They've gotten me into plenty of trouble, especially during my high school years as I was developing the filter between my brain and my mouth, i.e. threatening to stab teachers with forks, etc. Dare I say my Ti wasn't yet fully developed?
All the same, I'm addicted to Ne moments. Ne means an idea flash, a literal flash of light that commands my attention, burns energy, and keeps me awake/active for days.

...... I once threw a rock (carelessly) from a balcony that landed on someone's head. Ne moment? Uh... yeah. My Ti sometimes controls my urges to do stupid things, but sometimes it doesn't always retain control and the aforementioned happens.

I was drunk, jumping in puddles to splash my girlfriend every time we'd walk by one while laughing hysterically every time I did it. 8 year old in a 20 year old's body I guess.

After re-reading it, I think my initial response was an Ne moment O.o

Pretty much. The same seems to be true with ENTPs. Duh, Ne dominants. haha We're just giant kids.
Ne use to get the best of me when i was little and caused me to burn down the basementI wanted to see fireworks
ever since then Ti always dominated Ne
Don't even get me started on that...
As a youngster, I helped burn down some couple's garage when they were away on vacation. Luckily, they didn't press charges.
My younger brother and some local neighborhood kids were all involved.
My brother is an ENTP.... LOL
And yeah... as with throwing rocks from balconies, I learned to go nowhere near fire ever again... Ti to the extreme.
Oddly enough, my brother (now an adult) breaks every single one of society's rules. He's addicted to drugs, dropped out of school, and doesn't own his own home, living with various relatives. =| -- too much Ne can kill your life.

But looking back I think those Ne moments provided me with lots of new experiences and life lessons which wouldn't be possible had the Ti intervened too much.

More when younger. Or when drunk. Once stole a tree. Typically Ti squashes it though. Wish it didn't.

Yeah, getting drunk definitely inhibits the hell out of my Ti, so that my Ne actually starts to shine through. And once that happens, anything is bound to happen. I once took off my clothes and stood naked in front of a bunch of friends when I was wasted. I just thought it would be a good idea, didn't think about it, and did it. Later on, I realized how irrational it was. But I actually enjoy doing things on the basis of temptation with no second-guessing. There's some sort of freedom in it that really makes me feel good.
Also, as a result of getting so drunk, I tend to become much more "social." Rather than a super-logical hermit, I turn into a semi-gregarious ENTP sort of dude, making jokes and playing around, without the serious face from hell. And many people have told me that I'm too serious, argumentative, and critical when I'm sober. They don't seem to like it.

People think I'm high all the time even though I've never even seen weed in real life. That has to count for something.
When my little brother and I are together, Ne practically gets splattered on the walls. Our SJ family is so embarrassed when we start dancing in public.

Haha people used to always think I was high when I was younger before I ever got high.
When I actually get high it's pretty miserable though. Not at all happy-go-lucky hippy munchin on junk-food, I get super paranoid and sequester myself to my room alone. I never laugh, and just listen to a lot of music and think about how everyone was perceiving me like an idiot until it's over. Other drugs are fun though.

^ I have been wrongly accused of being "high" or "on drugs", on a few occasions. I even had to do a sobreity test because the police officer was adamant I was under the influence of marijuanna. I suppose this is due to my lethargic demeanor. However, it is sometimes attributed (back to the topic) to my occasional sober Ne moments.
^Yup. Not verbatim with your example, but I can relate.

@xbox - I think you're Ne dom too. o_o
Sumthin' liek 80% of Ne-lead forumers reject their Ne dominance due to the stigma of not wanting to associate themselves with being an extrovert. They don't consider themselves confident in the real world, or sociable.
But as evident in this thread, Ne is not really well received socially. The wackiness can lead to a lot of embarrassment and name-calling. Ne children do get picked on for their eccentricities and are often antisocial and keep to themselves, since people aren't a viable option for stimulus. They're introverted by the common sense of the word, but mentally oriented toward abstracting from things physical - the imaginary.

Ne/Si moments
...... I once threw a rock (carelessly) from a balcony that landed on someone's head. Ne moment? Uh... yeah. My Ti sometimes controls my urges to do stupid things, but sometimes it doesn't always retain control and the aforementioned happens.
An INTP is supposed to have these functions: Ti Ne Si Fe. I'm going to speculate that Ne and Si back each other up. In both cases we could guess something general kicked off rock throwing and the puddle splashing. That was Ne. No Ti was operating. The manifestations were sensually specific and meant to give satisfaction for the one who did it. That was Si. It gave each a desired sensual affect. Si. Poor Fe. Poor Fe because in one case "carelessly" and in the other age regression was admitted. I once shot a bee-bee gun out the window. A bee-bee hit a guy in the forehead. If I'd hit him in the eye, I would have sorely regretted it and he too. I avoided repetition at all cost.

Yeah, for me, the rock releasing was (if I can remember correctly) more the result of "curiosity" and "impulse" than anything. Watching the rock fall (if I can also remember correctly) did seem to have some sort of "interesting appeal," as I would wait a while before release them and then just watch as they fell from my hands. Maybe it was some fascination with gravity? I don't really remember.
Also, I think I threw the rocks off in the first place more because they were inappropriately placed on the balcony. For some reason, they just didn't seem best to just "sit there." I remember feeling as though the rocks just needed to be placed in a more appropriate location. Then I'm sure the curiosity and fascination of gravity took over, as I really wanted to see what would happen as the rocks fell from such a great height.
So I'm not really sure what it was, but I sort of got a little OCD with those rocks just "sitting there." I remember feeling bothered by their presence and had to get them out of the way asap (as if they were somehow ruining the aesthetics of the balcony). lol -- Anyway, I so never realized "someone might come walking past -- out of nowhere -- and stand right under the rock's trajectory").
The little girl who incidentally was hit by the rock (with no serious injuries, luckily for me) was basically running with a group of other children around the entire apartment complex, and I suppose they were essentially trying to clear a ten yard dash or something (lol), because I remember hearing yelling and screaming -- as the kids ran underneath -- at the exact same moment I was releasing the rock from my hands. So it was just a really stupid Ne moment in which the most unfortunate series of events seemed to occur all at once. =p Go figure.
I'm not always known for decent forethought in my own actions, as I tend to be very spontaneous, random, and impulsive. Damn Perception! But oddly enough, I'm very quick to point out how other people's actions will inevitably lead to certain outcomes. ..... lol

I am thinking about the meaning of Si. It's supposed to be a tertiary function for an INTP. That means it's not "up there" in consciousness unless one works on it. P King, when you "Watching the rock fall", that probably was Si, not Ne. Even though there was a lot of general viewing of those rocks on the balcony, watching the rock was a specific sensual thing ... meant to be observed by you only (introverted).
I'm remembering my bee-bee experience incorrectly. The boy I hit was the younger brother of the older guy I was aiming at. I recall his mother telling me, "I know you were trying to hit Richie, but you hit Ronnie and raised a welt in his forehead. My memory is Si = very specific ... and a very stupid thing for me to have done (poor Fe).
