I wanted to post a picture of the Sahara and say you were asking for sand, but then I immediately realized that analogy didn't work out, because this was a mixed forum and there are plenty of other types as well. Then I thought, hey, a desert doesn´t have to consist of sand, that´s just one type..most deserts aren't composed of sand. This led me to some wikipedia research into desert types.

There are five types of deserts:
* Mountain and basin deserts
* Hamada deserts, which consist of plateau landforms
* Regs, which consist of rock pavements
* Ergs, which are formed by sand seas
* Intermontane Basins

So I gave up on that analogy, since they all seemed too uniform to fit. So I thought about better examples of environments filled with x but not only x that could be represented on a nice picture. Fish in the sea? nah, not really. More like squirrels in the park. Not good enough either. etc etc etc.

Then I remembered that I just wanted to welcome you to the forum and make some random comment about your hope to meet INTPs.

So welcome and have fun!:hi:

And here´s a picture of the Sahara desert anyway, just for the heck of it.

Most of the propositions and questions to be found in philosophical works are not false but nonsensical. Consequently we cannot give any answer to questions of this kind, but can only point out that they are nonsensical. Most of the propositions and questions of philosophers arise from our failure to understand the logic of our language. (They belong to the same class as the question whether the good is more or less identical than the beautiful.) And it is not surprising that the deepest problems are in fact not problems at all.

INTPs are a myth.

To catch INTPs, you have to lay out bait. As an INTP, you should have an idea of what they might find enjoyable like an inconclusive thesis on why paint drying is a productive way to entertain oneself. But never give them the entire thesis. Lay an erratic bait trail one page at a time until you lead them to the facade of a gingerbread house. Leave the door open so they can see that it's actually a library full of inconclusive tomes of the unusual or incidentals. This will lull them into a sense of security enough to step inside. Once they've crossed the threshold, lock the door behind them. They're pretty low maintenance since food and water aren't of major interest but they will need to be replaced often due to shorter life spans.

Much luck in your hunting and welcome to TypeC!

If there ever was any reason to question your INTPness well now there's no longer any reason to. ;)


I have my type listed as INTX but I'm probably closer to INTP than INTJ. I relate to the cognitive functions of INTP but have a strong J streak and will often get INTJ on tests.
