Goddamn it, Lobstrich, stop trolling. It may be perfectly natural for us to be able to distinguish right from left, but other people aren't us, and they may have problems with it. It isn't a question of what is or isn't "normal" or "logical." Just shut up about it.

Trolling? Nobody is trolling. I already told oyu that I'm not making fun of anyone. Stop saying that I am, because I'm not.
I'm having a discussion with Words. And it seems that Words is interested in it as I am. Because he/she keeps participating it in.

On behalf of all the Norwegian people, culture, flag, bunad and brown cheese, I am highly offended that you, as a Swede, can't tell the difference!

You always did treat us like dog poo =~(

That's because you have 'No smoking' signs on the bottoms of pools, crawl around in supermarkets in search of low prices and bring car doors to Sahara.

What about Danes then? =)

Hmm, I don't have enough low quality jokes about Danes to have a very well-informed opinion about this. So I'll have to limit this to stating that you all have porridge in your throats.

I never, ever once said you are making fun of anyone. However, I find it quite peculiar that you say Words is interested in this discussion, as, first of all, the discussion is truly about nothing, and, second of all, Words is answering baseless accusations. Can you seriously tell me the point to any post you made in this thread? Because, to me, it seems like you've said that people who fail to distinguish left from right are incredibly unintelligent and how it's "unnatural." Why? So what?

Hahaha, well okay. Come back when you can give me a well informed opinion =p

EDIT: Why porridge though? Lol. I thought potato was the usual thing =p

"Truthfully, it made little sense to me as well, but then I realized that yes, this is serious, and, given my difficulties in many other things, I had no reason to make fun of anyone because he has this problem." You're kind of implying that I'm making fun there. Right?

Anyway, I've never said that one is unintelligent just because one can't do a certain thing.. THAT would be illogical.


And Words is answering to pointless accusations? I never accused Words of anything. I told him/her to stop talking to me like I'm an idiot. That is all.

You draw some funny stuff from all these things.

I can see how it might be interpreted as such, but no, I truly was not trying to imply that you were making fun.

I just can't fathom how one can have trouble telling left from right, I really can't.

Unless of course you have some kind of disability. Then It would make sense if you couldn't scratch your back, count to five or distinguish left from right"
Please, tell me how this ISN'T belittling and insulting of others' intelligence.

Go read Words original reply to you. You asked a dumb question, on a serious thread. That warrants a sarcastic answer.

I can't.. I don't think it's blittling. Maybe I'm just a bit arrogant. I don't know. But I'd think saying "Wow. I only thought people with dissabilities couldn't tell the difference between left and right"

I can say nothing but what you just said to me. You might have interpreted it that way, but I truly was not trying to belittle anyone.

And yea. I admit my initial post might have been a bit dumb.

The problem with you Swedes and Norwegians is you always cling to the North. If you'd come down South every once in a while things would be different. I can't speak for the Danes.

Danes are part of the north actually =o Many don't realise it thought. They think we aren't "nordic" like Sweden and Norway. But in truth we had some of the 'best' vikings with the Norwegians.

Oh with the Norwegians? How's that? Well you see. We owned Norway. Hehe.

EDIT: And hey! How do you know wether or not Swedes and Norwegians cling to the north or not? You live in NY. Hehe

It's obvious by looking at the map. They keep Norway on the left and Sweden on the right. I have no idea what goes down the middle:
http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...iuAQ&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=38&ved=1t:429,r:24,s:0
Those places must be filled with Scandinavians.
Denmark on the other hand sticks out into the North Sea -- or is it the Baltic Sea? Denmark is where some prince called Hamlet resides. I often wonder if he ever got his questions answered about being and not being. Can we type his personality?

I think its a symptom of not being used to assigning symbols. I have the same problem with the XY plane, and words. I just can't get into reading. It's a small indication of not thinking in Ni.

But you're Words...

I have a weird spatial problem: I'm not able to visualize mechanically. I know how to apply direct force, but I cannot alter the dimensions of objects mentally. If this is what ISTPs do when they use Se, I must say I respect them even more. On a few occasions I've actually felt stupid because I couldn't figure out which direction to twist a screw if I turned an object upside down. I think I've touched the tip of what it's like to be unable to think abstractly.

Se mentally alters the dimensions of objects?

Oh and uh...people don't always like themselves.

For ISTPs, yes, I'm pretty sure. Functions have varying abilities in different associations and levels of hierarchy.

Dominant Ti means they live in the world of thinking, logic and structure. Combine that with auxiliary Se, an understanding of power, force, physical space, surface area, boundaries etc and you get a master mechanic. I think they tend get a bad rap in school because they are optimized for thinking mechanically instead of abstractly, which is what school curriculum is mainly focused on.

Off-Topic: Aaaah, reading through old threads. It is funny. When I am in 'debates' like the one me, nil and words had. I go into these zones. As if I am unable to see myself saying this stuff.

Half of my posts do not even make sense in terms of spelling mistakes. But the ignorance in my posts is just funny. It is straight-from-the-head communicating, as I have just changed my Bio to, hehe.
I am glad that I can actually sit here a couple of months (only that) and say, I have learned.

Dude, I am seriously the exact same way. I looked at my first hundred or so posts on this forum about 2 weeks ago, and I can honestly say that just about all of them bewildered me in some way or another. Like, did someone hack my account and post them, or what? However, that is not anything near the rift between my recent posts and pasts posts on another forum. If I were as dumb now as I was then... *shudder*

Thank you for understanding! Do you now realise that It was mere ignorance and not trolling?! Heh.
