INTP's, things you hate

[Dani]

Ok here are a couple of things I hate:

Facebook. It feels very claustrophobic on there and it's full of people posting asinine stuff that nobody cares about. And people having conversations on there that they could have easily had offline or on the phone, but apparently they needed an online audience for their boring BS. I'd delete my Facebook account if it weren't for a very small handful of people who I communicate with in there. I actually prefer twitter, which is strange because I'd never have predicted that I'd become a "twitter person".

I hate bigots, and bullies. And people who say/do deliberately spiteful things just to test the reactions of those around them, and if people aren't impressed they say they were "only joking" when they know they weren't joking at all. They were just testing the waters to see how much of an asshole they can get away with being. So cowardly and dishonest.

I have plenty more but those are it for now.

Yeah, FaceBook sucks. I now just use it as a convenient address book for lots of high school friends and people I don't otherwise engage much but want to have a way to contact, and mostly only interact with 5-6 people at best who aren't posting inane crap all the time.

 

[Seteleechete]

I hate bad computers and to many clichés in a book.

 

[SpaceYeti]

Haven't read the whole thread, but since they're my hates I guess it doesn't matter if I repeat something.

* I hate busy-bodies who think they have the right to suggest how I should live my life. I'm a simple man, and understand what I want. I could stay home a large part of the week and be perfectly happy, but then people will tell me I need to go experience the world and see cultures and shit. I have nothing against those new experiences or cultures (I'm always down for doing something that my wife wants to do), but to suggest my life is missing something because I would rather just relax at home, probably working on my latest project or hobby or game or whatever, pisses me off. This was especially prevalent when I was still in the Army.

* I hate when people find out I'm an atheist and say something along the lines of "If you don't believe in God, what do you believe in?!"

* I hate when people I'm close to act in blatantly sexist, racist, or whatevrist ways. I have no problem being the one in the relationship to take care of the lawn or the garbage, or whatever, but I don't think I should be doing those things because I'm "the man".

* I hate when people say a hobby (anyone's, not just mine) is a waste of time. Of course it's a waste of time, but it's a waste of time that brings joy to that person's life. It's not a distraction from the important things, it's the reason they do all the other crap they don't like, so they can afford to get back to the hobby.

* I hate when people discuss how intelligent someone is as though it's a measure of their worth in some manner. I won't say I don't respect intelligence, i do, but a person's worth is what they do, what they bring to the table, not how much useless information they've crammed into their head. Also, I'm not against jamming information in your head (in fact, it can be helpful, and I advocate it), just that it's not a measure of worth.

* I hate people helping me when I didn't specifically request it. This is a big reason my wife and I argue sometimes. She thinks you should always help people if you're capable of it, whereas I specifically dislike help I haven't asked for, because the helper generally throws me out of my groove or otherwise gets in the way. I notice it especially in the kitchen. She'll get mad I'm not helping, I'll get slightly irritated she's in my way. Granted, my being aware of this difference reduces my irritability. I know she's just trying to be nice.

* I hate when people say "could of", "would of", or "should of". I'm normally not much of a grammar nazi, but this one just erks me.

* I hate when people complain/worry/stress-out/cry about things that the getting anxious about it does either nothing or impede's their ability to carry on. Getting upset about something doesn't fix the problem, so shut up and go fix the problem.

 

[scorpiomover]

What do I HATE? Inconsistency. People who claim to be rational and moral, but use irrational and immoral arguments to justify their views, and their personal and national agendas. It's become the norm now in modern secular society. It's destroying our civilisation.

Maybe, and I'm just throwing the idea out there, but maybe you're not as rational as you think you are, and you simply don't understand people's argument, or disagree with them for less than rational reasons yourself.

Just throwing that out there.

 

[Pizzabeak]

Consistency is hobgoblin for the feeble minded.
"People who claim to be rational and moral, but use irrational and immoral arguments to justify their views"

This is something else. Sounds like feelers who wish they had a T instead. Or maybe someone got pegged as a T type but got tired of doing homework all day and/or got pressured/peer into hanging out and got tired of that too and they still need to finish projects.

 

[letspaniclater]

The phrases "It is what it is" and "I feel like[...]" are the only things to come immediately to mind. I dislike any sort of phrasal crutch, really, but those two veer into hate.

 

[rainman312]

• people who talk to me incessantly
• people who ignore evidence
• people who can't think rationally
• people who ask me, "What book are you reading?"
• owls
• Rush Limbaugh
• when Amazon says my stuff will be here in two days and it shows up a week later
• when people steal my pens

 

[Alias]

Why do you hate owls? I agree, though, Rush Limbaugh is very ignorant. Occaisionally I'll put his books under the 'Comedy' or 'Fiction' section in the library or bookstore. People also have a tendency to thieve my writing utensils.

 

[EditorOne]

Privilege, authority, privileged authority, sanctimoniously ignorant and righteous people eg Sean Hannity, and the falsely meek who wring their hands and mew Jesus while scheming to stick a knife in your back without anyone noticing. I'm also not good with deceivers, betrayers, multinational corporations, beets and lima beans.

Do you live near owls? I despise owls. They never shut up. 3am in the fucking morning, whooo whooo whooo. They're so loud and annoying. Damned owls.

I definitely strongly agree with all of these. I get a lot of shit for being an atheist, especially considering I'm not even old enough to move out of my parent's house, and my parents are pretty religious. I can also definitely agree with your dislike of stressed-out/anxious people who freak out at the smallest things. For example, where I go to school, it's common for everyone in the class to whine/complain/freak out just before any type of assessment, be it a major test or a tiny quiz. It gets really annoying when people start repeatedly making verbal appeals to their deity asking them to change the questions on the test so they won't fail. Yes, that has actually happened.

[Jennywocky]

I hate it when God changes the questions on the test just because some asshats are too stupid to know the answers. (I mean, god, WTF man??? You want stupid people in heaven?)

 

[onesteptwostep]

hehe, your theism is glinting off jenny, watch out!

I don't live where any are, except maybe one. But I think it's another bird. I've only seen videos and pictures. I like them as a bird of prey, but maybe they're loud as fuck.

 

[Jennywocky]

Could you explain?

DAMMIT.

god please can you change that question? ^^

 

[rainman312]

Oh, and phone calls. Especially unnecessary phone calls, for example, when people call you, "just to say hello," or "just to check in". This is one of the most annoying things. Then people think I'm mad at them because I don't warmly accept their friendly phone call. No, I'm not mad at you, I just don't need to talk to you.

 

[Architect]

DAMMIT.

god please can you change that question? ^^

I'm not god but I'll do my best

 

[letspaniclater]

Privilege, authority, privileged authority[...]

I'll add "unacknowledged privilege" to this list.

 

[RandomGeneratedName]

I hate this thread, because this is the 3rd hour i've being sitting around trying to write something clever.

because they blame coding.

Hate is a strong word but i definitely feel gradually agitated as i read an argument on the internet between two people that know deep down they wont accomplish anything apart from making eachother look ignorent. That and when people feel like they need to use twice as many words than they need to in able to convey a point, to make themselves look smart.

i think when you try to understand the things you hate, its replaced with intrigue
i think everything is inherently beautiful. Sometimes beauty can be an illusion, but sometimes illusions can be beautiful

Overarching authority, excessive conformity, having to support systems doomed to failure, human's pack animal nature, negative eroei, exponential curves vs finite resources.

[Torojan]

Architect, I agree with yours for the most part. I have a lot of pet peeves when it comes to food too. I thought that was just one of my quirks, but maybe it's an INTP thing. The worst is when you're eating in front of someone and they ask you a question while you're putting food in your mouth, and the whole room turns and watches you chew. Ugh. Also, it's incredibly annoying when someone brings a strong-smelling food (e.g., peanut butter), into an enclosed area like a car.

And when you show someone something amazing and they're apathetic, it's probably worse than the food thing. A lot worse. The worst is when someone asks you a question about a topic you're obsessed with, and you go through the trouble to explain it, and they're just like "meh". *sigh*

Goddamn I hate that. This is why I dislike eating with others, they have to talk so much while doing it. Then people will talk with their mouths full, and expect you to do the same. Disgusting.

I'm compelled to disagree here. For starters, I'm not concerned with whether or not a food is simple or complex. I'm more concerned about what's in it (is it going to extend your lifespan or shorten it) and how it tastes.

I have no problem with people asking me questions while I'm eating save for maybe when it's obnoxiously performed. It could be that I'm used to it, living in a household of an ESTP stepdad, ENFP mother and ESTJ brother (dear lord idk how the latter happened). How I've learned to react to the situation is to point to my cheek and smile, indicating that I will chew my food first before speaking, and then answer the question normally, maybe even with a side remark of how something was tough to chew and/or tiring my jaw. I disagree with the idea that it's just an INTP thing, but feel free to prove me wrong.

Lastly, I don't mind strong smelling foods as long as I don't hate the smell. I might even make a comment like, "I smell X food." I'm surprisingly used to small talk; one might think I'm a sensor lol.

...

Anyway, to reply to the topic, stuff I hate? There isn't much I truly hate because, as RedBaron was saying earlier, there are multiple perspectives that I will try in order to reach an understanding as to why it is the way it is. It probably won't convince me to assimilate, if appropriate, but it won't irritate me (as much). With that said, though, there are a few things I truly don't like:


* When I'm in a conversation with someone, I point out an inconsistency in their logic, and they fail to acknowledge it. This screams SJ and/or F for me, lol.
* At the movies, it takes one crybaby (literally) to ruin the experience. Usually, if a family has to carry a loud baby around, I'd consider possibilities like accident babies, unfortunate circumstances in general, you get it...but when it comes to the movies, just hell no. That's when my mind shuts down and gets irritated.
* Videos buffering and lagging in general annoys me.

 

[Jungle]

The only pet peeve that comes to mind is finding out how a movie ends if I haven't seen it yet. I feel I have been robbed of the experience of watching that film with fresh eyes.

 

[Sinny91]

Hate is a strong word that decribes a strong and destructive emotion. I wouldn't use the term liberally.
I suppose I hate:

1) Psycopathic, perverted and in-bred Elites
2) When people interupt my thoughts with no good cause
3) Being awoken from a dreaming slumber
4) People who are so damn sure about everything
5) Cruelty
6) The meaninglessnessof existance, although I suppose that's more of a love hate relationship.

Apart from the elites, I try not to hate the people themselves, just the circumstances of the things I hate.

 

[Knick]

Egomaniacs and anyone who answers a question with "Because I said so".

 

[Girrawaa]

Depends what you mean by joke really. I can't really be bothered deconstructing every particular instance of entitlement-derived hatred for the purpose of demonstrating the ultimate and inherent stupidity, ignorance and futility of holding such a hatred.

I figure most people are smart enough to read between the lines on either an intellectual or emotional level (both preferably) and pay close enough attention to what I both did and also didn't say so as to not grossly misunderstand.

No, no you don't. I don't believe you think most people are intellectually or emotionally advanced enough to understand most jokes you make unless you dumb them down for a particularly average or in other words stupid audience (really hoping that wasn't an inside joke). I think people are referring to particular events that get on there nerves and are not referring to a true hatred, this is probably why he thought you were joking previously.

 

[narcissistic]

Don't hate anyone/thing,
I don't have enough energy to care about hating anyone/thing.

If I dislike someone/thing then I just ignore them, much easier and energy efficient.

 

[Grayman]

No, no you don't.

Id almost think you are a regular.

 

[QuickTwist]

Being micromanaged is probably my least favorite thing I can think of barring physical pain/death/torture.

Depression is pretty bad too.

 

[The Grey Man]

I hate it when people watch me work, when people ask what I'm thinking, when people make a fuss about trivial things, when people unreservedly state their beliefs as fact despite being incapable of or unwilling to demonstrate their logical descendence from said facts, when people ridicule logical interpretations of the universe (as if there's any other way to interpret it without making claims that may have no reference to reality), and when people say that philosophy is useless (an evaluation that follows from a teleological ethical system, ultimately a philosophical proposition; one's implicit "afterthought" philosophy is held to determine the utility of philosophical thought, the very mechanism through which utility is logically defined).

 

[Crux_Cheetah]

I hate illogical discrimination.
I especially hate sexism and racism.

 

[Ecclesiastic]

I despise emotional decision making, verbal or written correspondence lacking substance and/or fact, blind obedience or concurrence based upon mere credential verses research, "sheep", small talk for the sake of speaking itself, those who pretend to be introverts because it looks cool, pretenders in general, those who view introversion as a disease needing to be cured by forced socialization, double standards, people who ask questions then get offended by honest answers, people who ask questions that they already know the unpleasant answers to, and being dragged out of my beautiful and interesting internal world by idiots who choose to pollute the air with meaningless and unmitigated rhetoric and propaganda. That's just to name a few things.

4) People who are so damn sure about everything .

I realize you said "everything" but I'm often accused of being this. My defense is that I stay quiet if I don't know or I'll ask questions. But when I do know something and someone is asking I speak with confidence.
I'm quite bothered by wishy washy responses. I often see both sides of arguments but when I present my thought on it I say it in a way that explains both thoughts and the supporting facts. I guess it's hard to explain when I can't think of a good example.

Speaking with surety about that which you do have certainty and emperical validity differs greatly from being sure about everything, inclusive of that which lacks facts or evidence.

Speaking with surety about that which you do have certainty and emperical validity differs greatly from being sure about everything, inclusive of that which lacks facts or evidence.

Like I said, I'm often accused of this by others. The problem is that my thirst for knowledge has my head full of quite a large bag of facts. Even if I don't know the answer I often have a factual peice of information to add to the conversation that I'll couple with a theory of how I think it might work. But I word it that way so everyone is clear that this is just my opinion not fact. The problem is most people lack confidence when they speak and in situations at the workplace manager and bosses gravitate towards the confidence. So people view me as a "know it all" because the guy on top values what I say often times. Now that I'm older I tend to stay quite more even if I do know the answer because I would rather not have to deal with other people. I'd rather do in a way that isn't right or takes longer as long as I'm not responsible for the idea and I wont interact with people more than I have to.

 

[bvanevery]

I hate having any kind of boss. So I don't.
I hate Judgers, especially Sensor Judgers. That's very similar to the above.
I hate demagogues like Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter.
I hate bureaucratic piles of computer code. So I live out of a car.

 

[Tannhauser]

It may sound like a typical arrogant wannabe-intellectual thing, but I truly cannot stand when people persistently interview me about banalities and various everyday details. I dont really know why, but It corrodes me psycholgically and depletes my emotional energy extremely fast.
