Hugh Jackman.

I do not fear, for I have the almighty Randall Munroe on my side.

This is the first I've heard anything like this. Generally full-faced smiles are considered more genuine, and smiles with just the mouth are considered awkward.

Guys, guys, can't we all just be friends and agree that cantaloupe is terrible?

I don't really have a preference. So it's essentially up to the other person if we're gonna hug. If they go for it, I'll give it back. If they just hang back, I do the same. The only situations where this results in awkwardness is when the other person isn't sure what they want and I don't...

You sure Adam Savage isn't ENTP? Because he seems like an ENTP.

Eh, I don't see it. Sure INTPs are passive, but not about our emotions. They either come all the way out or not at all. Passive-aggressiveness (aggression?) is the tool of the drama queen. How many drama queen INTPs do you know? Now, I might be willing to buy that people think we're being...

Frankly, I don't trust a lot of people to type themselves. I know that sounds condescending, but it's the truth. And I don't really care to have everyone's type out in the open. Typology is inherently stereotypical, and it's easy to take it too far. Besides, figuring it out for yourself is...

Yep, definitely. I don't orderly work through things in any logical order. I piecemeal it together, starting with whichever part strikes my fancy. Obviously this isn't always ideal, especially with complex problems that aren't easy to hold entirely in my brain.

Er, what? Gaming right now is amazing.

Thinker. All the other choices are just beating around the bush. They all imply an end product, which is simply not important to the INTP. We learn to make ourselves productive because we have to, but it's definitely not our natural state. Yes, it's somewhat presumptuous to name your type...

This. Except it doesn't even matter what the words are. They just steal a word or make something up like ideation, and then they beat it to death over and over and over so that it loses all meaning. I barely even have contact with these people, and it still drives me nuts.

Aside from "how", I'd like to ask you "why". Why drain yourself for the sake of improving a function that isn't compatible with your existing Ne and Si?

Generally I hate them, but that's probably because I have the bad habit of staying up way too late. I might start to like them if I ever manage to break the habit, but it's hard to say how hard-wired that kind of thing is.

Yeah... no.
