-you actually correct the teacher...... every day.
-you go to the library with your class, and get so into reading you dont notice they left an hour ago.

And finaly!
-You meet the only other person in your highschool who is intelligent, is an internet veteran such as yourself, and can actually relate with you (he was an ENTP). You start having a conversation and try to outdo eachother about the most terrible, disgusting, vial things you've each seen on the internet. You get so into the conversation that you dont realize you're saying all this in the middle of class.... and the last thing you said was horse pron (only seen it once, it scared me)....... and you might have said it WAY to loud........ and everyone is looking at you :phear:

That's right, my very first post was a story involving horse f:eek:ing. i can only go uphill from here!

I don't think it is a prerequisite to being INTP that we all have to fill our heads with useless filth. I don't use any pornography AT ALL, and I function perfectly.

I don't think Vash was suggesting it was! The point was about losing yourself in conversations at inappropriate moments, not the content of the conversation. Methinks your morality is clouding your Ti!!

My morality is based on my Ti (and my biology). Take that.

Haha, I like you

You have a book containing thousands of passwords and use a different one for each site that you visit. You also change your passwords every 3 months, and they are over 30 characters long.

-You once tried having many multiple passwords with random capitalizations, random numbers, and lots of characters, but you were too lazy to write them down and quickly forgot them. When you finally got around to signing back in, you couldn't remember your password, the email associated with the account, or any other data needed to reset the password.

-You have one password you have used for everything since you were twelve, and it came from a video game, because you're lazy and you know you'd forget anything else.

-You get frustrated when a website won't let you use your usual password because it's too short or has no non-numerical characters, so you repeat the last number a couple more times and/or add your initials to the beginning -- and then you forget which version of your password you used for which site.

When you feel bad every time you look at your dirty computer screen but lack the motivation to do anything about it.

(I hope this isn't just me.)

- When the only highlight of your last family gathering was when the conversation turned to the lottery, and you whipped out your calculator and estimated the odds of winning various prizes.

- When you spent big parts of said gathering hiding with an exciting book.
- When the only reason why you didn't read through the entire gathering was that someone hinted that it was potentially offensive at the last one.

Six stories up.
I spent this weekends entire family gathering out riding horses with my step-second-cousin (or some other meaningless relationship). I don't think I said a word to 90% of the people there. I used to read at them, but my grandmother got really mad one time, and she's a mean woman.

- You prefer sitting in the back of the classroom, so that it's easier to get away with not paying attention to a worthless lesson by daydreaming or reading.

- You are irritated when people decide to walk too slowly in front of you and you can't get around them without having to force your way through, but you don't want to force your way through at the same time.

- In the above situation, you're not in a hurry, you just hate having to go at someone else's pace.

- You've occupied yourself in your own thoughts so much while showering, you realize that you've taken about 5 minutes too long and quickly get out, only to realize as you're walking out the door that you never washed your hair. (I've done this at least 4 times in the past year)

- You've spent upwards of 2 minutes looking for something that you've forgotten that you're holding in your hand.

- You avoid all but basic formalities and social nicities because they're irrelevant and meaningless, and even ask that other people do not direct them towards you.

- You avoid looking at people and attempt to look absorbed by thought to get people not to talk to you.

- Your memory for random/interesting trivia and informaton is vast and powerful, but your memory for important tasks seems frustratingly short to others.

- You certainly intend to start that important task...just not now.

- When you get lost in thought while already lost in thought, realize it, and then attempt to pick up on the last mental tangent, taking minutes at a time just trying to remember what you were thinking about before.

A perfect match. Perhaps I'm an odd INTJ in that I fit the ones above as well.

And welcome to the forum.

It's finally happened, we've converted an INTJ.

Welcome to the INTP family Kia, we've been waiting for you.

Pfft. Nevah! *holds on tightly to her INTJ card*

I have plenty in common with you guys, but I am not one of you. I love INTPs though. I love you guys, but have absolutely NO desire to be one of you.

Now now Kia, there's no point in fighting... Cog, do you want to do the honours?

Saffy! You don't know what you're dealing with! That card can only be destroyed by a severe act of anti-INTJness, it cannot be destroyed by conventional means.

On another note, where'd you get the freeze ray? I've been working on mine based on a twelve week plan, but I'm not done yet.

A severe act of anti-INTJness, eh?

Right, I'll need two bi chicks (prone to jealousy) who love each other very much to assist me with an interpretative dance style deconstruction of the complete works of Monty python's flying circus, and a purple catfish in dire need of being confused.

Emotional drama + Illogic + Interpretative dance = One broken INTJ membership card.

The freeze ray? Oh... I know a guy... Not the one that told me how to make a petrol bomb....a different guy. I could get you one, for the right price of course....

*coughs* anyway, I'm sure Cog has the card destruction coming along nicely, and of course I have no clue what I'm dealing with. That'd require knowing what I was doing in the first place.

Well we have just finished our interpretative deconstruction of the fish slapping dance and the bi girls are having a very emotional argument... at least I think it's an argument.
I may have to intervene, oh and the catfish is watching us with an absolutely appalled expression on its purple fishy fish-eyed face, perhaps it was the wrong choice of sketch.

The INTJ card is screaming in a silent, inanimate sort of way.

-When you read the entire 40-page thread in one sitting o_O

-When you had something to say on page 2 but had to hold it in while you furiously finished reading the WHOLE THING.

-When you leave all the cupboard doors and drawers open and infuriate the other people in your house.

-When you use objects for other purposes than what they were designed for (ie eating cereal out of a cup instead of a bowl)

-When your mother took you to a psychiatrist at a young age because you couldn't find things two inches in front of your face, you were too busy thinking to pay attention to what she was saying, and you zoned a lot. And they diagnosed you with mild ADD XD

When you copy and paste all of the foregoing quotes that apply to you into a word document and then realize you're the only person who would be interested enough to read it.

Yeah, I did that...

does anyone else have those uncomfortable moments of amplified paranoia you get when you're walking down the street, and you suddenly realise there may be a tag sticking up at the back of your neck, so you surreptitiously reach your hand to the back of your neck to check, all the while casually pretending that you're really scratching yourself?
no..? sorry, carry on.

- When the tag generally is sticking out.
- When this is because you put your sweater on inside-out.
- When you did this on purpose and with the sole intent of annoying people and pretending not to see what's wrong when they tell you.
