I love the humor in it. It's definitely my style; kind of anti-climatic I can't really describe it so here's a quote: Zaphod: "Did you think of that, Earthman?" Arthur: "Well, all I did was..." Zaphod: "That's very good thinking, you know. Turn on the Improbability Drive for a second withou...

Economics You scored 25 mental chops, 9 work ethic, 25 bullshitability, and 13 practicality! You're smart, creative, and lazy...but you also wouldn't mind leaving college with some job prospects. Economics is a perfect fit for you. Take care not to start looking at everything from a...

Just a chicken wrap with lettuce tomato cheese and italian dressing. Nice, easy, good. Im gonna have to try a meatball sub with some acid sometime.

Become a symbol.

I am a senior in college and I picked mechanical engineering before I left high school. I am just now starting to see how versatile such a degree can be. Really the degree represents what level of abstract knowledge you can handle. From what people tell me, the stuff they learn in school is...

Love your sig. So very true.

Not so sure about this one. Towards the end of my smoking days I became so extremely paranoid that I treated the people around me like pieces of crap. However, I cannot tell if this was because they were treating me like crap all along and this was me finally retaliating or if it was that...

Back in February my debit card had expired. It would be another few days before I could go get my new one from my parents' place. I was running low on food and money to buy some with. I was walking back home from my evening class and the roads were bad (snow slush etc). I get to my street and...

Just started Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. So absurd, so awesome.

Yep this is exactly what I was talking about. I constantly shift between the what-ifs and also dealing with whats in front of me. From all of this thinking about life and its meaning (which I can't find), I have decided that life itself really is meaningless. What's important is your...

Can't we just band together and come up with some outlandish plan the INTJs would never think of? Chewing gum and a shoe lace? No problem, MacGyver did it so we can too. Besides there cant be more than 10 guards and there's at least 32 of us.

Real: Hannibal of Carthage - for me Hannibal is the ultimate symbol of what it means to be underestimated. The ultimate underdog. He nearly destroyed Rome with the power of surprise and the brilliance of his mind. I bet he was an INTP. I hope I get to meet him in the next life. A student of...

More often than not I find that people aren't aware of these social nuances. I don't think this is such a bad thing though. Your friends appear to not be aware that they are revealing the value that they assign to you. So they are going to let their TRUE feeling/thoughts about you come out...

Puffy that is one way you could do things. It really depends on the current situation of your life. It very well could be that you, Smeagle, would find that a gradual change is more comfortable for you. But, if a drastic change presents itself, why not follow suit? I am also a college student...

Not thinking about it definitely helps. I challenge you to go one step further and stop caring. Ask yourself this: what is stopping you from doing.... anything really? The answer: YOU and YOU ALONE. We are able to think in many different ways so, why should this be any different? Could you...

Fuck it all - do what makes you happy. Take that plunge into those dark murky waters. You might not find what you expected but, you are being true to yourself. Let go of your preconceived notions they will only serve to disappoint you.

word. except a BMT. Also- steak/pork chop/ grilled chicken with roast potatoes and green beans

Yea I have color blindness too. For me its Redish Brownish Greenish colors that are kinda close together. I can tell the difference between traffic light red and green. I remember one time in first grade I had a box of crayons that didn't say what colors the crayon was. I started to cry...

I understand what you mean. (I am thankful that this wasn't the thread I thought it would be.) You are right though that what people wear says a LOT about them. Unless they have no social sense of course. I haven't found it possible to define what exactly each thing says about a person. For...

This wouldn't be able to start on its own. If it was an open chain it could but, your chain will cancel out ALL horizontal tension because it is linked to itself. You would only be left with the downward pull of gravity. Draw a free-body and see. However if you were to give it a push.... with...

We should probably just have a complaint box instead. Or let the answering machine get it.

Holy shit that avatar!

The "high" you get from drinking is so piss poor and dirty that the after effects aren't worth it at all. I'm talking binge drinking here of course. A beer or glass or wine with dinner is never bad. I've had too many run ins with the spins for this to be fun anymore. I usually think that I am...

So beautifully devious of you Cavallier! I do something like this. I make a sweeping obscene generalization about the other person's argument that would appear to tip the scales into my favor. This almost always baits the person back into picking the discussion back up.

I like this thread because it tells me that there are people out there that are willing to think outside of what is commonly accepted (aka I'm right because my army is bigger than yours). Once upon a time humans believed that the sun rotated around the earth. @pjoa09: Your few lines make me...

I agree. I've said before that we should invent some kind of telepathic technology that can transmit meaning. Each machine would have to be specific to the person. We would all overnight be come empaths. I imagine crime would be zero (sociopaths exluded). You don't have to look any farther than...

Too vague? Come on now... extract meaning out of it :rolleyes:. Obviously it's not something so serious like a battle to the death or something so trivial as rock paper scissors game. ---- @walfin: I think the way to look at is from a "survival of the fittest" point. If everybody always won...

IB has a point. When I joke around with people, its kind of used as a filter to decide which people are worth getting to know better. If people can keep the joke going or sling it back in my face then I am more likely to become friends with that person. (It takes intelligence to understand and...

It really depends on who I am with. If its with people who don't really know my strange style then its going to fall flat most of the time. If its with friends I usually can get a laugh. But maybe they are just being nice?:confused: I did have some girl say to her friend, "see? he can make...

I don't feel as though I really belong anywhere right now. I don't think you can begin to belong anywhere until you have a sense that things will remain static. Some sort of constant. Going off that I guess the only real feeling of belonging I got was from a pack of cigarettes. Very unhealthy...

Good list! I lold. Bolded ones are especially true for me.

That doesn't sound like a good idea to me. We already have those sick people out there that drop a roofie in a girl's drink. This is a door that I don't think needs to be opened. Unless of course artificial sperm production does exist. I've never heard of it.

I do this if I am trying to gain an understanding of where a person is in their view point. I poke holes in it and see if they have an explanation- if they have a solid one then I am likely to go along with what they say. If a person says something or does something I disagree with 9/10 times...

Usually, I tell the truth because it's much less taxing. I don't have to pay much attention to the people around me. It is what it is. I live in peaceful oblivion. If I have to tell a lie, I play the part. I get into character to make it believable. I only use lies to avoid trouble for myself...

I think you're right about ego. It's almost as if the ego is some sort of parasitic entity that co-inhabits the body with a person. Without it there would be nothing to say: oh I can't do that I would look stupid.

This is one of those things that I HATE about society. It's become all too common to place the blame elsewhere than on oneself. There is no accountability. It's everywhere; from obesity to loopholes in laws. You can't do anything when you can't admit you are part of the problem. They may not...

Sometimes I lie to get myself out of situations I don't want to be in: -No officer I don't know how fast I was going. -I have to wake up early in the morning (I don't want to talk/hang out with you right now) Usually the lie is a softer way for me to tell a person what I want- a way that I...

+1 for Borknagar :smoker:

I can definitely relate to the language prison. When I did shrooms there are thoughts of concepts Ive had that simply cannot be explained. This is definitely a heavy heavy thought. One way I see around this is we devise a machine or language that lets us communicate pure meaning and not using...

Front Line Assembly an electro industrial band pretty cool.

I think the important thing to realize is that it's not actually your toe or finger that's feeling the pain but your brain responding to a signal sent out from those points. Sometimes when I stub my toe I have a moment to prepare for the incoming flare of pain. I stop and tell myself its all...

I wonder about laser drilling and why it isn't used. They are able to cut some decent sized, clean holes with some low power lasers by inducing heat "shocks" to the rock. Seems like it would be cheaper and more efficient than the current rigs. Like blob I also think about renewable energy and...

I walked by a group of guys talking about polo shirts once. yea.... Douchebaggery of any kind makes me insta-dislike.

Constantly correct everyone's little mistakes- you know hair splitting stuff. That would definitely make me hate you.

I think if you really wanted to have a single order society one needs to begin by monopolizing energy which is at the heart of everythingpeople need or want. Water would be next best but, nearly impossible to control because after all it simply falls from the sky. After that I think it would be...

Auditory : 21% Visual : 78% Left : 84% Right : 15% 21+78 = 99 84+15 = 99 What about the other 1%??
