Do you answer your phone?
A lot of the time it rings and I don't hear it because I'm busy, away from the phone, playing music, I'm at work or school, etc.; and then I forget to call people back. But if I'm there and hear it ringing, and it's not my mother, I answer it because I like my rare moments of social interaction. That said I don't really like talking on the phone for long periods of time. I prefer face to face interaction. Holding the phone and trying to do things is awkward, and then there's that awkward time of wanting to hang up and not knowing if it's the right time. I particularly don't like talking to my mother on the phone because 1) she's loud and boring, 2) she asks me a bunch of silly questions I don't want to think about like what someone else is doing, 3) she's constantly giving me pushy unsolicited advice, 4) if something is going on she'll call me like 5 times in a day, and 5) she usually calls at inopportune moments such as I'm carrying something and about to unlock the front door, driving, in class, about to take a shower, thinking intensely about something, you get the idea.
And what type are you?
That's the question, isn't it? I think I'm INTP, but there are a lot of people who seem to think I'm an F. So INXP/INTX.
