    and the earth will have renewed fertility
    I know, they arent all bad. Most of the ones i have met and known arent. In your opinion, why is there so much over prescription?
    I am not sure what happened there! I don't have a lot of technical knowledge about that but the tech admins rawr or Deathjam might have an answer to it!
    I am not sure what you mean by expired tokens. Do you mean typed messages that haven't yet been sent that get auto saved in the text box?
    I'm glad you've enjoyed it so far. I think you'll find my next entry, that I'm currently working on, interesting in how it relates to your field of neuropsychology.
    I don't think you're saintly or anything like that -- just a kewl dood with a good mind and good morals. :p
    Yes, I'm certain that the Enneagram is among the least scientific personality systems, but I find it useful as a tool for organizing information. I guess, to me, it's analogous to taking music and splitting it into the categories we have for it -- rock, classical, et al. Arbitrary, but handy, and with its own degree of truth.

    For instance, your experience in high school can be described as a manifestation of the classic Five terror of being absorbed by alien entities, and thence losing independence.

    I'm often reluctant to share my ideas...they're such a personal thing to me, as if they were extensions of my body, and had their own pain receptors fed back to my brain. They're my offspring, and I can't stand for people to criticize them...but, like children, they have to let out into the world at some point, or they won't ever do anyone else any good. Because ideas combat each other with the weapons of logic, developing T has been very instrumental for me -- I can both defend my ideas better should they encounter danger, and make sure they are more prepared not to run into trouble before they exit.
    I get that feeling of being an actor very, very frequently; I think ENFPs even more so.

    It's sometimes terrible because I end up using it as a camouflage of sorts. I perpetually feel like a journalist or scientist using the guise of friendly, "normal" human interaction, drawing on shared customs and values to blend in and gain confidence, to be able to conduct my studies in an up-close and hands-on way...like being "out in the field."

    All this is a means to get closer to the truth. I used to think all INJs were obsessed with truth, but now I'm beginning to see it as more of an Enneatype Five thing. Some INFJs are really just pragmatists in their motivations, even if their methods are the same, but Enneatype Fives, especially 5w4, I consider martyrs for truth. From examining my earlier years, I can conclude I'm a clear Four (emotional martyrs), but I also think I have a strong Five-wing, and my Tri-type is 4w5, 5w4, 9w1, in any case.
    Would you say that an extensive variety of vocabulary is an important feature of obfuscation? ;)
    Does your focus on pattern manipulation, goal-monitoring, and information synthesis include Modern Warfare 2 and Super Smash Bros? or is it confined to Skyriim? ;)
    That's interesting...it's easier for me to open up here.

    It's anxiousness that makes me wrap myself in my introverted shell in person.
