Beta Census

[redbaron]

I couldn't even begin to imagine being an IEI male.

yeah, I'll bet it has its challenges for sure.

Start thinking of yourself as above everyone else. At some point it might come true.

Find an SLE who thinks highly of you! That always helps too.

[Gilly]

easy

Whore.

I said this in another thread, I'll say it again: IEIs always seem like the "coolest" people to me, like they can afford to dismiss people and be selective about their friends, which is attractive to me; makes me want to prove myself or something.

[Gilly]

You are projecting.

I wish

I frequently dismiss people, and I'm hyper-selective about my friends, but I don't see how that makes me cool. Maybe it makes me IEI.

Oh christ, not again.

[silverchris9]

how the fuck do INFps become non losers

Duh! They write poetry!

But seriously, that's why I'm a three-wing. IEI + Dude = not socially popular atm (or ever?). But, IEI + Dude + Movie star/sexy soul singer/that one straight guy in your acting class/extremely successful in limited literary and/or academical academic (epic fail, Sr. Grammar Nazi) circles = moderately socially popular (obviously, the farther you get down that list, the less socially popular you get). Also, IEI guys are in right now; just go join an emo band.

Also, what Mimosa said. It'll piss off every other man in the country, and you'll be sitting pretty.

a) I don't do that at all. I'm sort of a friend-whore.
b) If I do do that it's 100% accidental, because I can't be bothered to get up and pursue friendships unless the potential-friend person is legitimately worthwhile, or I'm seriously lacking in decent friends.
c) Maybe the reason you find this so attractive is because your are a highly repressed IEI who feels obligated to exhibit excessive amounts of Fe (tinged with Fi when necessary) in order to maintain any status or appreciation in the external world and maintain positive relationship with, well, anybody. Now, I am projecting. (God, I feel like I need to take a class on Freud just to participate in discussion around here).

. Nah, you just break socionics is all. IEI-ESTp subtype like in that other person's signature.

Also, Gilly, have I said already that I like your sig quote quite a lot? Nietzche on art is . Also, he said that the love of poetry is another variant of the love of power, which, as violently misread by Harold Bloom, is a great illustrator of the fact that IEIs ("lyrists") and SLEs ("commanders" or something, right?) are really one and the same just opposite. (I think I might have posted that already...)

Nietzsche is basically Nietzsche.

Just implicitly assume it. Problem gone.

lol. "Afford to dismiss" is interesting phrasing, and it does ring true. I'm not sure why it is, as I don't not want to have valuable people around. I suppose my natural state is just one of absent autonomy, so I don't expect them to be there until they are; and once they're gone, it can feel like nothing changed (or wrathful wist sets in…).

Maybe you're aristocratic.

allies more fearsome than you, and shes barely on my radar

[strrrng]

I don't care about being "fearsome." I just wanted to address you appropriately.

[thePirate]

you ooze pretentiousness but lack the substance to be taken seriously, refine your persona and come at me properly

[strrrng]

lol. Appraising someone based on the persona they present. Who's pretentious?

[thePirate]

lol. Appraising someone based on the persona they present. Who's pretentious?

certainly not the pseudo-intellectual grasping at straws.

its getting old, strrrng.

[strrrng]

Grasping at straws? You fail to even "grasp" the implication behind my initial statement.


Hint: it had nothing to with attacking you.

[crazedrat]

its getting old, strrrng.

condescension masked with an endearing tone.. cringeworthy

you really blur the line

[strrrng]

As if attempting to passively evade blurs it any less.

yeah, thats me, passive evader

[silverchris9]

...ugh. No gracias. Yo no la quiero; revuelvala. No voy a pagar por esta caca. Mesero! Mesero! Donde estan mis papas fritas? Hola, senor? Senor? Estas escuchandome? Puedes oir? MIS. PAPAS. FRITAS!!!! Vaya! Vaya! Ahorita, vaya, vaya. Las papas o tu cabeza, senor!

condescension masked with an endearing tone.. cringeworthy

That was roughly my reaction. How old are you, Pirate (p.s., now that you're beta, I still like you, I just was annoyed by the tone of this particular argument)? (srs question)

EDIT:

This one:

yeah, thats me, passive evader

Was a little better.

I dont want you to like me, for some reason I cant quite comprehend why people on here still do, I like and respect a select few, other than that I thought I had done enough to alienate a good number of people.

anyway, I only give out that information to people who seem trustworthy, people I find of particular interest, or posters who I really like for some reason.


you dont qualify

[silverchris9]

Yeah, you have, but I don't generally hold grudges or anything like that.

anyway, I only give out that information to people who seem trustworthy, people I find of particular interest, or posters who I really like for some reason.


you dont qualify[/QUOTE]

Oh, fine then. I was just wondering if you were an adolescent or some sort of adult. Or thirteen. I would know how to treat you if you were thirteen. (granted, you would be an extraordinarily bright thirteen year old.) And sorry if my "nice insurance" offended you. I don't like to hurt people's feelings. But I will do my best to assume henceforth that you genuinely don't care what I say at all.

Also: and we don't like you either we're cheerleaders. (I very nearly quoted the "we are leigon" bit in a sort of "he do the police in different voices" way, but then I remembered that I'm a christian, and I really do believe in demon possession, so I dropped it).

[thePirate]

I wasnt saying that to douche you out, I know the tone was harsh but thats really just how I use the forum. It's not like Im avoiding your posts or anything.

just treat me like a human being.

[silverchris9]

Oh, no, I didn't assume that you were. Harsh is fine. In fact, I was going to mention how I appreciate your bluntness. I can relate. I also enjoy not stemming the flow of thought or opinion. The point of a forum is, through anonymity, to rid one's self of the censorious superego, no? Or perhaps you do not have a superego?

Also, just treat me like a human being is not fair at all. You know that you treat people differently based on what you know about them. I'm just trying to sound you out, to get a better picture in my head. I can't do anything without a good picture in my head. But fine, I'll try, I guess.

(You are EIE. I like you. This places no claim on you whatsoever, however.)

[crazedrat]

I wasnt saying that to douche you out, I know the tone was harsh but thats really just how I use the forum.

Probably something you picked up from past life experience. I have a similar problem of taking a very harsh tone with people.. I think it comes from how I naturally perceive the world. Take for example your interpretation of strrrngs intentions. You should probably contemplate the natural disposition of your perceptions..

[strrrng]

just treat me like a human being.

And the truth shows itself.

[thePirate]

Also, just treat me like a human being is not fair at all. You know that you treat people differently based on what you know about them.

haha, yes that I can not deny. maybe the picture will become clearer as time goes on, but for now what you see is all I'm comfortable giving of myself.

life experience. I have a similar problem of taking a very harsh tone with people.. I think it comes from how I naturally perceive the world. Take for example your interpretation of strrrngs intentions. You should probably contemplate the natural disposition of your perceptions..

lol with people outside this forum, its almost the opposite. I dont take a harsh tone very frequently, and when I do it's rarely if ever taken the wrong way. this forums just a free for all for me.

[strrrng]

I harbor no sentiments toward you. My opinion of you has been partially conveyed in this thread, although you seem to have overlooked the content that it is based on, which is of no consequence.
