For similar reasons that engineers belittle scientists. It reminds me of sibling rivalry.

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Not a problem Alice. Not a problem.

Hello. (breaks the chain)

lolz This answers so many questions.

I have. I tried to do it respectfully, but when it became obvious that nothing would come of it I looked out the window for the rest of the class. I did some of my best thinking not paying attention...

Priviledge is not a word that comes to mind when I think of integrity in the modern context. :( That said, I don't think that you have to sacrifice integrity to be successful. Hard work, dedication, and good decisions are more important for success.

I think emotional sensitivity also plays a role. Even though I did not know anyone from New York, I still had a strong emotional reaction to the events of 9/11. I've also had reactions to hearing about the deaths of two classmates from grade school (one from suicide, the other from a...

I don't take the death of someone close to me well. I withdraw from those around me, and tend to go off on my own to think and reflect. Death forces you to think about a lot of questions (Is there an afterlife, why did this person have to die, and others). I am not satisfied with many of...

To my knowledge he continues to do the artwork for the series. Most of the artwork that you see now is by another artist (who isn't half bad), but I still like Amano better.

The word 'whatever'.

I understand what Ashenstar is saying. The city itself does not have a life force. But the sounds of a city (sirens wailing, trucks going around picking up trash, people walking on the streets, etc) all show that there is life within the city (people going about living and doing their...

What are your favorite puzzles? How do you approach puzzles, and to what lengths will you go to solve them?

How would you describe: 1. Your control of emotions? 2. How you express your emotions? 3. If/how emotions affect your judgement (and in what specific situations)? 4. Do you use any devices to describe emotions (ex. visual representations, auditory, tactile, etc.)? 5. What...

Is there such a thing as unconditional love? If you have experienced it, what kind of relationship was it in (familial, romantic, etc.) Do you think that it is important to have unconditional love for others?

I think his art on the FF series is very whimsical. I used to always love when the new series would come out because it meant that he would be drawing more characters :D

Music is the emotional and logical pulse of human creativity and expression.

One year older and one year closer towards complete independence.

Good to be back :)

I rarely watch TV, and I don't turn it on for noise: if anything, I find that there is usually too much background noise to concentrate and to think.

I would have liked to have been born in 297X and live during 3000 AD. I've always wanted to live in space and to visit places like the moon and Mars.

My profile picture was done by Yoshitaka Amano (if I'm not mistaken). He did all of the art for the earlier games in the Final Fantasy series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshitaka_Amano

I will be away for 3 weeks. IRL demands require more time. See everyone soon.

Hello sunshine. It's good to have you, and I look forward to things being more lively with an ENTP around :D

Proteus 33% Extroversion, 33% Intuition, 72% Emotiveness, 5% Perceptiveness Changing your shape to suit your situation, you are most like Proteus. More than anything else, you need to be wanted. You have a very strong work ethic, and are very adaptable, but are often unappreciated. You...

A newcomer has appeared! :elephant:

I think that people are afraid of having to keep the child around (and the time and investment that it takes to sustain the child). I also think that people are unaware of the resources that are available for couples that wish to give their child up. It's a difficult choice that each...

There is also a thing called tipshare in which everyone receives a cut of the server's tips. That model provides for some of what you are talking about, but you could always make the case that some are not working as hard as others. Now that the gratuity situation has been changed things are...

I would also like to join.

ENFJ? Not me at all.

Haha, welcome. Things around here are usually pretty interesting :D

I like that champs change too, but I would rather it happen because their score was beaten than because of an auto prune. I would recommend saving the top 3 or top 5 scores, and to not have auto prune (or to autoprune every 6 to 12 months). I don't know if this would come down to a...

Is there a reason that the arcade scores seem to reset themselves after a certain amount of days/weeks? Is there a way to make them stay what they are in terms of top 3 highscores and actual highscores?

Eh, it's just a lifestyle choice. As long as you make connections and network with other people you don't really have to party. Not everyone likes to go out and drink, and I would wager that there are people that go out and do not drink or who drink to be more social. Even if you drink, you...

Yeah, I grew up with all the good music from the 90's, lol. I love most of the stuff on Vapor Transmission, but I wish that the band came out with more songs. How about you? What do you like to listen to?

Hello slant. Good to have you :)

Hey, no worries. I really like the .hack//SIGN series, and don't worry about the usertitle. I think yours is better, lol :D

It's pretty simple: list what kind of music you like and the tracks of songs that you enjoy. Also try to describe the music: is it beautiful, has a fast/slow tempo, makes you think about X, makes you feel Y, etc. Get creative and let's see what we can all come up with!

I have this kind of thing happening, but I know that I cannot be released from my obligations and responsibilities. Until the roller coaster is over, there's no getting out or letting up. I know that things will be very good once it is over, and I have accepted that my life will be busy and...

Do you get uncomfortable if someone gives you a compliment? If so, could you try to explain why (is it the attention, the recognition of a trait, etc.)? Is there a way to give an INTP a complement without making them uncomfortable?

How adept are you in knowing what someone else is feeling? Do you let it affect you, and how does it manifest (if applicable)?

Hiya. :elephant:

*clashes a pair of cymbals together and runs off* :D

Multitask mostly. While I can focus on one thing with great intensity, I have learned that I get more done with multitasking.

Welcome. I hope you like it here.

Pretty neat. Any thoughts? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,560760,00.html?test=latestnews

New robot that sings along. I thought it was a real person for a second when I glanced at the photo... http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2669909/Robo-pop.html

Each person has contributed their thoughts on why they think stories are told to explain things. If there is fault to find in this thread, it would be that I started it in the psychology section instead of the lounge since I wanted it to be more relaxed. If you have scientific proof or...

Well, yes and no. The story of Adam and Eve could fit into the category of why something happens the way that it does, but I was thinking more along the lines of general psychology of storytelling, people, and their culture. I guess I was wondering why having a story about something makes it...

Welcome, and glad to have you here. Hope to see you posting around the boards.
