When I first came here, INTPs were my least favorite type,
but some of them have won me over and now I can enjoy them and appreciate them.
I don't have anything specific to cite, just a general appreciation.

Why didn't you like us in the first place? ='(

Really, I'd never thought INTPs would be one of the least likeable types.

Anyone can be cruel. I don't think INTPs have the monopoly. They are seldom cruel intentionally - more often thoughtless . . . or feelingless, more accurately.

I'm only ever cruel to people who deserve it. They really have to earn it. It's usually because they are cruel to me or other people. Then they will see how I redefine cruel.

I think sometimes I hurt people though silence. In a sense I think I am a closet extravert. I have on occasion opened the door.

I can totally see how they might be puzzling to/misunderstood by others, esp. Feelers.
I understand them and I don't like that many.

If they deserve it then it isn't cruelty, IMO, merely retribution.

I don't think it's any secret that I loves the INTPs.

They can be remarkably cruel. If that's braggable, I'll enter it here.
Oh, thank you!

INTPs - low maintenance, hard to offend, bright, irreverent, insightful, self-contained, original thinkers.

There are plenty to go around. Many aren't even picky!

It's selective! Cruelty for 10%, love for 10%, and "don't care" for the rest.

Look, lady, you've already landed in my "vainly wishes she was a dude so Pink could date her fine self" pile, K?! K?!

I'm only ever cruel to people who deserve it.

Pardon? Because *you* think they deserve it? Who died and left you Pope?

They really have to earn it. It's usually because they are cruel to me or other people.

How do you EARN cruelty? Barbarism on any level isn't earned. Taking action against someone who's showing such barbarism isn't cruelty - it's righting the ship.

Jeepers! I'm on Pink's "vainly wishes she was a dude list"? :blush: :wubbie:

Psst. Can you get Jack on there too? As a personal favour? He's almost as manly as me, honest. And a lot more desperate.

Gee. I dunno, Blue. I'd have to move some ladies around, and I'm simply not comfortable with it. Aelan, Tallulah, Trinity, Delilah et al have been in the "not a dude but I love her anyway" queue. I can't just chuck the order because you feel sorry for Mr. Flak. I mean, we all feel pity for him, I'm sure, but what can I do? My hands are tied.

I think I'll just make this thread my blog.

So last night, a sexy stripper sits in my lap, and I gave her a half-hour full body massage (excluding the genitals, that's semi-against the rules). She appreciated being "In heaven" and that I "made her a new woman." I'm not sure if more people were staring at us or my best friend when he pulled down a girl's g-string and gave her a spanking. Neither of them was INTP though.

Jack now you're stealing my dreams!!

That's very UN INTP like, I thought they were supposed to be original thinkers.

What's the point of anything? We're just waiting for death if we don't make a day of it once in a while.

It was pretty original. How often do you see someone giving a bikini-girl a massage in the middle of a bar?

It worked too well! I don't see what's so tasteless about a massage. It's muscular therapy.
