    Default Description of Se and scenes from Memento

    I was thinking of two scenes from Memento

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=2FdPYc2efxw&feature=related

    and


    (this would be a short section starting at 1:00)

    What do you guys think--is Leonard describing Se here?
    ILI

    ¿Qué es la vida? Un frenesí.
    ¿Qué es la vida? Una ilusión;
    una sombra, una ficción
    y el mayor bien es pequeño.
    ¡Que toda la vida es sueño
    y los sueños, sueños son!

    That is Se, yes. There's another scene in The Borne Identity much like that one.

    (The bold is a great representation of Se.)

    Some would call this Te, but Expat and I were discussing it last year, and thought it was more Se. It's objective information about one's environment, which is exactly what "external statics of objects" means. Te in socionics refers to people's actions, which is why it's "external dynamics of objects"; it's what people (the objects) are doing (the dynamics) externally. Se is what people (the objects) are (the statics); that is, their physical external characteristics.

    I didn't agree in order to please your inflated ego. I agreed because France is currently a fucked up country (in social and economic terms).

    That's cool. I hate Americans. They're all a whole bunch of pushy rednecks like you who're obsessed with social success.

    You know, obsession for social success is sick, because the "game" of social status is a zero-sum game. All Americans are frustrated because they think they have to win that zero-sum game in order to be a good "American".

    aaaaaaaaaaaargh !!! I hate Americans !!!

    Yes, but you also said a bunch of silly, nebulous crap about social success/status that had me perplexed.

    Haha, France is militarily insignificant and economically archaic compared to a fake country.

    I assume you're talking about American citizens & not the American government. If I am correct, thats only completely true for the older generation, and to some extent (... ) the middle generation... the younger generation is going haywire (for american terms) in the opposite direction.. they seem to care nothing about financial success.. most of my friends care more about drugs then anything else. College is seen as an opportunity to get shitfaced for a couple of years. Talking about the generation X thing- as with anything, once it is put into the hands of the general public it is turned into something stupid. From my perspective what is happening is you have a bunch of kids who've grown up in this incredibly materialistic society... now they've all become adults and they've realized they have no connection with what their parents have provided for them.. it is not what they long for, or what they care about. I would even say they long for the opposite. but you'd have to live here to understand these things. It is a fair prediction America is going to change alot over the next 30 years ...

    But even beyond that- your position seems hypocritical if you shift perspectives. Don't you know everything is relative? I wonder what an African would have to say about you on this. I'm sure you would seem like a spoiled piss to them ...

    How much more materialistic are you then a monkey?

    ...you're such a smug prick.

    To the other guy:
    It is true Gamma is often called the master of financial success. This is however a limited way of understanding society. When it comes to obsessing about financial success, ESFj/ISFp are also often among the main offenders. They're seemingly obsessed with satisfying their superegos... For INTp/ENTj it is a passive and natural achievement to be successful.
    From my observations, for types like ISTp & ESTj, success is defined in a more material way.
    They're the types who will own all kinds of high tech shit, and care about their shit more than the people in their life.
    ENFj is often the type who will cheat their way into success
    ... the issue is alot more complex then "America = Gamma"
    It seems to me there are different points of view for looking at America as a society... (hence the term socionics), and that every type can be, generally, thought of in "American terms"

    ...so stop voicing opinions which are fucking stupid, k?

    This is like whores talking gossip in a whore house about who the biggest whore in the house is. The africans are standing outside thinking "you're all whores" .. the successful whore is looking at the other whores and thinking "You're a whore too you know" . The fat old whores who no ones wants to fuck are looking at the successful whore with bitterness.

    Kindly inform Major Heyward that he has little to fear from this General Marquis de Montcalm in the first place; and scant need of a colonial militia in the second because the French haven't the nature for war. Their Gallic laziness combines with their Latinate voluptuousness with the result that they would rather eat and make love with their faces than fight.

    Yeahhhhh, General Webb knows what he's talking about. Bitch.

    No shit! It's not even a stereotype. It's simply the case that machintruc understands nothing about real life, because he's hopelessly stuck in his little LII world of wonder and despair coexisting.

    OK. It's not really a stereotype of , but of SEE. You know, SEE = ADHD.
