[INTJ] You know you are INTJ when...

[Qre:us]

.....when in a study group, everyone else got the same answer, except you, and you glibly rationalize that they're all wrong, and you're right.

.....when you have a "Top 10 list" of what human stupidity irritates you the most. And, when asked for the "Top 10 list" of what is best about humanity....you draw a blank, and scratch your head, to finally ponder.

.....when asked to just stroll through the woods, you ask the purpose for it, and the final destination of where one must end up.
- "we could go running in the woods, that way it's still exercising; walking does nothing."
(then, you do it anyway, grumbling that it's a 'waste of time', but during the process, get happy [much to your own suprise] that you could teach the other how to skip stones on the lake.....awww)

.....when you zone someone out because they're irritating you by not getting to the point, and your inner-thoughts are much more interesting.

....when you set up an elaborate system (including blueprints of the PLAN) to capture the gopher digging up your backyard.

....when you feel that no one knows your deepest inner thoughts, and they'd run if they found out.

(^anecdotes)

...when your superiors at work fear you.

 

[HomerSoprano]

When you make jokes that no one but yourself is lauging at and everyone else thinks you´re a jerk. Some might even feel insulted.

This is so spot on.

....when you feel that no one knows your deepest inner thoughts, and they'd run if they found out.

This as well.

...when your superiors at work fear you.

Hahha, but they can't sack you because they need you too much.

 

[phinny5608]

When you really wish there were such things as Vulcans, and that you had been born as one instead.

When you are blithely seen as a villain and don't particularly mind. Besides, you are satisfied in knowing in your own self that in reality you really care about people, just not in the inefficient sense of "caring" that is expected from you.

 

[forzen]

-you wonder why your an outcast for 99% of your life.
-you don't care that your an outcast for 99% of your life.
-you think everything can be explain and predict as long as theres no human factors.
-smiling takes alot of effort.
-your the only one that cared that pluto got demoted.

 

[thisGuy]

-you freak out when people skip social protocols cuz there is no manual on how to respond to unpredictability

-when you think you are the best at hiding your feelings from others even though everyone can see how troubled you are and are just playing along so you dont feel more uncomfortable

[Haphazard]

-You are among the legions of people who posted actual pictures of sock puppets in Santtu's thread

 

[Uytuun]

When 9/10 times you're in a fight you really didn't want to be part of it comes down to "It's just the way you said it!"

 

[Oaky]

When 9/10 times you're in a fight you really didn't want to be part of comes down to "It's the way you say it!"

Spot on.

I think this is more of a ISTJ thing.

 

[CuriousFeeling]

When your ex boyfriends from the past piss you off because they didn't know how to make their own independent choices and got so emotionally worked up about little things and didn't know how to toughen up and just deal with the problems and work through them.

When you use the "if...then" statements in everyday language.

When you're in a yoga class and they tell you to focus on the present moment in meditation, and in actuality, you think how stupid it is to focus on the present moment and focus about other things anyway.

When you spend most of your time in your room studying for tests and refuse invitations to parties.

When someone asks you if you want to join a sorority and you talk to your close friend about it, and they say that you're too headstrong to fall for social conformity.

When you think the idea of joining a sorority is ridiculous anyway.

When you question authority why they are asking you to do things.

There's a scientific explanation for everything.

When you run over a squirrel running out under your car, and you think "That thing just won the Darwin award!" (this actually happened to me today)

You see someone walking on the street and it's not in a safe place and mutter to yourself "what an idiot!"

When someone's talking to you about how it's wonderful to be proposed to unexpectedly, and you tell them that you'd rather get married when you're financially stable and have a job.

When in electronic and computer music class, everyone whines about how complicated it is to program an analog synthesizer (but you're confident you can operate it), and most people have said that they have failed the test on it, but you're the only one in class that aces the exam with flying colors, and you're not even a music major!

When you take a "What Star Trek Character" are you quiz, and you get Spock.

When the phrase "misery brings the old man laughter, the laughter of the world only grieves him" rings home.

Most of the music you listen to is esoteric obscure stuff that nobody's even heard of.

When people have told you that your poetry is written too mathematical/structured and you tell things, rather than show them in your writing.

Misspellings and incorrect use of the English language annoy you.

Someone whines to you about an obscure album you like, and how it's so expensive to get it and it has to be imported and they wish it would be with an American distributor, and you say "well, if you really want it, then you'll have to get it as an import."

When you were in middle school, you made up a "When I rule the world..." list.

Easy on the relationship rant there!

 

[CuriousFeeling]

Easy on the relationship rant there!

Yeah, I'm not going to get into it. That statement pretty much speaks for itself.

 

[Two Point Two]

When you are blithely seen as a villain and don't particularly mind. Besides, you are satisfied in knowing in your own self that in reality you really care about people, just not in the inefficient sense of "caring" that is expected from you.

This is so true it's scary.

 

[capricorn009]

Lol, a good question for NT types, do we have strong personalities, or did we
have strong personalities thrust upon us?

 

[Edgar]

-your the only one that cared that pluto got demoted.

Oh yeah, I was devastated.

When you visit your grandpa and while he is watching some movie that contains screams you phone your father and his first thought is that the grandpa is the one screaming in the background.
