5 problems any intp may or may not have

[neodarkstar]

this thread got me thinking intps seem to have odd problems
so i thought up a list of 5 problem any intp may or may not have

1. the don't mess with me aura
2. the stealth aura(ie: you walk up to someone say hi and they proceed to be shipped to the er with a heart attack)
3. the mess with me aura
4. the inability to tell a joke(ie: someone say oh great now the servers gonna crash and you first reaction is *sigh* okay whats the error code)
5.morbidity(ie: someones talkin bout food bein made from a cow and you start blurting out the butchering process in detail to explain how its safe and not disgusting)

1. A few people have told me I have this, though I think it's only when I'm in a brooding mood
2. Seems to happen often.
3. Yes, I can appreciate blunt humour and I generally crack up laughing when people insult me. Unless you mean in terms of literal violence, I've been in a few, 'altercations'.
4. Occasionally. Sometimes I completely miss a joke because I start analysing it and then end up responding with some left-field in-depth analysis.
5. Yes. I usually do it with germs when people are anal retentive about them. When I start to tell certain people about germs, they kind of look at me with a mix of mild fascination and disgust. I also can discuss pretty much anything while eating, it makes no difference to me - so I sometimes forget that other people aren't the same.

1. i once did a perfect death glare and all i did was instinctively mirror
2. i know mee too >.<
3. i meant humor wise the thing where everybody plays practical jokes on you just for the classic reaction
4. same here
5. same here though with me i can almost never tell a joke from a ... non-joke

1. Check.
2. Check.
3. Check.
4. I've been told I'm funny, but the people who tell me that just don't realize that I'm serious. I usually can tell if a person is joking, but I just don't know how to respond, so I just stare at them until they sigh, and say that they were kidding.
5. Check. Sometimes purposely to freak the other person out.

1. I had several people asking me to stop staring at them including teachers in school. Mostly when I was bored, tired or mad. Also I was the one that provided answers rather than entertainment.
2. Yes there is something in this.
3. I tend to dismiss attempts with laughter or yawning. In more serious straits I was dangerous enough to shake off.
4. Yes, over-analysing and philosophy often replace humour.
5. I don't shy away from facts, processes, truths behind and other stuff that can come in a discussion.

Morbidity is one of the most charming traits I know of :O

I mean morbid people are just living in the real world, so when they are funny, happy, clever etc it counts for so much more. Plus strange disgusting diseases and ailments are da bess.

I don't see these traits as problems. Also, I don't identify with fourth, I think my brain is actively scanning for anything humorous and quite often I see hilarity where others don't. I also think dark humour is the best kind as long as it is not directly/not meant to be hurting anyone. For example, I can't explain a joke that had me in fits and tears about how some people are so awesome (awe inspiring) to themselves, that they become tetraplegic.

And morbidity is definitely not a problem. I think most of us are emphatic enough to know why some images/ideas make people nauseated, but we are able to separate our thoughts and instincts (pretty sure I am expressing this wrong, but you will get it). If I didn't have this trait it would have taken me much longer to try out and gorge myself in foods that are by some considered disgusting.

Give or take. I try not to be too dark on the forum however. I don't know why.

I'd like to add one: 6.) apathy.
