[SJ] What do we SJs have in common?

[Giggly]

Not meeee!

Nuh uh. You SO got distracted by pretty flashing lights.

 

[Habba]

How do you SJs react on people who don't follow the news, aren't interested in the world events and have absolutely no interest in politics (won't vote, for an example)?

I've never voted (except for Lord in Eurovision contest. ), and probably never will. I'm up to date to the world events, but mostly because I'm so keen on picking up facts from everywhere. I have no interest in those at all. And I never watch news from the TV.

That's perfectly fine by me. I don't follow the news either.

^What?! When! I'm just an observant fellow. I NEVER get distracted!

I don't follow the news all the time, I do however pay attention to the major things that happen. You know, like the plane crash in Buffalo,NY only an hour and a half away.

It's up to other's whether they want to watch the news or not. Not a problem with me! But if they do watch it and pay attention to current events it does add a sense of responsibility in them, in my opinion.

What do SJs have in common?

How about... "we like to keep things together," is that vague enough to cover it?

Sure, because it's vague enough to include types outside of SJs as well.

^ Yeah there ya go Cimarron, way to use your N.

Here's a question: Whenever I screw up, I can go on a silent rant about myself and really beat myself up over it. I have no problem with taking the consequences and being responsible for my actions.

Does this sounds familiar?

What do you mean "however"? How are those two things opposing each other? I agree strongly with that, but probably not everyone does.

OK I'll fix it! :steam: Jeez, what are you an English major?!

Anyway, you know what I meant. Just answer the question man!

 

[Cimarron]

Like I said, I agree strongly with it. Your statement is true for me.

 

[Kasper]

Also, do I seem J to you?

The most scrumptious kinda J evah!

My ISTJ wouldn't miss the news. But he consistently gets it from the same source, at the same time of day and then discusses it with other STJs so he doesn't get much of a broad interpretation.

Now that you mention it, my ISTJ dad is a news junky... He also gets his information from the same places everyday but usually from 5-10 different sources.

 

[Anja]

That seems like a good idea. To choose from several sources. Apparently not all ISTJs do it my husband's way, then.

That raises the question: Do ISTJs tend to look to each other to reinforce their views? Oh heck. I think everybody does that. Are they more likely to do so since there are so many of them? I often get the feeling from ISTJs that "That's the way we do it because that's the way it's always been done because that's what works." That kind of thing.

Oh, I didn't see that part of your post! My apologies.

Watch FOX NEWS

The ISTJs I know also watch or read the news faithfully, usually from the same source.

Hmm, mine never watches the news, and despite being a registered democrat and votes that way all the time, has republican views and ideals.

Oopsie, I forgot to say ISTJ, instead of STJ. That said, I'm not implying that all ISTJs watch the news or are republican. I used to be like your STJ, until someone I know pointed it out to me and then I aligned how I voted with my views and ideals.

The most scrumptious kinda J evah!

Aww, thank you, darling.

 

[d@v3]

Well I'm a conservative republican and I think it may have something to do with being an ISTJ (or vise-versa)... however, I don't vote by party, I vote for what I believe is best for the country!

Right on! That's the best way to do it.
