'My not extremely fleshed out theory about the role technology plays for millennials is that it isn't ignored like it is by older generations, but it isn't considered an integral part of socialization...|||Lol two articles that essentially say the same thing from the same source.  I've always found the millennial reputation quite puzzling. In my experience, millennials tend to be better mannered,...|||At the very least, I consider '94 Gen Y. At my old job, I was smack in the middle of all my co-workers -- the managers were 28 and the part timers were 18. There was zero disconnect between me and...|||I should clarify that by abstract, I meant 5w4s tend to ruminate on, well, themselves. Think Dexter vs L. L also abstracts, but his abstractions are about the world around him. L asks, Who is Kira?...|||I think it's easy to misinterpret dependence on people. I don't spend my days suckling teets. It's more like my 5 fixations are oriented toward the real world whereas 4s are more... I wanna say...|||Don't use one trait of yours (regardless of strength) to define your whole personality. For starters, imo, people greatly overestimate many of their traits, not to mention the fact that it is an...|||None of this has to do with enneagram 3 though. 3 is more than just desiring a successful image. Some 3s don't even want that (not in the traditional sense).  Also I'd argue 2s -- especially...|||I agree with your 9 point. Not even the healthiest 9 ever would put herself out there the way Taylor does. Shawn Mendes is a good example. Actually, a HEALTHY example. His music is the center of his...|||She did cling to the I'm a good person reputation until she was painted into a corner. I think she genuinely believes the GP is out to get her lol.  But the reason I say 2>3 is she's way more...|||The video like two posts up is a very obvious depiction of disintegration to 8. She could not possibly be anything but 2w3. Perhaps the sterling example. Better Than Revenge is another good...|||First of all, it is not even up for debate that Lorde is 4 so/sp lmao I totally get why you find her relatable. In the enneagram sense, she's the realest.   Secondly, I agree that the music itself...|||Some great points being mentioned. Figure actually nailed an exact thought process I had a year ago (was it?) or whenever Halsey's album came out. Halsey was an artist I felt like I should at least...|||Dunno if I'd attribute it to feminism/liberalism primarily. I think the primary influences are 1) technology and 2) financial instability. This is a generation that has to worry about its own...|||I do agree that soc can be the most overtly obnoxious type in certain manifestations (ie Instagram celebrities), but I gotta say sp and sx can really grind the gears too lol. I had this sp/so...|||I meant I don't get why people like the album. It was rather boring to me.  Also, the point of my LOVELESS inspiration is that there's more of a focus on fulfilling basic needs than on finding...|||So I was listening to KIISFM while driving today in an effort to make sure I understood pop references at work and I was pondering why pop music post-2011ish doesn't whet my whistle anymore. Quality...|||The dark room could BE a stimulus in itself.  LOOK AT ME. IM THE PIT AND THE MOTHERFUCKING PENDULUM.  Or...  *Geoff Tate voice* Empty room today. Here I sit, chalk outline on the wall... I...|||Turi I'd like to put a disclaimer that the very way I approach and answer your questions will be Ne so I hope it in fact does answer your question.  Imo Ne mostly, mechanically speaking, operates...|||I think your instincts are right on the money. As SO-second, I sense group dynamics too but I don't experience them in a... committed fashion I guess? I guess the way to put it is I'm aware of group...|||Taking a moment to appreciate the coolest avatar in the thread.  Turi what's good my man.  This thread reminds me of the struggle it is to plow through introvert vs extrovert differences on the...|||Totally off topic: I fucking love Digimon. GOAT. Better character development than most adult TV shows. The newest game is extra as fuck though lmao.  On topic, this is the perfect example of...|||That's another thing -- making it about sex or my attitude toward sex (them not you). If I say no to a threesome, I'm either playing coy or I'm offended by the concept of threesomes. The easier...|||That's the thing. Men on this site and irl act like women don't generally receive unsolicited attention -- that we're pedaling a victim's narrative while simultaneously putting out signals. My SO...|||You are the Kwisatz Haderach.|||Nah, he's way too hung up on control and possession. Cool example of 5w4 sx/so imo.|||I suppose this is a question for me.  sx/so = being able to pose in social circles in order to get close to the object of my obsession. Constantly scrutinizing my own personality in relation to...|||Rock Songs: 1: Lost in the Flood by Bruce Springsteen Revolution Calling by Queensrÿche Jesus Christ Pose by Soundgarden 2: Catch the Rainbow by Rainbow Make Me Wanna Die by The Pretty Reckless...|||I really mean I literally say nothing to men at work nowadays. I don't talk to them full stop. I spiritually kill myself. Now granted this doesn't actually really work. Because I'm now keeping my...|||Ditto. I'm conventionally attractive with a bit of a fiery personality which means people wanna conquer me and move on. I remember back when I had this weird obsession with Tom Hanks, I watched his...|||I'm pretty sure I come across as some combination of 8-4-7 to people. Back when I was mistyping at 3, my ex was vehement I was an 8 and was utterly perplexed as to why I would type St anything else....|||I'm with you on loving those first 8 albums... well, all his albums but particularly those + The Rising and Magic. Definitely my most played by him not to mention his B-sides. It's outrageous how...|||FUCK YEAH. Born to Run is my favorite Bruce Springsteen album (top 3 album overall... sometimes #1). I actually had to consider posting Jungleland or Backstreets. Went with Jungleland because it's so...|||Allow me to give you still more to mull over. Se is about creating experience while Ni tends to use bits of experience as a vehicle for a greater message. Ni isn't as concerned about creating an...|||Because it isn't a good definition if it doesn't. The OP is literally asking for DIFFERENTIATION.    I'm arguing about cognition not behavior. Couldn't give two shits about behavior.    I get...|||Ideas, yes. Imagination, no. The problem is you cannot assign imagination to intuition without first tailoring imagination to fit intuition. Imagination in the realm of interpretation/perspective. As...|||If you want to experience dominant N, I would recommend watching Veronica Mars (Ne) and reading Ender's Game (Ni). Both stories are primarily told from the mind of an intuitive, so it gives you a...|||I don't think S vs N holds any real value. I find it easier to compare Ne to Se and Ni to Si. I think the types bear a closer resemblance and thus open the floor up to differentiation.  What makes...|||The head center struggles with gut more than heart as far as I know. That's why they mostly integrate to gut -- they're stuck in their own heads and need to become present and get in touch with...|||I don't disagree my friend is generally unhealthy (whenever I bring her up on here, Lord she doesn't get good reception). There's this flavor of Fi that I don't see as universal necessarily (and imo...|||I really hope the user comes back and assaults you with some of the greatest prog songs ever written.|||Just figured out a way to articulate Selena vs Taylor.  Has anyone had Del Taco's coffee in the last few years? A couple years ago, it was pretty fine coffee for $1. That's because it came straight...|||Haha! I'm not a Selena fan by any stretch of the imagination but her music definitely comes across more sincerely and less posed than Taylor's for me. Taylor's music feels prepackaged, like she has a...|||Yeah Selena the person could be sx-last. Just her music drips with sx. Funnily enough, I think Lana comes off as so to the naked eye in a similar respect. I remember reading a post once that analyzed...|||You know, funnily enough, I absolutely cannot see Selena as sx-last and I never even considered the possibility lol. I always saw Selena as one of the only overtly sx artists on Top 40 radio for the...|||I think her music kind of... is obviously 2ish... much more so than Selena Gomez's actually. And I think Selena Gomez's music has a strong sx element to it.  I do get the argument that Selena is a...|||I know. You are an ENFP after all. ;) But my post was something I'd been wanting to articulate for a while. The stereotype of ENFPs being like some kinda bunny rabbit really sells them short. ENFPs...|||Imo ENTPs are generally more tactful because of Fe. They're more aware of what would, well, embarrass most people and thus more sensitive to that.  As an example of what I mean by ENFP...|||ENFPs are really only assigned the charming moniker online. I think people just find them charming in theory and thus charming people are often typed as ENFx. I'm really only basing this supposition...|||Um... no. Cognitive functions don't impact likelihood of depression. They MIGHT impact how that depression is expressed and dealt with, but no. That's not how depression works.  Sincerely, An ENTP...|||My SO confessed that with me he has rebuilt his trust in another human and he sees me as a potential wife. He said he finally feels like he can be vulnerable in front of someone and can't stop...'
