'I think that'll probably be my next big aim - earn enough so that I can quit, recalibrate and travel for a good half a year or more. 100% planning to do that at some point.   Currently in the...|||I think it was partly due to the fact that I started the studenting aged 24, and am now recently 29. Us INTPs like to be social non-conformists, but I must be honest it did feel a bit shit being a...|||I'm going to do some pathetic one-upmanship now, because I'm pathetic.  On Friday I went to my friend's wedding. Took a 3 hour bus to get to the next city, arrived at 1030pm, then he said me and my...|||I finally finished being a university studenty person.  Well I finished at the end of May this year, but since I decided to not continue with my master's year of study, I was told I had to do some...|||Honestly not sure, maybe ESTP.|||I think what you really mean is you don't want a customer service style job where you have to put on a fake persona.  As long as you can be yourself, it doesn't really matter if you have to deal...|||I got 6000 upvotes on Quora last week. Heh! Though I ought to admit it was sort of pot luck. Quora's algorithm for finding good posts to put in peoples' Read/Digest feeds has strange criteria, I...|||Some seriously daft responses here.  Helium, deadly, dangerous, 'for the effects', etc. Helium?!?!  How sheltered were your lives as you grew up?! Using helium to make your voice go funny is a...|||Oh aye Iceland is alright. I don't go there much though.|||I'd win another gunboat war against Norway though. Send all you Nordy Nords back to Hell. Stop being so Nordy! And why are you siding with the yanks, you anti-European traitor! Oh wait, your nation...|||You're American.|||You culture appropriating bastard.  Next time you use those words, I'm pulling down a statue.|||Yes, and I hereby by declare everything to be bollocks and arse.  http://www.katyjon.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Rik-Mayall-Rick-in-The-Young-Ones-428x372.png|||American humour has no depth.|||You appear to be ignoring or simply not understanding every last bit of helpful and reassuring information given to you in this discussion.    I think there's no hope. Hysterical buzzwords and...|||Only showing your own deficiencies there I'm afraid.    Get fucked, pika-duck :happy:|||^^^  Haha but you still take the time to post a reply to the thread. What a boring life you must lead, you daft cunt.|||Guess what they sell at Burger King in China.  Just guess.  QUAD STACK HAMBURGERS.|||Cardcastle your insults are all fucking terrible. Not even joking. What a boring shade of grey.|||Honestly I think you need to see a psychiatrist.  Your paranoia levels are off the scale.  It's a radio. We all use them, everywhere, every day. Nobody has started to melt into the floor or...|||Another thing I've just remembered is that the human body regulates its respiration via CO2 levels.  For example, people who hyperventilate before doing a long swim underwater risk death because...|||To be honest I don't think calculations are necessary or even possible. It's not like anyone has stated the volume or pressure of the canister, so the only thing you can do is build a theoretical...|||So my flatmate just got a HUGE bag of M&Ms out of the fridge. Largest I've seen in my life.   We then ate a lot of them.  15 minutes or so later, I felt a weird woozy sensation, leaving me almost...|||Yeah I've been in love three times.  The best time was the first time because it was totally mutual.  The second time was a little one-sided but the girl (ENFP) was a bit flaky with the love...|||Terence McKenna. This guy?    Cool so an uneducated hippy took some drugs, said a few out there things and ended up with a large cult following.  Nothing wrong with being a hippy, in fact...|||That's exactly what physics teaches. You learn to see the world from a logical perspective and can build mathematical models of things with your eyes closed.    I studied none of those things in...|||I knew there'd be some lardy darr city folk element watering it down somewhere.  :wink:|||Here's how I see it: INTPs tend to complete and achieve things in sudden bursts. You may think of the Appalachian trail as a long, drawn out thing which you might quit, but really it isn't at all....|||Quite interesting. What I'd like to know is if those peaks (or some of them) are followed by a fall in ability after reaching their peak, or does the peak stay as a plateau for a while.|||You are literally engulfed by radiation every day.  I bet your house has wi-fi. Watch out, i's gonna getcha!|||Ah yeah, QED, that's the one. I knew there was something else relating electromag and QM but I couldn't remember. It's a very advanced topic though so if don't be surprised if your whole degree...|||You should learn most of electromag in 1st year or maybe 2nd year. After that there's not actually a huge amount of extra special stuff to be learned, apart from some magnet-related things in...|||Yeah for sure, and yeah definitely the sound would barely last more than a second, if that. The pressure variations could surely still register on a device very nearby though.  Awesome that you're...|||Did you read the article?    So as the article says, sounds can travel in space, haha.  It just needs a medium, and air particles would provide that medium as long as you did it in close enough...|||Lots of things are human inventions. Bananas, carrots and seedless watermelons spring to mind.  Not sure if it's been shown already as I'm too lazy to read the whole thread but here's an...|||A couple of things.  Firstly, I looked at a few pictures and videos on my computer today, of my life and times when I was a bit younger. It suddenly occurred to me that most of the stuff I was...|||Humble brag, I don't care. Found this picture yesterday. Look at the awesome place I work at:  http://himg2.huanqiu.com/attachment2010/2017/0219/20170219060733981.jpg  Chengdu Software Park, the...|||Not sure how others feel but I give zero fucks about who joins in at the INTP subforum.  It would obviously be a bit silly to chime in on topics where people want an INTP viewpoint, but generally...|||Not at all bothered by it.   I think it's a bit of a problem for some NTs to try to 'be logical' just because their personality type dictates it.  Tell me your favourite food. Now tell me why you...|||Can't say for sure as I just saw an article about it. However, the company who set up the bike scheme in Manchester is exactly the same Chinese company who operate with millions of bikes here in...|||I cycle to work every day on a shared bike, of which there are quite literally millions in China. This city alone must have a good 500'000. It's a great system - the bikes have wheel locks in the...|||Sounds like you're trying to justify a bad thing to yourself.  When you want to do something and then you do it - this isn't even okay for 'nice' things, e.g. the seven deadly sins include...|||What makes you say you know that?  I'm pretty sure the reverse is true. Time dilation at relativistic speeds means time slows down for you. When you return to normal (or zero) velocity, everything...|||Started the new job yesterday. Definitely an internship rather than a 'real job', but I'm not fussed since there was never a timespan given to me so I'll likely carry on tinkering around and learning...|||Awesome, it loaded.  This website, I mean. Hasn't been accessible from China for a while.  Yesterday I passed an interview entirely in Chinese and got a job as a web developer intern for a...|||Didn't win any of my bets, but this has been ssuuuuuuch a great result!  When the election was called, the Tory party already had a strong majority and Labour were at their lowest ever, roundly...|||Voted in the general election.  Also placed a £10 bet on Labour gaining an overall majority, and a £10 on Jeremy Corbyn being the next prime minister. The former pays out £300, the latter £70. ...|||Yeah the menu appears. I learned the next part the hard way. All tabs lost, ha.|||Not sure if it's just my computer or what but if I click the very top left corner of Chrome twice it closes.  New annoying accidental discovery for the day.|||UK general election in T-minus 6 days.  The goliath strength of our right wing, media-backed cunt base of a government has come crashing down in a matter of weeks. Oh how the mighty do fall. ...'
