If you don't want to associate your post directly to MBTI typology, but wish to discuss it seperately, just ignore this post.

It seems that you're adressing one of the differences in the method of which TiNe and TeNi processes information. INTP's and INTJ's. INTP's are artistic thinkers, INTJ's are technical thinkers. Based on that, I fit into the poll as an artistic thinker.

But I too can be very fact driven, cold and dry if the situation requires me to be. I won't be TeNi suddenly or INTJ, that'd be impossible. I just mold my TiNe in a certain way to resemble it. That in itself is an artistic trait INTP's share. But can it be seen as artistic thinking from in your posts context, or would you look past my reasons for the way I act and call me a technical thinker, in the situation I appear to be thinking technically.

I suppose what I'm saying is: Are you only interested in the appearance of peoples thought processes? Or the reasons why, and what steps people go through, to think as they do?

If an ENTJ could think technical, it would make my job much more easier :)

Sorry, Blank. But some of the people on this forum are complete brain-dead moronic fuckheads. So I'm no longer interested in any of these posts, or this website in general, and if it were possible, I would have deleted them all.

There's too many baseless assumptions around here. So have fun jerking each other off.

And who are the "brain-dead moronic fuckheads" you are referring to?

Uh oh, I think someone pissed in his cheerios.

I'm about even between the two. It depends on my mood. I prefer an artistic and holistic, but unavoidably I find myself needing to break into the technical mumbo jumbo to keep things running smoothly

I voted almost completely technical. According to fluffywolf, INTPs are supposedly artistic thinkers and INTJs are technical thinkers. Maybe my idea of technical and artistic is different from his.

Obviously, what can be considered artistic is highly subjective. But hmm. I think INTP's, in the context of how you answer this topic. I would say we are artistic technical thinkers.

The artistic part is how we can use Ne to link together and jump from arguement to arguement almost seemlessly and randomly to build a construction of little facts creating a solid conclusion. Artistically technical!

Whilest INTJ's start at one point and work their way from their in a very technical fashion in order to come up with a solid conclusion. Technically technical!

Maybe that makes more sense, or at least shows what part of INTP thinking style I find artistic.
