I don't recognize this brand of ISTJ. My ISTJ father would vacuum his lawn if he could.
A lot of them take real pride in how their house looks "just so".
HANK HILL!!

I suppose INTP's are masochistic. Though ironically enough I think it's to find an inperfection, that they don't REALLY believe exists.
It's spelled imperf...............oh, nevermind. But, sometimes, you see, the "imperfections" really do exist. Sorry, I had to do it simply for the irony.
The older I get, the more I learn to let the small stuff go. But, it's hard to let things go if they're flat out wrong and they're just staring you in the face going:
How do you mean that INTP's are masochistic though? Do you mean that by being finicky, we only end up hurting ourselves and/or pushing others away from us?
I wondered if it was spelled with an 'm' instead of an 'n' I just didn't feel like looking it up. I changed it. I mean INTP's enjoy pointing out flaws in themselves as either a means to fit in, or too have an excuse for why they are the way the are, giving themselves a certain validation, which to them makes them appear normal. There is something comforting about having an external locus of control. I suppose this also comes with a secret inferiority complex, so I may be projecting.
I don't quite see how seeing one's own flaws would make one masochistic. Many people try their best to avoid seeing their shortcomings to do exactly what I highlighted in bold text.
Though I do see how you can perceive masochism in someone trying to smother out their flaws. Like picking at a scab. So I suppose all perfectionists masochists?

Sadism schmadism. It's called moral courage and intellectual integrity. (You gotta learn to spin, bro!)I find we are often mentally sadistic in that we don't have to lie to hurt people, we just point out the ugly truths and the blunt reallity.
