I wonder, what is like to have an introverted intuition as your primary mental (first function) information processing device? What do INTPs "see" most of the time? What are your ideas about? Are you absent ]minded like ENTPs, when watching your "the TV set"?

This description is probably as good as any other. Rational (J) types have usually a greater illusion of conscious freedom to think what they want, whereas irrational (P) types never really know in advance what they will be thinking about...
