Thats a nice idea! So elephants have an intense day, when they are out grazing. Lots of action :elephant: I found the delayed consoisness experiiment I mentioned. it is called the Libet experiment. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroscience_of_free_will#

That is the core of it! Totally agree. We are constanty fed a stream of expectations from extrovert media and society,about how to behave. When I accepted that they were different and I was in my right. It cleared the air for me!

The experience is the reward. The formalities are just uncomfortable. The people who chase paper to frame, end up feeling empty when they have reached the top of their careers. We are told to always look forward to end of term or end of grade school, so you can be one of the big kids or end of...

Hi TylerT, That is a heavy burden. But you also have experience beyond what most people have, and an insight into what drives your reactions. Those are good things to build on. I dont know what to say as advice or comfort. I have tried to draft several. But this is a good place to discuss...

Both feed the big corporations, both cost health, both can kill you if used excessively. i have never seen the point in smoking, and only drink a few times a year for the taste. I allways abstain when social pressure is forcing me. Out of principle :evil:

Overall, you scored as follows: 2% scored higher (more nerdy), 1% scored the same, and 97% scored lower (less nerdy). What does this mean? Your nerdiness is: All hail the monstrous nerd. You are by far the SUPREME NERD GOD!!! Which is shocking, I had expected to be a lowly demi Nerd

Jman, that commune sounds fun but we should have a captive E or two to keep us entertained if we need it.

My dreams and goals are done. It is a major concern for me right now. What to do next. I dream about a lot of goals, but my experience makes them shrivel down to become tasks pretty quick. And the fun is gone. I would love suggestions ... Edit: Just to clarify the need for new goals. I own a...

Those are the most exquisite of goals!

Hi Alias, I was just reading the hate and love thread. Funny. It seems you guys go back a long way.

Yes, I am a designer. or rather I was a designer and am now a design teacher. However that sentence was badly designed:o

Hi, Pyro!

I dropped out of university, fooled around for a while started a business with two friends, dropped out of engineering college, worked as an orthopedic assistant, dropped out of that and finally found what i was looking for at age 25. Completed a master degree worked in that profession for two...

Blarraun, you argued well for objective time, but also consider socialy regulated time and emotional time. I read some Heidegger once and he mentioned that there might be three types of rationality, although our society only credits two of them as true, in totally different contexts. Objective...

Hi The Additional1, great intro! The boxology on that creativity site gave me the creeps. Creativity is deep research, wild analogies, and listening to that little whisp of a feeling that there might be something that connects this to that. Most researchers, managers and engineers try to...

Hi! I think tigers and lions both think they are the best. And they can continue living in that reality as they very rearly meet. Pandas on the other hand are like INTPs. They know they are in the minority and fumble along as best they can. There should be one government for each world, so...

I have come to accept my wrinkled shirts and they dont bother me much anymore, although I fondly remember a period of almost a year, 12 years ago, when I ironed them!

I smiled in recognition to most of these posts. I am most uncomfortable with parties, and with talking to people I dont know, for instance in shops and public places or on the phone. I have lots of ideas, and thoughts that I spend considerable time dreaming about and researching, but never...

I chose glider because I have a feeling of gliding through life, never really being attached to it, and because I like flying RC gliders

You are right about Norway, its mostly defined by its coastline with fishing, shipping and offshore oil. The people you mentioned are Swedes I think, I dont know them, sorry.

Hi animekitty, my cat is a 12 year old abbysinian, and my wife is the E in the household

Ok I see that my intro was a bit lame. I became a designer for the visual thinking about things that dont yet exist part of it. I am a buddhist because I see the mind as a source of a lot of suffering in the world, and I called myself glider because discos launch rc gliders are a hobby. I love...

New member as of two minutes ago. I'm an INTP from Norway, in the middle of life, with a family, a job and a cat. Its one in the morning here, now, which is when I do most of my thinking. Married to an Entp, challenging but entertaining. Anyway, Hi.
