    Default Tom Russell

    Another one of my favorite singer/songwriters (no hyperbole here @Park - this enthusiasm is immune to curbing). I will never forgive myself for missing his gig in Toronto because of my summer funk (especially since his music kept me somewhat sane). So underrated. I am pretty sure of his type, but what do you think?

    This is what you listen to on a Greyhound bus going West..True Southwest Americana.

    LSE??
    -
    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    It's not about enthusiasm, it's about improper usage of certain words that are oath to express something else. You can't call everything you come across and like "favorite" - that's not what that word means.

    I've been irrational like that myself. Regrets or no regrets, life moves on.

    I don't like his music and I don't think anything about his type.

    immediate impression is one of three types... LIE, LSE, ILE

    Now this is a story all about how, my type got changed, turned upside down. Just wait for a minute and watch chatbox right there, & I'll tell how Gem became the moderator with blue hair.

    In typology central friended and praised, on the picture thread was where she spent most her days. Chilling out, selfies, relaxing all cool, And all typing some people and getting them schooled.

    When a couple of girls who were up to no good, Started annoying her & her friends in the forumhood, She got in one little flame war & got pissed off & said 'I'm moving in with that exboyfriend in the forum with the socionics toffs.

    So Gem pulls up to the forum for a year without being a hater, And yells to typocentral 'Yo creeps! Smell Ya later', Became a mod in her kingdom she was finally there, To sit on her throne as the mod with blue hair.

    I would say that that word means different things in different linguistic, cultural, and emotional contexts. Something can be my favorite for a time, for a specific situation, within a specific genre, etc. In any case, if I have a few true favorites, Tom Russell is one of them.

    True, although missed opportunities are among the things that I cannot handle very well in general.

    I don't like his music and I don't think anything about his type.

    Also @Geminatronix

    Yes, I would agree that at least he VIs as ExTx and based on demeanor, lyrics, and my own emotional reaction to his music, I would think LSE (like, imo, Bruce Springsteen - I appreciate their music for very similar reasons I think).

    Any other suggestions, anyone?

    I had been thinking the same thing. I also watched a bit of one of the videos
    You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the one you seek.
    But first you must travel a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril.
    You shall see things, wonderful to tell. You shall see a... cow... on the roof of a cotton house. And, oh, so many startlements.
    I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the ob-stacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward.
    Though the road may wind, yea, your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow them, even unto your salvation
