Since noz was so nice at letting us all take stab at SJs, I figured I'd give the SJs (and the rest of us :D) a chance to annoy some NT's. So what are your fav strategies to drive an NT up the wall?

Personally, I love the emo-bomb, though I use it with care.

Other than that, getting them riled up about their new pet-theory and deliberately playing 'dumb' aka misunderstanding what they're saying completely works brilliantly as well.

And then there's the ever popular 'I know you're just bullshitting but I won't engage you and give you any ammo'-tactic which is lovely too.


NT's, be sure to thank Noz for this thread :D

- as does bringing in completely irrelevant topics and insisting on their logical and rational relevance. Be sure to use those words. OFTEN.

- also change your stance every so often and insist you've been on that side all along

- tell them that not following rules is a rule itself

- undermine independence, and reiterate their dependency to others. Bonus points if you can give examples

- tell them to stop being so 'emotional' in the middle of an argument.

- call Science a conspiracy

- ask them to explain their jokes...each and every time

- deliberately recall the past falsely, esp. with regards to relevant facts to a discussion

fine, i'll play:

"your numerator on that polynomial is off, and you did the derivation wrong"

"oh yeah, those guys/girls are totally into you! They said they wanted you to come talk to them"

"There is no definition for that word, so I do not acknowledge its existance. Please restate the sentence."


And the one way to get NTs to suicide en masse: "They're shutting down World of Warcraft!!"

There are few things that honestly get under my skin. But I don't tell other people these things.

Cry.

In the middle of an argument/debate. You'll automatically win.
