tape BS, but generally you just have to be at the right place at the right time, at least for the lower enlisted. Further, it's actually easier than any other...

And on topic; I remember my mother coming to pick us up from the baby-sitter's, and I would simply walk out to the car. I wanted to get home and not waste time talking about meaningless things, while my mother would talk to the bay-sitter and ask my brother how his day had been. My going out the...

Okay. Different people aren't exclusive to certain activities. Exactly what is it I do which suggests I'm an S instead of an N? I'm curious, and would sincerely like to know if I am.

Even the making out thing? I mean, okay. I was told those were strange at the time. Maybe not. Also, I'm okay with not being an INTP if, in fact, I'm not. I am what I am. I'm okay with that. However, this sticks out; "They typically have strong powers of reasoning, although they're not...

One thing that comes to mind as an aspecial case, is when I asked for help with a computer program. It was before the second half of second grade, because I had not yet moved. It was in the late eighties, because I'm old. I asked my teacher for help in how to do a particular thing, though I...

I either feel like having a productive discussion, or making a (bad) joke.

Yes. This guy is super jolly.

I'm pretty sure my sociability is primarily conducted via Ne. My Fe is a liability, and thus I keep it to myself so that I can spank it for being so rash. Also, I use it for sex. Fe is great for sex.

Happiness is (poetic BS). I like it when things I like happen.

Anal.

Starship Troopers.

This is a problem for people? I mean, common enough to mention?

Nobody has said anything about me judging them, but people do presume I'm in a bad mood when I'm simply thinking about stuff. It's not uncommon for someone to ask me what's wrong when nothing at all is. Or, at least, nothing that hasn't been wrong for the past bunch of months, since being in...

No, classics just aren't that entertaining. It's not you, it's them. Though, I've been having trouble getting into books in general, lately. I prefer just making my own stories or watching Adventure Time.

... I'm officially old. I mean, it was from before my time, but I still new about it!

The fourth of July. You could put it on the calendar for the same reason Canadian Boxing day is on calendars you find in the states. Because it's big for a lot of people who look at the calendar.

Re: What turns you on? (NTs) Good on you, you feel superior to random jerk on the internet. You're an awesomez!

Mostly it's unrestrained emotions for me... being mad because you're mad... that's what gets me.

Haha, you look down on people because they're different from you. It's funny.

Usually it's from, like... actually being at work and having deadlines I need to meet and stupid paperwork and such.

... Physically draining?

He sounds like an asshole. Maybe he's incapable of love, but I sure feel it whenever I get to be with my wife, son, and daughter. He's essentially calling not only me, but just about everyone on the planet a liar. From what I read, and from personal experience, INTPs do not tend to consider...

Fireworks. Also, a great number of people do celebrate it.

Gonna be lazy, skype with family, and cook something.

I notice things when I'm drunk that I don't notice when I'm sober, but I don't pretend my mind is somehow more open, even when I mix it with uppers like red bulls. An alteration in perception =/= a widening or deepening of perception... you just think differently and, thus, notice or think about...

I have a trick which others have called "Faking the Funk". I'm not the exclusive holder of this ability, as pretending to have spirit in general is called the same thing. I pretend to be in a good mood, through saying "Wooo!" with my arms in the air, and I project a friendly, goofy smile, or...

Maturely.

Pffft, like most soldiers don't avoid MREs at every turn! I bet he got fat because he avoided them, not because he ate them.

I'm curious what religion has to do with not smoking weed.

1. Get over yourself. 2. You exist. Deal with it.

Eat more food.

What you're talking about isn't so much thinking in dichotomies as it is making comparisons. Since we place our knowledge in a hierarchical web, we make our points by comparing things that are similar except in the ways we want to point out differences. It's not a dichotomy, merely analogy.

Gross. Have sex with girls your own age.

I'm at the most I've ever weighed, which is 165. No, I'm not fat.

You're a virgin, eh?

No, the current propaganda against it, that we get taught in elementary school, with no effective anti-propaganda against it. Further, those effects exactly are what pharma has to gain from what they've already gotten from the plant. It's not like everyone's going to start smoking pot just...

Yet it wasn't illegalized, nor does it seem it would have been if the pharmacy companies could make it so. I'm not claiming big pharma is perfect, that it releases the best of everything right away, I'm only claiming that pharma is not trying to keep marijuana illegal. Specifically; It could...

A case study of how one particular sort of drug which wasn't very profitable ushered in a new era of similar, patentable drugs which were profitable and effective?

It wasn't so much the information as the reasoning. There was almost zero new information.

Well I didn't catch all that, then, and I don't see it there now. If you have a reason not to share, cool, but I'm actually having what might be called a "ball" in the Army. Granted, it really sucks, and my happiness is almost assuredly just my resilience and ability to be happy in the face of...

Which is... ?

... You should probably read the article.

Maybe you're trying to manipulate me!

Manipulation is when you get people to do things without them realizing you're trying to get them to do it, and is generally selfish, whereas help is blunt and unselfish. Interestingly, the two women who posted claim they see no difference between the two, or have a difficult time...

Nightmarish? I'm in, dude. It's not nightmarish. I mean, I'm not going to claim it's super-happy-fun-time, but it's also certainly not "nightmarish" (combat zones having a special sort of caveated exception). What's your MOS that your job is so horrible?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/paul-armentano/why-im-not-convinced-big_b_111523.html I don't have a degree in it, but I'm generally pretty good at sorting through bullshit. Your claims seem like it to me. The link I provided basically wrote my post for me, and better. I admit I may still be...

No. You're actually a bird.

Then I'm sure you can explain to me exactly why marijuana couldn't be sold, for profit, by pharmacies.
