Objectively speaking, I cannot define evil, but my intuition tells me the following: Evil is a polarity reversal of Love, where both are dualistic forces, each with an outward force and an inward force. The polarity reversal is in the active vs. passive. For example: Love has an active outward...

I find it incredibly easy to pick up on a language, even in a class setting. Actually, I benefit from the class setting, because otherwise, I wouldn't be motivated to go through with the experience. Within a class, I feel forced and also competitive. I am often the best in my class. I don't feel...

It's amazing what I'll do in the name of irony...

From my own biased analysis, my father is an ESFJ and my mother is an ISTP. Oi.

Hmm, yes, I did. I first took those MBTI tests in 2008 and then I ignored this site for over 2 years. Got a problem with that???

I wish to add something to this thread based on my own experience. It is specifically related to the saying "Just be yourself." and also to what the previous poster mentioned "Don't act; just be." The first statement is true, but it is ineffective when said, because: 1. It sounds like a...

Yeah, cheese. Seriously, I think it's creepy that you are already treating me like your girlfriend. We haven't even had a proper conversation! :b

Wait, so, yes, I understand. Essentially, you mean such a connection.

I'm flabbergasted that such filthy Germanic words have not been replaced by their proper Latin equivalents, in our modern and civilised society. "Oh, copulate off."

A false dichotomy. Or at least I interpret it as such. "If one isn't completely upfront about everything from the start, they are liars and dooming any potential for a relationship with their unhealthy strategies." Ok, so that's not exactly what you said, but if not, then why won't you concede...

Sometimes, when dealing with such subjective things as attraction, logic is rarely the conscious motivational force anyway. Sometimes curiosity is what makes us want to know more about someone/something. Sometimes curiosity, caused by confusing and ambiguous circumstances actually ATTRACTS us...

Sometimes what needs to be hidden is how much a guy is into a girl, because, unless the feeling is mutual, that's a scary thing. I can't imagine *that* being something that could cause problems if the reality eventually becomes more evident after a relationship has been started. ;) Agapooka

There is no such thing a no-brainer. If a statement is made, (e.g. "U SUXX0rz!!11111") it must be justified. If the intent of the statement is to manipulate, this fact will come to light during routine interrogation. Normally, though, I don't pick directly. I just alter my behaviour to...

Whilst I essentially agree with the point you are attempting to make, there is something that I would like to point out. Maybe more than one thing: The "ignoring concept", albeit hugely over-generalised, has some basis in reality. Essentially, when a woman is flooded with attention, the...

Actually, he used the word "usually" and I believe that it's justified, considering the relative difficulty of organising one's diet in a way in which we receive all the necessary nutrients, if it does not include meat. This means that research normally needs to be done in order to design a diet...

Pourquoi de la Scandinavie? En fait, j'habite dans le coin de St-Hilaire, mais je monte à Montréal quotidiennement, car je suis étudiant à McGill.

Zoophilism is a qualificative for intelligence? It wouldn't really be bestiality, seeing as there was no human component to the two score and five minute copulatory interaction. Then again, zoophilism is defined as being a sexual attraction to animals, therefore categorising all non-asexual...

I find that attending Karate gives me the motivation that I otherwise lack. INTPs seem to normally have have high expectations when it comes to their performance, doing something about which they are passionate. Often, this activity isn't so physical, yet I've found that I can become passionate...

If this is about patterns in dreams, I haven't had a recurring dream in a while, but when I was a kid, I remember a dream of a tiny race car, well... racing along a given, bland, but straight road. When the road was not perfectly smooth, I remember cringing in a desperate attempt to make it...

I don't normally remember my dreams, but I recently dreamt that my dog walked off a building and died. And then an identical dog just magically appeared later that day.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. =/

Which languages do you speak?

Re: INTP - INFP I don't think that they cancel each other out in actuality, but they do in tests, because of the scale used. ;) If one answers 50% of the questions in favour of Extroversion and 50% in favour of Introversion, the test will return a 0% preference for either of those. The...

Re: INTP - INFP I did not simply raise the scale; I clarified that the standard scale is not as you put it. It was misleading. As to your second point, I think that you missed my point, as I was not attempting to prove that two numbers, when added together, can make a hundred. I was...

That only has a chance of working if your potential minion doesn't already have a stash thereof...

Who here studies in that field and: 1. Which languages do you study? 2. Which aspect of linguistics interests you the most? My mothertongues are French and English, although I can also speak German and Spanish and had taken a year of Latin in highschool, which prepared me for those two...

Now some people are thinking: 0mgz0rz w1mminz on t3h int3netz!!!!

Oh, everyone was getting drunk and I was just navigating amongst the multitude of idiots, thinking to myself: "why am I here?" and "I'm so glad I'm not like them."

Re: INTP - INFP No. The percentages shown are not on the scale that you described. For example, if you received a result such as 11% Thinking, you'd still be a stronger thinker than feeler, as opposed to an 89% Feeler and 11% Thinker, as your flawed calculations would return. MBTI...

You know, hypothermia becomes painless fairly quickly. I read that some hypothermic victims go through a bizarre stage where they take their clothes off for no logical reason; aka, they weren't suicidal. I've got to say, though, that whereas I used to see death as a better alternative to...

I wouldn't stick my middle finger out whilst making a fist, as it is inefficient and risks my finger's safety. Rather, I would punch to the solar plexus, or to the jaw for that matter, although the former leaves less of a trace. :P I do Karate and I get punched in the plexus quite regularly -...

Oh my. Whatever DO I mean?! :phear:

I would like to propose the theory that it arouses him. Sadists exist.

All right, maybe medieval standards of living weren't low enough. :P In terms of this issue being exploited by politicians, the best word to describe my sentiments thereabout is a the German word selbstverständlich. I mean, it's just going to become another fear tactic to take peoples'...

Then it's a camel.

I went to my prom. I don't think it was worth it in retrospective, except I had this crush on a girl and I wasn't completely myself in the first place... Meh. I must agree on the silly component of humanity. Luckily, I've created defense mechanisms against irrational crushes. It keeps away...

Just reading your description of a nurse piercing someone's skin with a sharp object makes me wince... o.O

I know of two ways to "save the Earth": 1. Reduce the population drastically. 2. Reduce the standard of living to that of the medieval ages, which will also result in a dramatic loss of life. :P Other than that, anything that is done is meaningless. The damage to the environment is not...

I base my view on gender roles on the following assumptions: 1. The general statistic that a majority (70%) of men are Thinking and that a similar majority of women are feelers. 2. That, with the above assumption, the likelihood of a woman fulfilling her traditional role is increased...

O hai. :) NerdSlut? o.O

Yes they do. They give most people the impression that meaningful change has occurred, and so they happily become complacent. See! Holidays make people happy and complacent!

Stupid lawsuits are what make America. :P *so glad I'm Canadian, eh?* Actually, I don't think the Canada escapes those either. Less people here, so less stupidity - but not necessarily proportionally.

That's what keeps me around ;) I suppose everyone has their "I want to die, but I don,t want to take my life away" moments...

Ah yes. It is almost if not the same with me, when it comes to the reasons for the depression. I'd like to add, or clarify, that sometimes it can simply be the realisation that what I am doing now is futile and it is not what I wish to be doing, yet, I apparently have "no choice". Of course...

That's the weird part of being on a forum for INTPs. Despite the fact that the INTP mind is thus, it seems as though some unnatural sense of order is still imposed. I say, threads evolve, and? As long as there is some logic to how it evolved, it's ok. I use the term "logic" fairly loosely...

I'm 2nd year college and I never skipped a year. Figure it out. Maybe he did skip a few years, though... who knows? :P

Whenever I reach such a state, I am glad that I am not an INTJ, as my rationale tends to be "I really wouldn't mind to die right now, but I couldn't be bothered to take such matters in my own hands."

Aye, you are right. I just checked. French: appartement English: apartment Those are the kind of spelling nuances that drive me nuts. <.<

For the purpose of simulating the scenario in my mind as happening to me, I would probably do something ludicrous such as ridicule the school administration anonymously. Well, anonymously to the public, but I'd like the administration to know it was me speaking. I don't think that I need to...
