Trolls are the superior beings. That's common knowledge.

by hitting them over the head with a rock and dragging her home by the hair to his under-bridge lair? :thinking:

INTP's are usually intellectual and smart, but they NEVER get anything done.

Curious about how you split intellectual and smart. Hope you didn't intend smart to mean street smart since that's not necessary a term I would apply to INTPs. ;)

They're not the same thing.

If somebody is smart that means nothing more than that he or she has a high IQ, if somebody is intellectual that means he or she actually does something with his or her intelligence.

I think it's funny that he was shot down by a posse of INTPs, mostly.

Can't blame him. We all crave for that ego stroke from time to time.

I bet he's the kid in class who everyone rolls their eyes at and goes "WTF is the guy talking about? He doesn't know what the hell he's talking about." Those kids are ALWAYS very entertaining.

Put him in a locked cage in the center of the forum so we can all poke and prod. Everyone got their sticks?

You say:
1. INTP's are intellectual.
2. Being intellectual requires one to actually do something .
3. INTP's NEVER get anything done.

Logically speaking, this is a fail. If we never do anything, but being intellectual requires *doing something*, then how can we be intellectual? It just didn't make sense, but it's not a big deal because I have to agree with the general idea you were pointing out - that we often times aren't results driven. That can be the downfall of the INTP if we don't make sure that *ideas* actually manifest into *real results*.

To the OP, everything that you SUCK at (you know what those things are as well as I do), there is somebody else who is EXTREMELY GOOD at it (i.e. they are superior to you in those areas and it wouldn't hurt you to humble yourself and learn from them - hopefully, that's an INTP trait as well), whether it be emotional IQ, matters of the heart (love), dealing with people, being humble, physically fit, well-rounded, etc. You're only considering the things you are good at, while conveniently forgetting the things you probably aren't good at.
