I'm usually silent and I don't have any friends, however, when I do talk to someone as in having an argument or discussing something without having to care about gaining something from the person: I usually talk a lot; I don't mind interrupting if he/she says something I see appropriate to throw a comment at, contradicting his/her point they are making; I don't mind expressing my precise radical opinions about the topic; I don't mind taking someone else's side just for the havoc, fun and curiosity.
As far as I'm concerned, that's pure ENTP-ishness. Another thing that is from the description of an ENTP, but I think it should fall under an INTP's description is that I'm good at anything I'm interested in and quite often I get really exited about my ideas (though the opposite effect hits me when I realize I don't have the means to make them work (money)). Another thing from the description is being mentally quick and verbally fluent, the ability to understand the situation. I'm also paying extreme attention to details that may be unimportant. Although I believe that most of this is applicable for an INTP as well, so it gets an extra column.

INTP fits me because I'm usually silent in most situations, whether I feel too shy to say something, or I have nothing to say, or the people that I'm conversing with are gonna be needed for something which won't happen if I'll uncover that my ideas are different than theirs. I live a rich live "inside" instead of outside, and I do need a break after say an hour or two of conversation, even if it's say an online game we're playing and it's important and useful for me to talk - a few minutes with no conversation feels good. I prefer being with one guy than a company, as company usually would respect different opinions even more. Nonetheless, I can get my point across much better in that case. Although, if everyone would listen to what I'm saying, my ideas, etc., I'd prefer more people.
Taken from the description, I'm always creating various theories and disproving other theories, I absorb knowledge that is interesting to me as a sponge, I'm very skeptical and I don't trust anybody, I hate routines and I love complexity, precision and details, while also ignoring any rules, regulations, opinions or unwritten laws. I do not value any subjective decisions and I do not respect extra-irrational people who in exchange disrespect me. I love correctness and I hate false facts. I demand people to go to the point unless it's interesting, which is rare. I'm very independent and unconventional, usually quite original with great imagination. I don't mind abandoning projects I'm solved in my head, even though it is unsolved on the paper. I have trouble explaining things to others, as I don't like getting into details that I think should be already known by anyone at least half intelligent, and I expect them to understand me when I'm using fancier words and advanced sentence structure.
That is pure INTP-ishness, as far as I'm concerned.

INTJ fits me a bit less: I organize things like folders on my PC, bookmarks, etc., sometimes I plan what I'm gonna do the next day even though I don't have to. Another thing is that I like being in charge of what I do, for example I've been offered a lot of moderator positions of game servers, but I declined as I couldn't touch the files and change the rules - control the situation, and more importantly, have the genuine and full ownership to the servers. I wouldn't mind someone doing moderator's work for me, but I do pick people really carefully, and prefer to re-judge the situations, ask for details and see if they've done what I would've done. I do not, however, take on leadership positions in situations where I am not interested in, unless, for example in school projects when the rest of my team are suckers, just to get a better mark though.
From the personality description: I'm quite quick to make judgements about people, situations or other things, and I think that I am right unless proven that I'm wrong with a fact and not an opinion. I'm often misunderstood, and I usually blame this on the other party, as mentioned in the INTP section. I often dismiss other peoples' opinions, which makes me arrogant, and sort of an elitist, especially by the fact that I like fancier items that cost significantly more, as they are much more comfortable. For example, even though I don't have much money, I prefer to save another year to buy a better keyboard instead. I also hate inefficient people and am trying to do things as efficiently as possible.
These are quite a few points of INTJ-ishness.

I haven't found many (or any in some cases) similarities with any other types. This has been puzzling me for quite some time now, so I've decided to post this and share it, see what others have to say.
P.S. Another interesting thing - my Ti/Te scores are quite similar in most tests.
