    Looks as if you don't know when she is going to, hmm, jump out of that still pic, shred the cat and eat it. Do not reincarnate a cat, lungs.

    Children's books!

    Shel Silverstein
    Roald Dahl

    I would probably remember more if I gave a shit about what I read in high school.

    I totally agree with shel silverstein. My FiNe mom introduced me to him when I was younger. I tried to introduce his poems to my SeFi daughter, but she thought they were too weird.

    Chronicles of Narnia are way to symbolically based to be Delta. Imo, it's an Ni base storyline and theme. Some of the characters might have been Deltan, however.

    I have serious doubts about Tolkein, but I guess he coulda been TeSi,

    I was told Lewis was LII and Tolkien EII. I think that makes sense.

    J.D. Salinger? I'm reading Catcher in the Rye atm; seems super Fi + EP, constantly interrupting himself to talk about how he's judged everybody but never tell them how he really feels. Gets kind of annoying after a chapter or two.



    I went to see him. He was a douche. I never liked him. He would always chop half an onion when he made his breakfast and always left the other half on the countertop, as if his hands were too polluted from the first half to continue with the second step of storing the damn stuff. Sometimes I would stare into the back of his head and concentrate real hard on mentally projecting in his general direction 'clean up your shit' in a passive-aggressive attempt to engage in real communication. As of yet this tactic has not served me well. God I hope I get out of this place soon. If the rest of the world is filled with douchebags like him then I see no purpose in engaging with humanity so long as I identify myself as one of them. Perhaps were I to sprout feathers and wings I could fly free from the clutches of such a miserable cesspool that is the population of what seems to be the entire county, set up roost in the mountains of Nowheresville and spend my summers not giving a fuck about the daily drivel of the so-called "intelligent" ilk.

    Anyway, he was doing the crossword puzzle. I wanted to do the crossword puzzle. That motherfucker.

    Is this a quote out of Salinger's writing? If so he certainly writes like a Delta. His sentiments are so much alike this, even the phrase about "sprouting feathers and wings to fly free": http://www.the16types.info/vbulletin...Stratiyevskaya

    Saderis is SLI, Dostoevsky is EII, not many LSE writers but there are LSE translators of poetry, idk if IEE have the patience to write long novels

    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

    You didn't ask for such, but I will give it anyways.

    Eglit from socionicsys.org is an ESTj prominent Socionist and is currently active. If you look for Socionics articles by her on google and use google translate, you could probably accelerate your Socionics stuff 10-fold.

    This was me poorly parodying his writing. I don't think the term "douche" was ever in vogue during his time.

    I've heard a few people say that Larry McMurty, the author of Lonesome Dove, is an LSE. I read the book and it checks out. Definitely recommend it for the style alone.
