OK, So because of the fact that I am not an INTJ, I feel like sort of a guest here. So in that spirit, Instead of droning on about the things that interest me, Im going to make an attempt to start some threads that INTJs will be interested in. Here is my first brainstorm list:



Lets disprove Astrology by doing gravitational caluculations

James Bond KICKS ASS!!!!

Genetic engineering for fun and profit

Where can I buy an authentically styled Hannibal Lecter Face mask

I hate health insurance

Lets Get Efficient!!

Small animal skeletons are cool

Cloning your neighbors cat

Party Tricks to wow the extroverts

27 hours in front of my computer screen

Check out my authentic Pirate memorabilia

Celebrating Pi day



Maybe I'm way off base here....so you help me.

Everyone gimme 5 favorite topics of an INTJ

Man, wow its hard for us INTJ, its all over the place. Your definitely an INTP. I bursted out laughing, "27 hours in front of my computer screen."

I am not speaking for fellow INTJ's, so it might bore u with my list:

1. Sci-fi is definitely a big plus- It allows you to see things or wished things can happen because it makes alot of sense.

2. As you mentioned, James bond is cool [common with INTP].

3. Make lists [this is a big turn off for INTP's because for you its go with the flow and until it never stop].

4. Why are there so many dumb people? Could we make a big consensus in trying to become smart?

5. Life is a mystery...Do you see the big picture?

I think if I thought of some good topic ideas, I'd just go ahead and make a thread about them instead of putting them in another thread to talk about how we should talk about them. :P

Well,

Goodness knows that you have been putting lots of time and effort into starting provocative threads. So you are absolved. However, this thread isnt so totally literal as to only be about the threads that INTJs wanna start, it is also an opportunity to once again discuss what it is that makes the INTJ genuinely unique by discussing what it is that they like to discuss. And it is an opportunity for posters to show their wittiness by coming up with ironically named INTJ centric thread titles which may never be used.


EDITED...lots of typos that changed the meaning.

for Stop means anything goes; lol. Let the imagination take over you without stopping so much. Probably nodding his/her head, wow MW speak my language. But, I will get back to you.

Okay, off the top of my head a few interest areas (you'll have to do the work getting thread titles out of this though ;) ):

What motivates people to do things that don't make sense to me, and why they react strangely to things that do make sense to me.

Food, nutrition and how it affects the mind/body, food additives.

Animals, how they think, their role, treatment.

Computers, but only the areas I have some knowledge in (not that I have to already know everything about it, just that it has to be an area that I have some kind of involvement with. I wouldn't know what to contribute to a very technical thread about programming, for example).

There's more, but I have to finish getting ready for work. It's going to be a busy day so I probably won't be around to respond to this until later this afternoon.

OK, some INTJ-inspired threads;
A systemic analysis of dishwasher packing density (why can't people put stuff in the dishwasher in an organized manner?)

Toilet paper; over, or under – a hygienic imperative (do you put the toilet paper in the holder so it passes over the roll, or under)

How much would you REALLY pay for that doggie in the window? (self explanatory)

Buddha vs Jesus in a cage match – who would win?

On Mythbusters, why is "Plausible" an option?

Is Jessica Simpson really that stupid (substitute Paris Hilton, Brittany Spears, Nicole Ritchie at will)

Did Columbus actually "discover" the New World?

He was refering to the catch phrase, "Did chicken came from Tuna?" Man, when I heard that make me flip out. Well they are food for one thing, but one is seafood and the other is poultry.

No, a "can any human being be as stupid as JS" thread. ;) Big difference. We can anlyze the limits of human illogic.

Ah, but that's the problem. No real INTJ knows or cares who Jessica Simpson is. :P

just let me add
Celebrating Mole Day (10/23 at 6:02pm/am OR 6/02 at 10:23am/pm however the former is celebrated more because it's during the school year where Avogadro's number is 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol)

National Chemistry Week - Coming up next week! I'm going to have to make some sort of post acknowledging that. hm....oh duh! they have National Chemistry week that week because of Mole Day! Sigh....Why didn't I make the connection before?!

Not like I go out and celebrate those...but they exist and I think they should be mentioned if Pi Day was mentioned....

What interests me -
Animal behavior/psychology/treatment/ethics - and of course the random cool fact that the blue whale is the biggest animal in existence measuring 110 feet long and a person could swim through its arteries and its heart is the size of a small car.

Science!
Chemistry - environmental chemistry, inorganic chem, applications of chemistry and how chemistry could be applied to potentially improve lives, etc - there's a lot of exciting research going on in that direction!
Other sciences - a little astronomy here and there, physics, the random odd bigger than cellular biology thing.
neuroscience and some mental disorders/ neurological diseases - and people's reactions to them as in why do they treat someone like x and someone else like y with z and w diseases? the science behind the disease
a bit of pharmacology too. how drugs interact, etc.

human behavior/psychology

and some other random things...
