Evolutionarily speaking, at least, it's about making viable offspring, and that's it.

Oh, sure, tyrants are totally fair people, hence the term.

Porn is tits. Do I ever! Anal, Bondage, and also a bunch of weird shit that can't happen or if it did I'd not think it sexy at all, but I think my Thanatos has it's hands in my libido. I have a very specific preference. But if you want to know what mine is, you could always PM me!

I get along really well with pretty much anyone, but my best of good friends tend to be INTX. That's pretty much the limits of my input on that.

What makes someone who goes to a party to get laid suddenly somehow weak? In what way? You may dislike it, sure, but there's nothing innately wrong with it. You're effectively saying the way they spend their free time is less valid an option than you would do. How do you justify this?

A subjective, and therefore unfair as it doesn't apply to everyone equally, judgment. That rule is essentially a "We don't like you, so we're kicking you out" pass-card. It's a bad rule. Unfair rules are still unfair even though they're rules. I'm pretty sure Lemongrab never said that, though.

Raw intellect is more like the raw potential to learn/the speed at which a person can learn/the efficiency with which they think. Knowing how to know things I would consider like logic and reason, a skill which can be learned. I would place it at a loose connection if any. It's difficult to be...

Da Blob; Stupid stuff that makes the mods dislike me Mods; ONE THOUSAND YEEEAAARS DUNGEON (even though you didn't do anything that broke the actual rules)! Da Blob; :(

Why?

Nope, just some people disagree with the jury.

Low hanging fruit nothing, we're fucking giraffes!

Girls aren't hard to get, though. In fact, girls are generally very easy to get. How would being a clever(Ti), witty(Ti Ne), charming(Ne) INTP make girls difficult to get? All you have to do is drop the second guessing and start flirting. It's not a big mystery, or anything.

You do come off as self-conscious... though I'm not sure how that plays into type.

The poroblem here is that they're not necessarily less intelligent, they simply don't understand a thing that you do. Different people have different interests and, thus, know about different things. Just because they're not interested in or spent as much time with a subject as you have, it...

Bad analogy. You have no need to presume there are spirits, souls, gods, or any of that other stuff. You won't drown without those beliefs.

Dude, being able to eat food other animals can't get to is an advantage even if you don't take advantage of it all the time. However, their primary food source is, in fact, acacia leaves, and they prefer the higher leaves which other animals cannot reach, so you're just plain wrong about this...

Yo.

Exactly what do you do at a club to identify someone who's intellectually stimulating? Do they dance differently? Are they reading Plato while sipping a martini? Clubs aren't for intellectual discussion, dude. I mean, I've never met an intellectually stimulating person in the bathroom... I also...

Then your mom.

I mean; don't make threads only to increase the number of threads, as it will naturally water down worthwhile, interesting conversation.

Not addressed to me, but still; It's much more about manner than goal. If I were to imagine an ideal future, everyone would be an atheist, because I consider it the most rational position to take. It being rational is key. I want people to come to the rational conclusion, which I think is...

Why? Why not allow it to develop naturally? If it's worth making it because it's worth discussing, let it do it. It needs no unnatural push.

Agreed, hence it being more useful.

Well, the schools of philosophy are; 1) Epistemology; The study of thought. I'd say this could be the purest form of philosophy, in that it overlaps the least with other subjects. The only other subjects interested in the topic is psychology/neuroscience, which is a significant competitor...

There are actually several advantages to a giraffe's height. Eating the leaves and buds of tall trees is only one. I'd say even more important is their ability to scan the savannah's horizon for predators. Giraffes also eat bushes, fruits, and other stuff other herbivores eat. They're simply the...

Shit. I thought this thread was going to be serious, and I was gonna be all whimsical and tell everyone to stop goofing off and take it srsly, because people actually have it and die from it... but it's just this. Now I kinda wanna make a huge-long post for srs, but I'm already posting this. In...

Why?

Also, there's not really a lot to talk about in the subject of Philosophy which doesn't also, and possibly even harder, apply to another subject. Philosophy is more a tool you use to adjudicate other subjects. Like science minus the evidence.

The point of the story wasn't that the guy thought it was a cross. I understand how it would look like a cross. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it was a cross, simply not the kind he thought it was (or at least said he thought it was). What I thought was silly was that he intoned that it...

Please tell me there was some sort of mistake in typing made on your part, and you're not this stupid. Nobody's this stupid. You can't be this stupid.

Kind of a low blow, dude.

I haven't laughed uncontrollably since I was a kid on a sugar-high trying to go to bed at a friend's birthday party where everyone kept cracking jokes. The friend who's birthday it was told us to stop laughing, but that just made it more funny. Eventually, someone asked him to say something...

This strikes me as an odd question. Of course happiness is absolute in the sense that you're either happy or unhappy (or somewhere in between) and that feeling feels the same no matter where you are. The change of location and circumstances may change your mood, though.

Over a decade ago, working at Subway (the sandwich place), An old man and a younger, though fully adult, lady who I presumed to be his daughter came in. It was like any other couple of customers, until they paid. I don't recall the entire conversation, but the two were Christians. They inquired...

Past observations are, in fact, a form of evidence. Witnessing a thing work a certain way is evidence it will do so again.

That's why I'm against the death penalty except for especially obvious fault or pleading guilty to a heinous crime, but still after a full investigation (or else someone who's suicidal or overzealous could cause the true criminal to go entirely unpunished).

Okay, well, I'm different in that I don't buffet around the Cartesian brain in a jar possibilities like they're anything greater than an entertaining thought. Entertaining or not, they're completely useless when you're trying to figure out what's actually true. Until you have a reason to suspect...

You're ignoring the fact that atheists tend to regard Christianity (or any religion, really) as nothing more than silly myths. Thus, any truths the myths contain are truths you can find places besides those myths, and with more relevance to the real world. Basically, if a thing is true, it's...

A League of Heroes. Superman and Batman are in it. They run a train on Wonder Woman and then kick Aquaman in the nuts.

Boobies are totally interesting.

Equivocation. It's that easy. Creationists aren't interested in truth or facts, so they'll use whatever trick they can think of to make a convincing (if not accurate or honest) argument.

Snail mail? Why waste money on the postage, or the time walking to the post office?

No girls are hard to get. It's a game. Supply and demand. You want what you don't got. Be the jerk, ignore them, and see how many start the flirting. Girls are just like guys, just prettier.

Our dispassionate neutrality can actually be a cause of drama, believe it or not. People may assume you don't care simply because you don't constantly share your feelings. Also, I notice that some people like to talk. A lot. If you cannot remain focused on the things they say, even though...

Just because disposable things are cheap (why would you pay as much as one that you got to keep after it was used?), it doesn't mean the less expensive option is always disposable. Just consider cars. No matter how much you pay for your car, you're keeping it until it's either in disrepair or...

Garfunkle and Oates.

Of course. Nobody ever stops thinking. Yes, just like everyone. Super. As deep as they want? As far as they want. Depends how much I know about the subject. However quickly it takes. Again, it depends on how much I know about the situation. I'm often credited with thinking outside the box, though.

Agreed!

I might try this soon.
