    Kinesthetic Knowledge

    I can juggle and I'm good at most sports. The only problem with me and sports was that I never wanted to play them and I never had any desire to win. There really isn't an aggressive or competitive bone in my body. Disc Golf and downhill longboarding were the only things I ever enjoyed. I...

    Famous Intps

    If so.. more vegetarian INTP's. :D Being vegetarian seems common amongst the world's most famous INTPs, even though it wasn't very popular. Another interesting thing to note would be their irregular sleep patterns.

    How INTP's convert others to vegetarianism: Socrates: Would this habit of eating animals not require that we slaughter animals that we knew as individuals, and in whose eyes we could gaze and see ourselves reflected, only a few hours before our meal? Glaucon: This habit would require that of...

    Famous Intps

    Seeing a list of people like that is kind of depressing. So much to live up to. :p I always related with Brian whenever I watched Family Guy. I doubt he's INFP since he seems to be devoid of feeling often. He's the most logical character on the show.

    Please help cure me of my addiction

    I try to get what I need out of a forum and figure out when to back off. Often I'll dive in head-first and do a LOT of reading and some posting. Once I have to wait long for new data to come in, I have learned to spend the majority of my free energy trying to find something else that is...

    Female INTPs

    As a trans woman INTP I have had quite a difficult time since I'm barely 'female'. I was putting on a 'masculine' act before I transitioned, and now I'm feeling so much pressure to put on a 'feminine' act. At this point, I'd say that being a female INTP is a more difficult experience if only...

    Suicide

    Yes. I don't think that it's cowardly to open up on forums. There simply aren't people around me that I can relate to. I've opened up more on this forum than any other; I usually don't have to explain or repeat myself and it's a lovely feeling. I've been desperately searching for a 'group' of...

    Dreams and the Subconscious

    The most prominent dream I had last night involved my dad not being my biological father, and when I was introduced to my real dad he was Korean.

    The strangest secret by Earl Nightingale

    I'm skeptical of websites with banners of individuals who smile like that. And audio that starts off with that type of music. And narrators who speak in such a manner and say the forthcoming message has "magical quality about it". Sorry. :o I'm interested in reading your diary entry though.

    Any Hardcore Gamers Here?

    I suppose that killing is acceptable for me, but when it's the main thing in a game, I dislike it. I still enjoyed Half-Life 2 but that was due to atmosphere, sound, and story. I like to use my brain, not my reflexes. Plus, I'm completely non-aggressive. I'd like to see more innovation and...

    Any Hardcore Gamers Here?

    I've always liked to play adventure games, games that had really good stories, or games with great atmosphere. I'm also intrigued by graphics and hardware, but usually don't care to actually play the game. Especially if killing is involved.

    Self Esteem

    I put "beautiful mind" but I also find it hard to discern between mind and soul. I'd say that I presently think I'm all of the options aside from "irresistibly" attractive. As far as what people perceive of me, the people I'm closest to seem to appreciate my mind/soul a lot. I'm seen as...

    Accepting Praise

    I've learned to just say 'thank you'. If it's the type of praise that I don't really agree with and it's for something that I'm insecure about, I'll usually try to just say thanks. But it's obvious that I don't really agree with them and I always try to move the conversation elsewhere...

    Social Gathering FAQ

    Social interaction is great when we can chameleon, but what happens when the ability diminishes? For me, one-on-one communication is really easy with just about anyone.

    INTP depression prone?

    The physical manifestation of feeling is something that I can relate to. Not so much with aggression, but it always helps me cry if I can swat at a pillow.

    INTP artists

    Yes. I think my interest is specifically in how to cultivate my every-day (every-post) use of language. It lacks flow and style. I'm too inhibited, stunted, aimless, and disorganized. The same can be said of lyrics I've written. :confused:

    INTP artists

    That's an excellent description. I don't know how to properly phrase my question, but I suppose I'm wondering how people here have developed such an art. Perhaps someone could start an appropriate thread? (I'm not eloquent enough to have such responsibility)

    INTP depression prone?

    I forget which, but on one INTP profile it mentioned that INTP's are likely to listen to music that fits their current mood. If I'm feeling depressed, I need depressing music. If I listen to upbeat music when I'm depressed, it'll make me feel alienated. Likewise, this is why I think INTP's are...

    I appreciate visual arts, but am unwilling to learn to create them. I have ideas popping into my head constantly but it would be way too much work to transfer the image from my mind to paper.

    Favourite Musical Instrument

    I've fallen asleep numerous times with classical guitar in hand. It has such a naturally soft sound that it tends to walk along with me into dream land. I'm all about aimless playing. That's all I really like to do. I play my best when fully trusting intuition and stilling my mind.

    Dreams and the Subconscious

    Voice

    I don't really feel as though I have a distinct voice. Which is why whenever I made youtube videos I sound a little weird. When speaking I do the chameleon thing. There are so many ways that my verbal communication will change depending on who I am speaking to. I tend to match the dynamics of...

    INTP depression prone?

    I've dealt with depression for most of my life, off and on. I never really cared to live until recently. One of my most prevalent thoughts has been the wish for non-existence, but not particularly suicide. I've been happy for the last 3 days though. I have read and watched a bunch of helpful...

    I agree that we read into it however we want to. That's just my perception of it. :shrug: Also, it might prove interesting to look at the ancient Greeks and Romans and what their intense homosociality correlated with.

    Men from mountain, Women from valley

    There's a lot of truth still tucked in. Like, the quotes you mention are the narrator questioning his sexuality.. Perhaps another re-watching is in order to look for homosexual subtext? Palahniuk is gay, btw.

    I just finished Noein today and have to say that it was incredible. I'd put it at #2 on my list. Jawdropping. I'd say it's pretty much tailored for INTP's. It deals with identity, time, quantum physics, multiple dimensions, causality, and has great character development/interaction. And does it...

    INTP body issues

    Fascinating post, cryptonia. As for whether or not INTP's can be that way, I'm beginning to wonder if we can choose people's happiness over truth if we deduce that aiding their happiness is the actual truth depending on the circumstance.:confused:

    INTP body issues

    Yeah, I definitely agree with grey matters. It's something my mom had always told me as well. When she was younger, she was kinda chubby and not as 'pretty'. But people were drawn to her. When you're a strong person who is sure of yourself it tends to warp other people's perception of you. Once...
