Logically, I don't see much of a reason for it, except that perhaps people get too emotionally distraught over our cold humor? Maybe we're a bit biting in our wit, but I don't think we deserve the reputation of being cold, hostile, completely emotionless, analytical, and evil. :(

Slightly cold, a bit maniacal, repressive, controlling, logical, maybe.

Thoughts?

cause intj are annoying, know- it -alls.
why is that you can't agree with the fact there are multiple right answers or right ways to approach a situations??? why??!!

The only way an INTJ will admit they are wrong is if you can prove that your thought process is more "logical" than theirs. But the INTJ always "believes" they are the most logical. Therefore they can never be wrong.

So the only answer is to over whelm them with emotional ranting. But then they see you as overly emotional and unfit to make logical decisions.

OMG INTJ drive me so crazy.

Because they're so cold. People like people who are warm, and INTJ's aren't. INTJ's are interesting though, but they have to avoid turning people off long enough for another to get to know them.

That's not true. INTPs are the most logical, and they piss me off with their incessant need to break down and explain everything.

Also, quit being such a crybaby, invaderzim.

We're not cold.

By the way, weren't you planning to kill yourself or something? What's the hold up?

I love INTJs. You guys have a sharp sense of humor. And you guys have a massive ego that rivals an ENTPs. It's endearing though. It's true though about never ever being able to admit that you are wrong... A very defensive lot, you are.

I actually think that INTPs are the most "cold" of us NTs, and definitely the most logical.

All that Fi you xNTJs carry make you bristle when challenged and super defensive, which is very emotional. And it's the kind of defensive that lashes out and tries to belittle the opponent, rather than debate the topic at hand.

(and digest is right. those are baby making condoms, if you ask me...)

Ahh, this is good to know. Next, time I'm trying to prove a point to my INTJ i'll use an INTP- interpreter.

Why? cuz INTJs are rude, boring, dissmissive and insensitive! They're like intuitng ISTPs but even worse because they actually have a large enough vocabulary to cut you down with.

the "tunnel vision" thing is lame, too. I could go on but you get it !

I don't dislike INTJs. I don't understand them very well, but I don't dislike them, not as a group anyway.

What in the world makes you believe that INTPs can interpret your NF jibber-jabber?
