Who am I?

[Arbitrary Prototype]

Who am I? Where am I going? I figure strangers who don't know me can give better answers besides my constantly over-analyzing self. For those that need to do their research (like me) I only have roughly 15 posts, so I just made it easier for you.

Thanks.

I don't know who you are or where you're going. Sorry.

Your are the all encompassing Lord Ernest Hemmingworth. The direction that your are heeading in life is east.

To understand why your are heading east we must look at where you have come from. a.k.a. your past.

Being Ernest Hemmingworth. Your life has been full of misery and pain. This is because you suffer from erectile dysfunction. Since you suffer from erectile dysfunction no young and attractive girls can entice you to marry them so they can adopt your enormous fortune. Your life is and has been always determined by your fortune which is comprised of the world's largest collection of cuttlefish. Those in the consumer mass pay to see and take photos of your collection of cuttlefish because it is unlike any other collection of cuttlefish. Your adverts on the talking box show you, a proud Hemmingworth reiterating your world famous catch phrase 'Let us never forget the cuttlefish. Lord Ernest Hemmingworth here and that's what I say.' With the usual nod and wink.

Due to your vast fortune you were invited to join the Super Adventure club. However, your erectile dysfunction has disabled you from participating in the Super Adventure Club's activities. At the age of 46 you were aborted from the club. Thus becoming the first Hemmingworth to ever be aborted. It was a very special occasion for you.

Coincidentally, all Hemminworths at the age of 46 manifest a philanthropist streak. From the goodness of your heart you created and funded the world's first N.G.O. solely devoted to mending ducks whom leg or legs have been broken. This has not come without its controversies. A group of Ernest Hemmingworth's mended ducks set upon a small school girl and mutilated her. To restore you and the cuttlefish image your created another N.G.O. solely devoted to the mending of Hemmingworth mended duck mutilated school girls. Consumer sentiment soon restored and consumers were once again paying for images of your vast collection of cuttlefish.

Since, you never forget the cuttlefish you are heading east across the country to the giant lavatory where the cuttlefish are kept. The lavatory has just been refurbished and requires your Hemmingworth stamp of approval. The Hemmingworth stamp of approval was created back in the 1600s by Lord Capital Hemmingworth to sell his assorted gruel products. No body really knew why the gruel was assorted but assorted none the less.

This is where I leave Lord Ernest Hemmingworth. I hope I have cleared up your past and future.


HEMMINGWORTH!!

establish an identity
read autobiographies of people you want to mimic
develop skills needed
become who ever you want


INTPs are some of the few capable of this

There is no inherent self, you were not born with an encoded personality, no fate rules the choices you make or the person you are for making them, so I suppose my answer to your question would be that there is no answer, at most you are a singular expression of an infinite possibility.

Deal with it.

at most you are a singular expression of an infinite possibility.

Pet peeve: people who describe VERY VERY VERY large sets as being infinite. We live for a finite amount of time. Current physics tells us that time itself is essentially discrete (with nothing that can be described in any fashion occurring in any window of time smaller than a Planck time, or about 5.4*10^-44 seconds), so that means there are only finitely many events (even events on the level of individual electrons in our bodies) that occur in our lives. I think it's safe to assume that each of these, given any prior collection of events, has only finitely many possible outcomes. A product of finitely many finite numbers (which leads to the total number of possibilities) is finite. Astonishingly large, perhaps, but finite.

I agree with your sentiment though. There is no inherent "you". You have to make that for yourself.
