No label is ever going to be perfect. Its a description of a group of people with similar characteristics. I call myself an INTP because I fit the description, however I don't subscribe to it... as in I don't go read my horoscope in the morning and through out the day I go and try to make it...

I don't expect to spend that 6 trillion over night. It would have to be done over time at the limit of current capacity. If we look at current capacities of 3.6GW/yr it would take about 4,000 years to meet all of today's demands. Absolutely rediculous but, that would translate to $1.5 million/yr...

After I come to a profound new realization like flow said. Also when I watch ghost shows... even if they aren't true just the possibility gives me the chills. I bet its a response to adrenaline rush.

Senior level engineering classes. They don't seem bad at all. If you understand the concepts you can pass the class. Thank god I only have 1 year left... if I don't fail anything that is. I hardly ever talk to counselors which is the reason why im not graduating in May- that and I...

Yup every so often I relive certain memories that I tie with embarrassment or situations where I didn't act like my normal self. Why do they got to be the bad memories? Why can't I cyclically re-imagine the good times? Don't get me wrong here to live in the past and forget about the present is...

Most sources say that solar energy reaches us at a rate of 1000W/m^2 at optimum conditions. I will grant you the main problems with solar collectors are efficiency and manufacturing costs. Solar panels on a manufacturing scale have an efficiency of around 15-20%. The very best using expensive...

I will take the leadership position if it's obvious that nobody else can (wants) to do it OR if I think I am best suited to lead. I think our vision of the big picture is our "right" to leadership. When doing "leadership" tasks I tend to switch to J mode- slightly. I come up with schedules and...

More or less

I couldn't agree more. Just think of all the social impacts too. There would be oppurtunity wherever anybody could look. The class system would become irrelevant. The relative value of "things" would be identical. I suspect people would focus on the arts and sciences vs scrapping to stay alive...

I was going to suggest Athens. -Stockholm -Prague -Moscow -Rome -Venice I plan on seeing these places sometime in my life.

I live in a room with four walls a roof and a ceiling. Almost like a cube but not quite. The room is dark with a bluish hue. It's not so dark that you can't see anything but light enough to be able to maneuver without stubbing your toe. There is a mattress on the floor in one of the corners...

I don't think tattooing 'insane' on your back is going to get your message across. People will look at you weird and that would be fun but, its going to get old fast. I do believe in self expression but, this definitely isn't the way to do it. (It very well could be, I'm making assumptions of...

Some of us are blessed. Although I'm sure down the road the ole metabolism starts slowing down from the speed of a racehorse. I usually like to eat chips. Salt & Vinegar are the best. If that's not available: applesauce, cold pizza, canned pineapple, popcorn, sandwich. Stuff that I can make...

Do you think this game is worth the money Sapphire? I'm trying to justify the time and money that it would cost. I played the demo a bit and got to only scratch the surface of a praetor build. I'd be interested to see how a kingmaker game goes. Let me know what you think about the...

I HATE this line of thinking. Elitist bullshit is what that is. It's just a name. That's all. Shit like this makes me lose faith in society. What is the purpose of going to college? It's so you can acquire knowledge to perform a specific skill. It's not like the knowledge from MIT or Harvard...

People that I care about I get attached to. I can easily find something in another person that would make me care about them. I'm at a point in my life where I can't have people or things tying me down. My defense is to stay distant and never let myself become vulnerable. Severing the tie is...

I think its purely ego. We, as introspective as we are, are more aware of who we are and who our ego is. The ego to me is a blood lusting man anxious for battle with his finger on the big red button at all times- Alert! Alert! Man all battle stations we are going to war! I hate it when people...

I knew a girl who tried to smoke catnip when out of bud. (She was never the brightest). She said nothing happened except a headache. I read about people doing or suggesting catnip and i just shake my head /sigh

Interesting concept Blob. Society does feel very ritualistic and fake. You can look at such things as political correctness for proof. Has anybody had a core-shaking, reality shattering "what the fuck!?" experience? It happens occasionally to me when I'm going about my usual day. Something...

Driver I can see that. In groups at school I tend to take charge. I need to have an overall goal or I may as well be doing nothing.

Add another to Time Control

What are you smoking crack? I would choose homework over tests anyday. Ok, I don't know what level of schooling you are but, I find that most of my learning/understanding comes from doing homework problems. Yes, I drag my feet to start them but, once you get going you find a set of brain...

I like going for walks. Sometimes I just walk around town at night because it is so much more peaceful, very little traffic. It's especially nice when it's a summer night because I absolutely love the sound of crickets and frogs. There is this one park that has kind of a peninsula with a...

The reason I chose to become a mechanical engineer is because of a fantasy book I read. It was about a tinkerer who worked for a king building all kinds of war machines. I realized in essence this character was an engineer. And before that I used to draw pictures of war scenes. Weapons and...

Very true on the anger/respect thing. I think its our ability to see the overall picture and then figure out what steps must be taken to get there.

Emergency decisions? I have been around when two friends (different occasions) have been seriously injured. Each time I went into auto-pilot mode and took control of the situation. It was really strange now that I think about it. It's like there is a giant lurking in the shadows that only...

Im with kantor on this one. If you are going go all out. If your cousin's friend is just using you flip it around on him. Better yet make him look like a douchebag. I think this would be a good time if only for that reason. Call me an asshole, sounds like he could use a wake up call. You...

That's a powerful story Hawkeye, thank you for sharing. I'm sure you learned something important from this event? By no means are traumatic events easy to get through. I think we have a faster recovery because we lock ourselves inside our heads and resolve. There was an event in my life where...

To mentally explore the possibilities of course. There is no rule set in stone.

This phrase is meant as a final stop. A save face on the ego that refuses to look another way. Any other mode of thinking is out of the question because other modes of thinking could unseat the ego from its throne of control, god forbid. My bet is that whatever you said or did was taken by...

I meant they get that deer in the headlights look. The squirrels watch you to make sure you don't try to chase them down or something, like a predator. ... damn i sound crazy:D

I hear you on that load of shit. You're walking along, everything seems fine then all of a sudden you look down, the floors not there. Sadly it the truth. One thing I've learned is that you have to play office politics if you want to go places. I've been in this situation many times. It's too...

Yea this is an odd thing. I do the same thing, all of a sudden I know. It's impossible for me to describe how or why I know. The feeling is so satisfying though. Sometimes I feel like a computer. I am terrible at articulating my thoughts when speaking. Writing is much easier because you get to...

Ah shit, sorry. My sister who is studying physical therapy was telling me that drugs like meth and heroin cause such an explosion of dopamine in your brain that it permanently ruins your receptors. Sure you might feel like god for a few hours but never again. This is where I would imagine the...

DEA- drugs every afternoon. There is nothing like smoking a fat link after a stressful day. Feel your worries melt away. Everything begins to make sense. Alternate, in-depth modes of seeing the world around you. I recommend that everybody try it out at least once just so they can question...

Something that I think is interesting is that in your vulnerable state is actually when you are the strongest, truest expression of your self, kind of paradoxical, but thats the way I see it. Damn society for oppression. As to your previous post- I think its time to get yourself a new lens...

The only person you have to rely on is yourself. The only words that matter are your own. The only person who can say you fail is you. The only person standing in your path is you. To me depression is self inflicted. When I was depressed (2 long years) I learned that it was caused by me. I did...

Ahahaha. This is too perfect. And then you get accused of having some kind of mystical powers. I don't know if this is a me thing or an INTP thing but, when I walk on campus occasionally a squirrel will dart out in front of my path and then run back to where it came from. (Place is littered...

I remember going to my uncle's wedding when I was about 10. So what I did was take a bunch of the balloons they had at the reception and tied them all together to float around a plate with a piece of food on it. I even got a cousin of mine who was the same age to make one of his own. Good times...

I think we already have achieved what you describe. The only reason that I found this place is because I typed INTP into google. It's better to call the INTP "label" a symbol instead. Kind of like the golden arches of McDonald's or the American flag. In this case it would symbolize the type of...

Fear of heights is a big one for me. I refuse to jump out of a plane, or climb a ladder more than 20 feet. If I'm in a plane or something, no big deal. I've grown to enjoy roller coasters though. Socialphobia- usually, sometimes when I'm in the mood for it, it's not so bad. I'm starting to get...

A simple no would have sufficed. --- Why so many hostile reactions? I took this to be a kick in the ass to do something useful to mankind. Is this not admirable? Over population is going to become a very serious issue in the future. I would not be surprised if the States, EU and elsewhere...

I just watched Memento. Holy shit mind fuck. Probably the best of those kind of movies that I've seen. Makes me feel like I could go insane thinking about it :eek: That movie was incredibly well done. -Gladiator -Braveheart (I guess I like one man vs the world movies) -Scorched (I don't know...

I doubt that many people here have come to that realization Squid. I am willing to bet that you went through some sort of "wake-up call" experience in your life? Most likely a traumatic event? This is how I came to the realization that the possibilities are infinite, what truly matters,etc...

Of course they would have to sit in the back or, else ride on their own designated bus that only comes around every hour. Seriously OP, why? What does it matter what choices a person makes? And for the fact that its something you don't understand doesn't mean you need to fear it or hate it. We...

Agreed. The state death penalty is an act of revenge. I think rotting away in prison for the rest of your life is a far greater punishment than being set free by death. I do not think murders should have any rights in prison other than basic human necessity (food, water, shelter)- none of this...

I've always wondered what it would be like to be in a group of people that stimulates intellectually. Being able to explore the four corners of all ideas, strengthening thought and all of this without people getting mad!... because we have an understanding. It's my internet home. Blob its...

What would you use something like that for? I'm picturing it being fixed to some bearings and doing nothing but create bad vibration. It's an interesting concept. I am usually spending my time thinking about this kind of stuff. So heres an idea of mine: Lets say you have a .22 cal gun. The...

When I find myself in shit situations I remind myself: 'this too shall pass.' It helps to put things in perspective. Childhood is only training for real life.
