    hmm...k, well you stick to whatever wonderful sources your getting your information on the nature of "reality" from...and i'll stick to Socretes, Nietszche, and Plato. ...jeez...ever since Bacon tricked everyone into believing they were "enlightened", everyone seems to believe they have all the answers...i'm looking at you postmodernists!

    p.s. I "believe" socionics works actually. Twas merely exposing how simple it is to suggest that it doesn't. Asking questions instead of blindly believing whatever is always a good idea I think...

    lol ya I love when people admit they can't know anything. Socrates was a trixxy old fooler.

    Blindly denying in the case where the theory in question indeed works is much worse than blindly believing the truth.

    Crispy, Socretes is not the only philosopher guilty of stating this...also, I don't even understand what your second sentence means. Additionally, I would recommend forgetting about what you know...or rather, what you think you know...

    The first quote is a direct results of you using the 2nd quote's tactic on yourself, with normal information erasing results. You would be able to understand my normal English sentences if you didn't question yourself knowing what I mean by my normal English words.

    Forcibly forgetting what you know is a good way to become a zombie, but not to become "intelligent" lol.

    I don't even know what this means. More of a result of bad grammar and logic than anything else. Also, I don't think it's a good idea for you to insult my intelligence...I attend Harvard...I fucking hate saying that cause it makes me sound like an asshole and i KNOW it doesn't actually mean shit and has nothing to do with intelligence...but seriously, writing someone off as dumb or insane isn't the best idea just cause they don't see things the same way you do...it's dismissive. Also, keep in mind that I AGREE with socionics...BUT, I also have a healthy dose of skepticism about it...

    Just keep eyeballin' the inter-type relations and the rest of the pieces will fall into place eventually. Using the age old "Let's give up" philosophy will only impede progress on your personal journey. None of this is meant to be condescending mind you (that gains nothing) but even skepticism needs to be overcome when it is not needed.

    If socionics didn't work, I'll most likely keep using it anyway, because I'm so used to it.

    This one time I kept slamming my head against a door for nine hours in order to open it. It didn't work, of course, but I kept doing it anyway because I was so used to it.
