Not Applicable.|||I used to strategize my future decades in advance. Now I can hardly plan a week. And I glow; I'm one of the happiest people I know. I wish that I could easily provide a pathway. Unfortunately, the...|||Cul-de-sac: You should elaborate upon this with the creation of a thread.  Making society unravel is a pretty intense conclusion. I'd love to see examples.|||And my amazing weakness is my poor portrayal of something that could be astonishing. Of course it's individual. And of course I have my flaws. One not need to hover over or embrace them in any...|||The beauty is when one ceases to think of relativity and definition . . . and other things.  Don't think too much. Break your mind. You INTPs are hot when you don't have to pause to analyze...|||It wasn't until I was 30 when I finally realized that logic is a perspective of definition -- or ought I name it a product (?) -- and it had imprisoned my mind since birth. To those who will be...|||Most of what I own is functional. However, I do like to collect ancient currency. There's something about holding something, say, 2,500 years old that's cool. It's very expensive though, and also...|||There isn't too much that's special about how I write, except:  1. I write a hell of a lot better than I speak. Seeing what I write as I write it improves my discourse.  2. I'm prone to leaving...|||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VppuD1St8Ec|||Music from the 90s.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me-lqQaOpk8|||I've never experienced a breakup that wasn't mutual, and they've usually moved out of my system in a few months, but I have experienced pretty sudden, horrific ends (e.g. raped with a knife by ex-bf...|||20. I disagreed with a lot of the questions. Several had a theme which I believe opposite: I appreciate chaos, stress, and a lot going on at once (almost like immersion learning a language), but I do...|||By myself? Probably a few months comfortably. With one other person that I get along with? A lifetime.|||I just want to make a quick post concerning those who identify as INTJs, using some MBTI lingo, and why I said report him throughout my posts: INTJs are driven to rationally resolve problems with...|||I'm not rare. I'll write a book or dozen someday, and some family will say they want the profits for what their relative wrote. And I'll say fuck you, like a boss.  If I surprise myself, it'll be...|||Give him some Taylor Swift too. Everyone suffers.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLf9q36UsBk|||Each INTJ may be different. This is no simple translation, but within a decade of change: I systematically destroyed my mind until I lost my feelings for humanity, and death, fell into several phases...|||Unfortunately, I did not feel that way when in that state of mind. I actually interpreted it as offensive when a psychiatrist told me that other's feelings should be included with mine. Granted, I...|||If it becomes dangerously concerning, report him. One of my INTP friends did the same to me, and 2 weeks in a psych ward helped a lot. I had also approached the homicidal.

She was married, very hardworking, loyal to her job, traditional, practical -- taught me a lot about priorities and living in the hear / now,...|||I don't often have the opportunity to play video games anymore, but here are some of my long-term favorites throughout life that I've replayed several times:  Final Fantasy Final Fantasy III (VI)...|||I'm happy living life with several strong schisms, and all of them are constantly evolving. Multiple situational perspectives are far more interesting than the same boring one I'd always regurgitated...|||A bottle of Ensure, a pound of cheddar cheese, 2 multi-grain bagels with light canola butter, a can of sardines in olive oil, a can of spinach, a Cliff bar with seeds, 4 bottles of Guinness, and...|||I used to in my 20s. I've shed more and more as I've gone. I gave most of my things away during my last move. Now, pretty much all of what I own can fit into a 10'x10' bedroom, including desk, two...|||Scientifically speaking? It can range from a flat out no, to not measurable, to unknown. Since science is a field of definition, I recommend not seeking your answer there. After all, should not...|||I don't think NFs or NTs are insane as pertaining to some layman's definition towards their psychology. I think NFs and NTs can be prone to destructive introspection though, especially the...|||Getting to stay in bed all day. But now my back has an ache. 20 hours was probably overdoing it.  Back to work tomorrow. Yay.|||What is the meaning of life?  I've found my mind so psychologically destroyed on multiple occasions that I can't even fathom the question anymore.

Memorizing? Sure, that's a challenge for most. I think it was portraying convincing emotions and...|||I have conformed all of my happiness and sorrows into beauty already. Regardless to the state of the situation, even in vast suffering, I see beauty in it--even my own death. This naturally leads to...|||What's the difference between a logical argument and an opinion?  Truth tables? Some other formulaic rule set? Or just that you thought it was an opinion?  That seems to reinforce the original...|||I read a curious post, in my perusing, inspired by post-work unwinding perhaps. Yes, my idea of relaxing is reading the debate forums, and wondering what the fuck people are thinking.  Cited from...|||Consider it the only source of documented, researched works, and expressions of creativity. There are no reproductions. For instance, all poets and philosophers would have their works entirely lost,...|||POLL QUESTION  (Pretend) There is only one library on the planet. You are a scholar, serving and studying its many tomes. By whatever consequence, the structure has caught on fire, and the fire...|||When the day comes that such a pervasive system is viable, I'll tip my hat.  Otherwise, Russia Today ruined 1984 a for me. Everything is Orwellian, calling the kettle black.|||I tend to hold glances (around 2 seconds) with almost everyone I meet, a bit longer than socially normal. Men tend to look away after a second or so, after which I do too. This prompts a verbal...|||But I've met INFPs, INFJs, INTPs, ENTJs, ENTPs, ISFJs, . . . that also do this.  Hmm.
