Since INTJs have one, and so do a bunch of other types, it's unfair that INTPs don't have one.
So here it is.
Shoot away.

You......guttersnipe!
I hate INTPs cause I can't offend them *moons*
Yes, you can. Attack our competence and see the idiotic rage come out in full force
I hate you because you probably enjoyed Gödel, Escher, Bach. And even maybe understood it or at least had a theory on what the hell it was all about.
Absolutely love talking to you guys, but don't like the side effects that often occur (aka head ache!). It's worth it though
Fine, I hate you because you're too aware of your own level of rational analytical ability and it generates overconfidence in opinions that you've spent a lot of time rehashing in your mind/reassuring yourself are correct.
I hate you because you think that spending more time considering all the angles than most people entitles you to ignore new evidence when it's presented.
I hate you because you fail to consider that someone else, perhaps an INTJ, could come to a better conclusion than yours in less time and with less consideration.
I hate you because you insist on viewing yourselves as the most rational type, and yet you irrationally waste tremendous amounts of time and energy proving your points to people who neither understand nor appreciate them. You are often pathologically, emotionally, irrationally attached to feeling right. [/I](INTJs don't do this...but new studies show this behavior may also be characteristic of ENTPs )
I hate you because you perpetuate your own high instance of clinical depression by repeating depressing behaviors.
I hate you because you're usually right, and you know it, and so when you're wrong it's absolutely impossible to convince you of it.

Some of this rings true, but a large chunk doesn't. Don't forget, the INTP is.. just like the ENTP.. an external Ne. Both types prefer to keep changing their mind, and leave their options open.
I dont, in my experience, very often see INTPs as impossible to convince nor do I find them likely to ignore new evidence - in fact they get quite excited about new facts because it's feeds Ne, and allows them to bubble stuff around again.
Now.. some of the criticisms you raise could entirely be given to people who type themselves as INTPs, and try to act as they think an INTP should, but probably are not actually INTP.
Sometimes INTPs are open-minded, but sometimes when people contradict their argument it simply pisses them off terribly because they have figured out something so thoroughly in their head and therefore are too convinced of their rightness.
INTPs aren't as logical as they idealize themselves to be, especially when they have a very underdeveloped Fi gnawing and threatening to burst. This depends a lot on the maturity of the INTP in question.
