Default Days later.. Hi!

I generally don't do these introduction threads, but more and more people keep telling me I need to "step outside of my safe zone" so I'll give it a shot.

Ennegram wise while I have a strong 4w5 side to me. I tend to be primarily 7. I can swap between sx/sp and sp/sx depending on the situation was well.

I'm probably not the typical INFP in terms of interests. I'm not a major fan of Art/English etc. I'm more of a science/technology kinda guy.

Growing up I was very Calvin & Hobbes-ish. Tho there wasn't a Susie. It was just me and my dog out in the creeks/fields/parks from sun up to sundown. Don't think I really had any type of "friendship" with anyone until high school.

When it comes to music I can't say that I have any favorite artists, or a favorite genre of music. I tend to gravitate to music more on an emotional level. I listen to songs for the words, and tend to change what I'm listening to based on whats going on with my life. In a way I used them to express how I'm feeling at the moment. It's not uncommon for me to switch from Rock to Techno to Alternative to Country music.

I spend a lot of time reading when I get in the mood. Usually it's either tech news, sci-fi/cyberpunk or fantasy.

I tend to go against the grain when it comes to fads. I don't have an iPod, I have a Creative Zen, I don't own an iPhone, I have an LG Prada.

Humor wise I can be sarcastic/sadistic at times.

I love snow, I hate winter.. Snow is fun to drive in, the cold I can do without.

I'm a car nut, especially anything GM. Mainly for their nickname as "Generic Motors". I love finding new uses for things, so a company that as a rule uses the same parts across 10 different cars draws me to them as I can get creative and add Camero parts to my Grand Prix etc. Plus messin with them is dirt cheap.

When it comes to religions I have no use for them. While I agree that things like the bible can be a good thing morally, I don't agree with the idea of people basing their lives and their views on whats written in them word for word. There is such a thing as taking religion to far in my eyes, generally I don't care what your religion is, as long as you don't try and force it on me.

Which I guess brings me to my political views. Generally I'm very Liberal, however on certain subjects I can be extremely Right Wing. I'm jaded with the world at large due to the ever increasing "Nanny State" attitude. With any luck my future kid(s) won't turn out like me, otherwise they're gonna end up with quite the criminal record, as I dislike being told I can or can't do something because I may get hurt. I'm aware of the risks, I've accepted them, go away and leave me alone.

I guess to stop this from being a biography sized novel, I'll leave the rest for people to find out through posts etc.

Hello Ender!

Calvin and Hobbes *yay*. Do you identify more with Calvin or Hobbes, and what type do you think they each are?

Calvin has been generally excepted as INFP.

As for Hobbes.. While you could probably type Hobbes.. The only thing you'd be doing really is identifying Calvin's secondary type since he's nothing more then a projected personality of Calvin's right?

No clue, don't know enough about other types to say.

Edit: I was just linked to an article that compares Calvin & Hobbes to Fight Club.

Metaphilm - Fight Club

No, I'm quite the opposite of that. I always preferred to spend my money on performance, rather then looks when it came to my car.

Welcome to you Ender! Calvin and Hobbes.

Yes, you have a very long intro... but that's alright... it wouldn't be counted against you. Kidding XP
