I am your twin, Snaps, only with more awareness of the inconsistency between my own statements. hurrrrrr.

are you here to play sisyphus?

Hello, projection. I'm not the one asking people to engage in activities they're already going to commit, or recycling the same handful of names in a fuck/marry/kill thread, or requesting assistance for the umpteen time to determine my latest and greatest true type. I'm telling Sisyphus to give the senseless repetitions a break. You'd have scored a better jab at me by invoking Canute futilely commanding the tides not to rise.

Owing to the limitations of typology, introspection, and empirical observation, there will always be individuals who defy neat or convincing categorization, just as there will also be those who, through errant over-identification with a given archetype, anchor themselves tenaciously within pigeonholes that don't actually conform to their psychic outlines. Further, experimenting with roles and identities is common for (post-)adolescents, quite often donning the readymade costumes, lingo, and other conventions of one social schema after another. That extends to typological categorizations as well. Due to this I found Dolphin's recent comment on Fenryrr's type ambiguity to be apt. Fenryrr can answer for herself why arriving at a single type is personally important*, though to my thinking she'd define herself in a superior fashion through examining her actions, attitudes, and relationships in themselves rather than focusing on comparing them with diagrams purporting to offer shortcuts to the self.

* If you've read your Jung you'll see the sense (to the extent that typology is sensible, ahem) in choosing two sociotypes, one for the everyday ego that routinely mediates between the self and the waking world, and another representing the primitive and archaic forces of the unconscious. So basically you can have your IEE and eat your SEI, too.

much better. the zingy one liners are cute but posts like this are where you really make an irreplaceable contribution.

I'm bored and lonely and I take an easy way out by posting threads on the forum designed to tickle intrapersonal and interpersonal buttons in a shallow way. its not really cool or defensible but I already know that and I'm disappointed you don't know that I already know that.

at least you acknowledge you've had your own role here.

I am 100% serious on the Internet 100% of the time because the Internet is serious business.

...or requesting assistance for the umpteen time to determine my latest and greatest true type.

This is how the situation looks in the mind of another person typing you.

[Absurd]

You're mistyped as well, Pa3s.

[Gilly]

I always assumed fen was SEI. She's a sweetheart and I find her absolutely adorable.

Obvious Fe creative is obvious, mirite?

[Absurd]
