Well, I still haven't read the whole story; but it is pretty amusing. Personally, reading someone's mind is the ultimate invasion of privacy and I don't even want to know what goes on in some people's heads. Besides, I'm so intuitive I know what everyone's thinking anyway. I can already master...

I saw Coherence some time ago. I quite enjoyed it to. Done very simply, but quite effectively for what it was. Like you said, even though there is little reason why there should even be an "us and them", it takes you into their journey of paranoia quite well. The Boy I saw this last night...

I have a work buddy like that. I'm pretty sure INFP, but we can debate weird crap for hours but were told by our boss to stop it after we spent an hour arguing over the temporal paradoxes across the various Terminator films. He catches my obscure sci-fi reference (which I don't think anyone here...

That's closer to what I'd expect. I'd have thought lower neuroticism, but I'm thinking more of real world persona where I show as little emotion as possible. Truthfully, I probably feel a lot more than I let on but I'm more open about it on this forum - but I suppose that showing it is more...

So you're saying I'm an angry neurotic emotional mess, I just hide it well? I thought my Neuroticism was way too high, and Conscientiousness too low. Given that he description of you is fairly accurate to the person I know, I have to assume that my description is more or less accurate.

My results indicate that I'm an unstable neurotic mess. It's mostly true. Except being quick to anger - I'm not sure where that comes from. My biggest criticism is the several questions about how I see the Highland Spring brand. Where was the button for, "It's just water - I don't care."...

I've lived in the same house for about 8 years - and I still don't even know the name of my next door neighbour. I used to do things like that. I remember I once compared someone to a black hole in an attempt to be comforting. There's an entire galaxy that collapsed into a black hole about 9...

I'll retract Donald Trump's IQ as I did my own worst bugbear - I read it on a few news stories back during the election and didn't research it all that deeply. It turns out the assumption was because he graduated from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania in 1968, with a Bachelor...

I think one of the problems with that, though, is that people's IQ scores are so often exaggerated, or at least the expectations of them, that we forget what clever actually is. Someone will say, "mine's only 120, so I'm really that smart." And forget that that's actually in the top 10% of rated...

Do you think the machine will work better with more Cogs in it? We get by with multiple Cheeses so we should manage. (If another me come along, though, I'll be running them out of town.)

I think it's valid in measuring the aspects of intelligence it measures. But intelligence as a general concept is far more complicated. I have a fairly high IQ, but then my success is fairly poor compared to many others of similar or even lower IQ. Mainly because I lack in social intelligence...

I both chuckled, and didn't chuckle. Yeah, most of us are 5's I think, but there's some 4's and 9's around. I'm a 5w4. Even so, though, neither MBTI's nor Enneagram's can tell you everything. I do find both can be useful basic guides and tools for us INTP's to use when dealing with humans.

If you are already talking - talk to her about something not class related. Then if the conversation is successful, ask of she would like to continue the conversation and grab a coffee in the cafeteria or something.

Actually, that explains a lot. He only attended the service, and not a reception afterwards. So my theory about it being to represent the company in the interest of supporting the guy is probably correct. I guess being INFP he would appreciate his feelings being acknowledged in this way. I...

That would seem to be one explanation. But I don't believe it is so. I observe behaviour a lot and notice no particular relationship beyond that which is normally professional. Or beyond that which said manager maintains with most of us. Plus, I'm the only one in the office who has this guy's...

Something weird happened today. Well, I thought it was weird anyway. Guy I work with. Sits opposite me, we chat and debate a lot about weird shit. I've come to the belief he's INFP due to the stances he takes in debates - particularly emotions. He thinks emotional suppression is a terrible...

I was first taught about this in a training session in work. It wasn't for the purpose of job assessment, but was taught as a tool to be used in customer services. Althoug it has since been criticised by other workers under the grounds that they can't possibly analyse a customer immediately, it...

I was under the assumption it would be like: Other types flirting - "You look great in anything; even better in nothing." INTP's flirting - "Well I agreed with your interpretation of the resuklts as a paradox of entailment, at least."

I wasn't referring to the specific importance of organics, more wondering if rather the complexity of the system is what gives us such an emergent property. In that way, it could be applied to AI in the sense that once a system becomes complex enough it could be called conscious. But only if...

You have indeed found the correct forum. I see consciousness as an emergent property. Analyse a human brain and you'll find a complex set of neurons, nodes, nerves etc. You can analyse it as a machine and find out what each part does. But that doesn't explain awareness. The fact that we see the...

Being either a nerd or a nerdess is not something you confess - it is something you should announce proudly instead. Welcome to the forum.

As I remember - The other Captain who had originally landed there and was supporting the eastern descendants believed the immortality was a result of a special property of the planet that meant none of them ever got ill, and that without any illnesses we would live for centuries like they do...

The future cannot be changed... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170607/1b68c5a1d70a111055c9cf5e72176480.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170607/df0b67302a6575605e66785ca60b8f22.jpg Haha - welcome back!

I can't be fake! I saw a You Tube video about it! It showed someone who might have been The Gopher using a computer. It proves he was orchestrating the entire thing!

Isn't that the one where the aliens steal Spock's brain to power there society or rule it? Then McCoy kind of has an exaggerated nervous breakdown over the amount of nerves he has to wire back in. Yes, I'm a true geek. During much of my teenage years I used Star Trek (along with certain other...

Now, in that particular episode the planet had a parallel development with Earth and therefore the US constitution was written independently on their world, too. Up until the late 20th century, when the cold war that was ended peacefully on our Earth erupted into Nuclear war on there's. And, for...

Person B is neither a liar nor are they telling the truth. They are misinformed. Person A may be knowingly lying, but person B should accept responsibility for not verifying the information before passing it on as truth. If the question was posed on a Facebook group, the answer is particularly...

Why would they take it seriously? If they could already read, wouldn't they already have a system of values or a belief system in place? Would they take it seriously or just think it was the worst written fantasy they'd ever seen? If you dropped the Harry Potter series would you find a...

Have we gone back far enough to prevent the demon Covfefe from being summoned? There are so many time travel references that it's difficult to pick which. Should we go to the Nietzschien thread and lie in wait for the armada of Nietzschien ships to arrive and prevent their tyranny? They have a...

I normally like to believe in the future of humanity. We'll grow up as a race one day and won't destroy ourselves. Then I scrolled Facebook and lost my faith in humanity altogether. People sharing pictures of bacon in solidarity. People complaining that someone posting a picture of something...

Cannot help but wonder if this is directed at anyone in particular. Anyway​, the answer of who to eat is simple. Every time someone random shows up on the island and says they aren't sure whether they're​ an INTJ or an INTP, we eat them. We'll never run out of food.

I never say no to an orgy unless it's a canabolistic one. Wrong kind of eating for that situation. But now Gopher has opened a can of worms, and I would like to know who here has dreamt of a forum wide orgy. And can you describe it in detail, please?

I think we'll be fine. We'll look around the island a little more. First of all, I'm sure we'll come across some fruit. Then maybe once we find some ice cream and cake, we'll realise we're on a desserted island.

Well, I do own a guitar (it's covered in dust as I haven't played it in years and could barely manage a simple song when I did. I think a Red Hot Chile Pepper ain't was my limit) and have owned a motorcycle. Not sure about redneck, though.

:confused:

Indeed. When you were a child. I was on my phone and the autocorrect is strong in this one. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

What were your hopes and dreams when you were a cold? How have these been transposed onto your adult send and have you achieved any of them? How did you go about achieving then and did you make any sacrifices to yourself or anyone else around you in order to achieve your goal of actualisation...

Last night I scrolled through Netflix's offerings and decided upon what was labelled a Netflix original (I say that, because a lot of stuff that sold as Netflix originals in the UK are by other networks in the US, and Netflix have the sole UK rights) called Before I Wake. I wasn't sure what it...

Alligators are difficult to find in this country. I also heard they won't consume human meat (something about predators not being as tasty and herbivores), but you can cover them in enough beef or pork to get them to tuck. That may be completely bogus, though. A good pyre like they did in old...

The ideas I've had are: 1) Simplest method is to bag it up, take it up onto the nearby mountains as far away from civilisation as I can in the middle of the night. Dig as a deep a grave as I can (hopefully at least 6 feet) tossing it in and filling in the hole. Top top layers would be grass, so...

Talk about feeling useless. I had another day off today - so I thought I'd catch up on some odd jobs. Tried replacing my bath taps with a proper shower mixer as the attachment I've been using doesn't work very well. It looked simple. Not complicated, but was probably the most traumatically...

In a completely hypothetical situation where you were required to do this, what would you do? I'm sure everyone has thought about it, but I'd guess that no method I have thought up, however intricate, would result in anything less than a very lengthy prison sentence.

I was just thinking about this, and something that once happened in college. I didn't think about it too deeply at the time, but it shows that the method of teaching is often at fault. I joined the English Lit class just after Christmas (I was walking past, they needed someone to read one of the...

I don't know how helpful this will be - but it's been said I can learn extremely quickly. But not the way other people do. I can read through a massive piece of information and not remember many of the specifics - but my brain summarises all the concepts when I'm finished. I don't really need to...

While the orbit is elliptical, the average distance to the sun is approximately 93 million miles. So if radius x 2 x Pi = circumference, then one rotation is approximately 584.335 million miles. Multiply that by 33, and apparently I have, as of today, travelled around 19.283 billion miles. (Not...

I'm not sure what difference it'll make - but yes, if I read an article online I always scan the comments section to see what other people thought. Not that their thoughts will sway mine, but it's interesting to see how our opinions of the same thing differ. Sometimes I'll even get involved in...

I think most of the sensitivities mentioned here can come down to that principle. Humans are essentially pack animals - and the image of the lone wolf, however inspiring and romantic, isn't real. We are strongest in the pack and in the wild would stand little chance of survival alone. Most...

Not really. I realise that might be construed as a typically INTJ thing to say, but I think it's one of the few of their traits I have. Other than that, I'm pretty sure I'm either INTP or a repressed ENTP. INTP seems far more likely to me. Anyway, I don't think anybody fits entirely into one box...

I thought it was done through wire frames, with textures mapped over them and a subdivision surface procedure done to smooth it off, which judging by Sushi's theory of using match sticks is similar to his/her conclusion.
