also: good for you dnbhead. I commend you for your hard work in learning to express yourself through dance but I must make mention that we are giving out the earned congratulatory pats on the back in the designated thread. Please use it if you need to compliment yourself or require compliments from others. We are trying to maitain a highly organized self-esteem management system and if you continue to disobey the organization there will be consequences of unpleasurable nature.

listen - if you want to look like a total idiot on the dance floor - go ahead and do it. other's like myself would like to have the skill to blow away the competion. and more so than that, while you think no one is paying attention - if you dance like a fool, people will call you a fool. and with an attitude like yours, people probably have a variety of names they call you. people will never go up to you - instead they will laugh away from you and you will simply be an outcast. but those like you will never notice because you generated your own world view about yourself.

Lighten up! Come on.. life's not all about the analyzation.. it's about the passion. The freedom. Just .. being. In the present moment. Just thinking about it makes me all furbly inside.. mhmmm... breathing in the warm summer air.. the touch of rain on my skin.. what does this have to do with anything in this thread? Umm.. helping ILIs stop being so damn prude! Do you ever get sick of observing everything and not partaking in it? I hate what you said about being called a fool - who gives two shits about what people say? Just do what you want to do and enjoy doing it.
You haven't truly begun to have fun until you've danced like a idiot in a club without a care in the world.

You COMPLETELY MISS the point of dancing. Dancing isn't a competition; anyone who's ever really danced knows that. If you think dancing is a competition, you'd might as well call eating competitive, or breathing competitive... Yes, some dance "better" than others; however, anyone who ostracizes another simply for having lower relative skill, doesn't know what dancing is about, and is therefore a dumb-ass pussy.
Fuck anyone who would call anyone a fool for dancing, those people aren't worthy of my attention.
Asking why it's worth the effort (to learn to dance) only further highlights your inherent ineptitude about the matter![]()

Dancing is definitely competition to my eyes, totally. But I know that most people don't think about it that way. I guess it's more healthy. However if you dance with a girl you really like you won't think about competition any more.
But anyway d123345254 is right that nobody ever ostracizes people that don't dance well, at least after you get past the 14 years of age; and anyway anybody that does needs only to be smashed a plate in the face.

To talk about competition is probably grounded on the false belief that everyone is watching you.
Dancing results mostly in the opposite; fainting away in the background of people. (unless you're the only one dancing :wink: )
It's just a way of blending in with the rythm of the music.
I think every ILI should learn some safe techniques and they will have more fun when going out...

some people don't mind looking like fools to others - i personally don't like looking like an idiot. it doesn't have to be a competition, but you shouldn't look like a moron flailing around like your having a seizure, thinking your all that. when in reality people have a totally different opinion.Originally Posted by drd252
you also show your intelligence by the vulgar language you use.
INTJ, INTp, ILI
you would be supprised how many people actually do notice these things - and you would never know it at all by looking at them. dance well, they know, dance poor, they know. and so forth. everyone is critiqued, you just won't know it, always wondering why there are giggles in the halls.Originally Posted by Jarno
fun is knowing when your competent in something. it's not a matter of moving to a rythm or fitting in - because in general we don't.

Have you ever played a game that quickly stops being "replayable" because you realise the way it evolves moves along a very limited set of rules which are easily picked up after a while?
This is what most people are like. They are not "replayable" games. You have nothing to learn by socialising with them. They will utter the same commonalities and face you with the same boring chit chat based on the same "rules of engagement" that pretty much everybody else play on.
Give me originality and unconventiality of thought, and I will socialise with you alright

Exactly. Thats why ESFp's and ENFp's get on well with INTp's because we cannot really be predicted very well.Originally Posted by Grek0
I know an INTp and hes pretty damn cool. His clothes aren't really cool and he wears glasses but he pulls it off brilliantly. He has this aura of self assuredness that i like. Everyone likes him in fact.

cursing is a sign of lack of power.
you curse because don't know of any other way to overcome (=win) the situation your in. (mostly during discussions or fights). It's a strategy used whenever losing has become a possibility.
To conclude, there is an indirect correlation to intelligence, because an "intelligent" person should be able to win a situation/discussion, so cursing wouldn't be an option.
I'm not that well informed about the meaning of vulgar language. It's probably just a habit.![]()
Cursing just gives me a way to let off a little bit of steam. Better that than physically damaging something out of frustration IMO. Oh no, I occasionally curse out of habit! That means I must be some stupid being only driven by primal instincts! HOW CAN I LIVE WITH MYSELF???

i'm sorry, I certainly didn't want to offend you, I was just theorizing a bit about the meaning of cursing etc.
if you curse to let off steam because you rather not fight, that is an ethically good way of dealing with the situation.
Don't worry, I'm not offended. I just have a bit of an odd sense of humour, so that was my way of introducing an alternative viewpoint in a way that amused me.

lmao. I'm pretty sure this isn't a library, or similar public institution. I'm also pretty sure you're not an officer of the law, a judge (and if you are, then, whatever), or any other person who commands respect simply from a title. Therefore, I don't particularly give a fuck if I speak with a certain crudeness, especially to an internet personality such as yourself (the opinions and perceptions of which are entirely irrelevant).Originally Posted by mike_INTJ
Bullshit. I curse (in this situation) because it feels right. I started cursing because Mike_INTJ wouldn't admit he is a fucking lame-ass pussy who cant/wont dance. The fact that he's been reduced to critiquing and making unfounded/ludicrous inferences about me in regard to my word usage is utterly hilarious.Originally Posted by Jarno

i don't want to care what i wear in front of a person, how i make them feel, how i might have done something better or expressed something more accurately. i don't want to care if i am naked or not. yet people cannot tolerate this lack of inhibition. you see, the least inhibited among us crawl into our hiding places because we know that the slightest glance or touch we receive or deliver may set us off. we are sensitive to people's movements. they touch us, we touch them, but really we only look to see how they are feeling when they are touching and being touched. it is impossible to know for sure. i cannot tell if they are pretending to feel better or worse than they really do. is it possible that i can read their faces for what they represent? we least inhibited ones prefer to be naked, yes, but also alone so we can comfortably finger the lint in our belly buttons.
i steer people to themselves at times too, yet i wonder if i do it in order to keep to myself. occasonally and suddenly, i have outstanding advice for people, much better than from any self help book or therapist i've ever met, and it usually happens to be intended for the people i wish would leave me alone.
it is not that my advice is meant insincerely. it's just that i can't be bothered with living other people's lives, making other people's decisions, etc. i would say that my greatest complaint about socializing with people is that most people, inevitably, expect too much of me. i like to think it's because they are blind, but the truth is probably closer to "i refuse to be seen."
whenever the dog and i see each other we both stop where we are. we regard each other with a mixture of sadness and suspicion and then we feign indifference.

Wow, after reading this whole thread I just wanted to let all you ILI's know that although I'll never really understand all of your issues (we all have them- i dont mean that in a bad way) i just want you all to know that i would kill to have yourit's soooo powerful and amazing and great... being
I don't know what's coming usually until I just do it and then when something bad happens I'm like "Shit that was stupid"... If I had an INTp around that kind of stuff would never happen.
One thing that interests me is how you guys are able to predict others' moves... can someone give an example of this? I feel like I kinda do it as well but in a different way.
I hope you guys realize that although I'm sure its hard to besometimes, it's hard to be all functions in their own way...

This one's quite difficult to explain.. I think the way I do it at least (I don't know if all INTps are the same or not) is that I (usually subconsciously) notice patterns in people's behaviour over time, and so when the pattern begins to repeat itself, I get an intuitive hunch that tells me what they're about to do. It's not the sort of thing I could likely tell someone in advance, it's more a case of "I knew you was going to do that" or "I had a feeling you were about to say that" or something to that extent. I can still do this with people I don't know very well, but that's only using general patterns I see in a lot of people so it's less likely to be accurate than someone I know. I hope that makes sense.Originally Posted by liveandletlive
