    Default machintruc

    As I was browsing upon these fine, fine archives, I was horrified to discover that we have not a thread for typing goody machintruc.

    Please, discuss.

    The consensus is LII. However, niffweed is

    I personally think the language barrier contributes to his supposed stupidity. However, that's what discussion is for.

    So, my little monkeys, discuss, discuss!

    His command of English seems to be limited almost entirely to the words "retard" and "dude" (which he sometimes uses in inappropriate places). No thoughts on his type as of yet, though.
    "How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."

    Don't forget "hate" and "offensive."

    Í am not saying I am right in this at all, but there is something about him that seems somewhat Beta ST to me.

    You fail to mention his overly-frequent and disturbingly incorrect usage of the words "autist" and "redneck."

    I've been trying to figure Machintruc out for a while. First when I noticed his "jokes" I couldn't tell if he was being serious or not. I tried to counter some of them in a way that demonstrated that I was offended (well, mildly). [Note: I was not really offended.] I wanted to see if he would argue his points further or get upset or something. He never appears to get upset actually (in his posts). I don't know when my perception changed to tell me that all of the things that he posts are actually intended as "humor" rather than as an expression of being biased. His jokes, as many have noticed, aren't really very funny, yet he continues to tell them. He argues that even if people who object to them don't like them, that doesn't mean you can't find one (solitary?) person somewhere on Earth who does find them funny. (FDG said he finds them funny actually.) Anyway, then Machintruc went on about the "boldness" of his jokes--how he has the courage to post jokes that will offend people.

    I sort of wondered if Machintruc's "jokes" might really be a way for him to express his dual-seeking. Although, Machintruc has referred to Fe-leading types as "retarded" on more than one occassion (unless I'm confusing that with all the other types he has called "retarded"), he does seem to genuinely like and would love to find himself a cute ESE girl with a low I.Q. He also expressed once that he won't resort to whining about how no one understands him just because they don't understand his jokes and can't tell that they are jokes. For some reason, when he said that, I really thought it was his dual-seeking at work. He just seems to want .

    I have also "witnessed" several instances of Machintruc "attacking" the Gamma quadra. He seems to especially "hate" ILIs, and finds Ni-leading types retarded and autistic in general. > it seems.

    Although Machintruc has posted at least two threads about how is the most "manly" IM element, he seems pretty infantile to me. That's just a passing thought.

    The utter absurdity of posting horrible jokes that are the absolute epitome of crude humor and then apparently laughing at said jokes himself, is just a never-ending satire. This is why I find this amusing. Frankly, I feel this is a manifestation of Machintruc being creative. I do see similar absurdist things in the humor of people like Logos and well, actually, Douglas Adams, now that I think of it.

    Machintruc's blind devotion to is evident in every single thread he posts. Of course he is leading.

    So the real question is, is it possible that he's LSI and not LII? There have indeed been times where I've thought, you know, Machintruc seems to be rather effective with . But, still, by his own account, he feels that LSI's are tougher than he is, and well, I would say that implies they are also more "manly."

    So I personally think he's LII. I think it's pretty clear. To me. Right now.

    Edit: adding on. I still don't feel I've expressed the way I see his jokes very well yet. This is why it's absurd:
    -They're not funny
    -They're redundant
    -He posts them every where
    -They don't ever change even though everyone objects to them
    -He seems to think they are funny
    -It's "Alpha humor" according to him

    Do you see? It's completely ridiculous... Why would he do that... so my theory is he's laughing over this entire situation he's created on the forum with his "jokes." In that sense it is absurdist humor.

    what machintruc thinks about particular socionic concepts (ie about ILIs) is irrelevant because he doesn't understand them.

    Thank you, Loki, for that post. I found it amusing.

    Maybe you're just depressed and narrow-minded.

    Sometimes consistency breeds imitation.

    Oh yes, this is not a serious topic. So if you're offended please do not be so sensitive.

    I'm still probably missing something...
    AHAHAHAHAHAHA

    This is true, unfortunately. If there's something funny about his posts, it's the desperate attempt to actually sound funny which is usually driven to the extreme. I know one LII guy IRL whos humor is usually limited to exaggerating things to the extreme. Therefore LII for Machintruc.

    Unhappy

    I'm really sorry that such jokes didn't amuse everyone. I was trying to be funny, but it seems that I'm not really competent at it.

    I'm currently thinking of limiting my contribution here to serious posts I may do, either on IM or other scientific things. However, there are other places where my humour is more accepted (net or IRL).

    I'm sorry.

    (I didn't think you should stop telling your jokes.)

    It takes a lot of courage to apologise And, therefore, it earns far more respect.

    It is great that you are trying to be funny. It shows that you want to connect with people on the forum, put them at ease etc. But maybe you should just relax, chill, be a dude and not force it.

    Let people see your good side. When I was talking with you on PM, you were, although quite brief, also generous with your time, and with someone who you hardly know.

    And the fact that you have the integrity to apologise is great.

    When I was questioning your sense of humour, I was not trying to convert you. In retrospect, I feel very ambivalent about talking about people. Because, if they change, I feel that I might have forced them to change ... which I don't want. So, don't change because of anybody. Change because you want to, from the inside.

    If I have every 'preached' down to you, I sincerely apologise for that.

    Kindly (and I mean that),
    Five/Tanzhe
