If you are scarred for life by the Severed Mouth Woman video from the previous post, then it has served it’s purpose. NAH, not really, I want it to serve as an reminder to this blog, actually I just came up with that. Okay, so the previous post was about INTP, now more about it. I found search engine traffic with the term INTP coming into this blog, hence I went to reverse search which lead me to wikipedia. Here goes with copy and paste while bold-ing what I find interesting.
From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INTP
INTP types are quiet, thoughtful, analytical individuals who don’t mind spending long periods of time on their own, working through problems and forming solutions. They are very curious about systems and how things work, and are frequently found in careers such as science, architecture and law. INTPs tend to be less at ease in social situations and the ‘caring professions’, although they enjoy the company of those who share their interests. They also tend to be impatient with the bureaucracy, rigid hierarchies, and politics prevalent in many professions, preferring to work informally with others as equals.
INTPs organize their understanding of any topic by articulating principles, and they are especially drawn to theoretical constructs. Having articulated these principles for themselves, they can demonstrate remarkable skill in explaining complex ideas to others in simple terms, especially in writing. On the other hand, their ability to grasp complexity may also lead them to provide overly detailed explanations of “simple” ideas, and listeners may judge that the INTP makes things more difficult than they are. This to the INTP, however, is incomprehensible: they are merely presenting all of the information.
INTPs’ extroverted intuition gives them a quick wit, especially with language, and they can defuse the tension in gatherings by comical observations and references. They can be charming, even in their quiet reserve, and are often astounded by the high esteem in which their friends and colleagues hold them.
An insulted INTP, however, has a tendency to unveil their full mastery of logical intuition. Many previously secure, confident people have been left crushed by an INTP’s sudden and piercingly accurate criticism. After such an incident, the INTP is as likely to be as devastated as the recipient; they have broken the rules of debate and exposed their irrational emotions. This to an INTP is the crux of the problem: emotions are to be dealt with in a logical manner, as improperly handled they can only harm.

An INTP is not shy about using a tool for something other than its original purpose, or creating a new tool to serve a desired purpose. INTPs cause no end of frustration to ISTPs, ESTPs, ESTJs and ISTJs with this improvisation, as despite their best effort they cannot make the same intuitive leaps which come naturally to the INTP. On the other hand, they are quick to smugly point out when the INTP must stop in the middle of a project to puzzle over the previously discarded instructions, which the -ST- read at the start.
The INTP, however, adapts well to the rules-oriented world of introverted Sensing, preferring to experience the world through a cautious and reserved manner, while the ISTP is quite extroverted in their experiences in the world. Nor does either type have patience with the introverted iNtuitive world of inner vision. They prefer to stick to the straightforward articulation of their principles.
From Master, thats me, for some reason:
Woohoo! Some of it might sound familiar to some of you. I am a tool creator, tool creatorz and I have many tools and you are one of them! Sorry to the ISTPs, ESTPs, ESTJs and ISTJs that I might meet in the future. No, actually I am not sorry. I am too dangerous, like I pasted previously, being an Assassin is a favored career to the INTP. I am so gonna go around assassinating people. Oh? That is not how the assassin works? Gah, didn’t you read that I am not shy about using a tool for something than its original purpose? Hey, don’t go around double guessing my logic you none-INTP. I am the logical one here. No, you are not funny.
“INTP types are quiet, thoughtful” - Yea, most of the time too thoughtful, except just now.
From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architect_%28Role_Variant%29
Architects are introspective, pragmatic, informative, and attentive. The scientific systemization of all knowledge, or Architectonics, is highly developed in Architects, who are intensely curious and see the world as something to be understood. Their primary interest is to determine how things are structured, built, or configured. Architects are designers of theoretical systems and new technologies. Rearranging the environment to fit their design is a distant goal of Architects.
Of all the role variants, Architects are the most logically and verbally precise. In casual conversations, they may be tempted to point out errors the other speaker makes, with the simple goal of maintaining clarity within the exchange. In serious discussions, Architects’ abilities to detect distinctions, inconsistencies, contradictions, and frame arguments gives them an enormous advantage. In debates, Architects can sometimes be devastating, or alienate themselves from the group with overly logical arguments.
Of all the role variants, Architects have the greatest ability to analyze the world in depth. They prefer to quietly work alone and they may shut other people out if they are focused on analysis. This, coupled with the fact that Architects are usually shy, makes it difficult for other individuals to get to know them. In social exchanges, Architects are more interested in informing others about what they have learned than they are interested in directing the actions of others.
Credentials or other forms of traditional authority do not impress Architects. Instead, logically coherent statements are the only things that seem to persuade them. Architects highly value intelligence, and can be impatient with people with less ability than they have. Architects often perceive themselves as being one of the few individuals capable of defining the ends a society must achieve and will often strive to find the most efficient means to accomplish their ends. This perspective can make Architects seem arrogant to others.
From me:
Truth! Persuade me with something logical. Everyone else can get certificates, but little can make out that one plus one equal two or say something logical. Gibberish stuff. Sometimes it makes me want to destroy the academic system.
Traditions no more
Another thing, traditions. I see them being imposed on people. Why the need to preserve a tradition? If there is no more interest in people to continue chopping wood with stone axes or singing songs for the spirits then it is time to move on. The Chinese believe that Chinese must follow Chinese traditions is total bullshit to me.
An individual should be free to do and be what he chooses. Tradition only serve to drag the individual down when it serves no purpose to him other than being a rule follower in the mind of other rule followers. If you do not follow the rule of forcing other people to follow the rules then you are not a rule follower then you shall be outcast. Hmm… sounds familiar in some cultures. INFIDEL! Although it might have got to do with evolutionary psychology/sociology, some “Chinese must be Chinese” rule or some crazy cross border nationalism caused by powerful Chinese propaganda to the Chinese people, to me as an logical individual, this is all worthless if it only serves to make some people “happy”.
My self identity is not of being a Chinese because I am born one, it is of being a intelligent species that is greater than the other animate objects, so patriotism and nationalism can be reserved for popcorn sessions, and when there is alien contact, we learn from them. Throw away all the old ways when there are new and better ways. Dump the stone axes when we have bronze. That is logical. Being stuck in an age before threatens your competence, it has caused the downfall of many if you remember. Go global or perish when the world comes at you.
It is after all what I want to be, not what or who I should be. Freedom rules.
Master of the world. Master the world. Here we go!
P.S. I like watching the history channel. Hope to see you on there soon, if you know what I mean.
