@Daeus I was pretty sure you were exaggerating, but it was too good an opportunity to tease you to pass up. 😉
And yes, that is really annoying. Or when they keep asking the same question… over… and over… and over. And it’s just like “I’ve already answered that a dozen times already! Do you need me to explain it in a different language?!”
*ahem* Anywho… yeah. 😉
"Courage is action in spite of fear."
@daeus So glad you agree.
The criticism is probably going to be the worst part of writing for you and me, then. I take pain when people don’t like something. Of course, I could never let anyone know that, because then it would be a weakness to me. Can’t. Show. Them. Anything.☀ ☀ ☀ ENFP ☀ ☀ ☀
Except people don’t convince me I’m wrong. They convince me that I need to reconsider something and then I convince myself that I am wrong. And I don’t show how confident I am of my opinions. I sound open minded even though I’m not… but I am very open minded… but I’m not… but I am! Ugh! It’s just an ENFJ thing. We’re both extremely dogmatic unlike anybody you could ever imagine and yet perfectly willing to give another view our utmost consideration with all earnestness.

Alrighty. Not sure why I’ve been tagged, exactly, but here goes nothing.
I don’t act out fight scenes, (am I the only one who doesn’t?) but I have been known to sneak around in dark clothes with a weapon or two in the woods behind our house.
@anne-of-lothlorien, I probably would have kept dancing too. 😉
@dragon-snapper: This so much. I don’t really like telling people about my writings, unless they know me very well and think writing is not crazy. (So, basically two people) Even then, I don’t like criticism because I am a major perfectionist.Of course, I could never let anyone know that, because then it would be a weakness to me. Can’t. Show. Them. Anything.
And where is this wonderful camp of yours?! (If I had money, I would go 😛 ) @corissa-maiden-of-praise
@Daeus about your logic thingy. I’d agree with you but then we’d both be wrong. *devious grin* yah that’s me. I pretty much don’t care if you disagree with me, I just don’t like you doing it.
@corissa-maiden-of-praise That was the neighbor boy Milo who I impersonated at the hockey game.ENFP - "One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane."
*gigantic group hug* I love everybody so much!!!
I have had SO. MUCH. FUN. reading this thread. All the stuffs are just so…nice. 😀 😀About being feely—I like hugs, but only if the recipient likes it too. I would hate to hug someone who didn’t want me too. Also I love handshakes, especially ones with character. There’s something so nice about a sincere handshake. And does anyone else love to touch the soft toy animals in stores, just cuz they’re so silky and feely? I love soft and fuzzy and smooth things. And this is mental, but when I get feels from books and movies, I get feels. It is so wonderful.
And whoever was talking about dreams (it seems days ago, because of how quickly this topic has gone!!)—aren’t the worst kind of dreams the ones where you try to scream and can’t? After we watched Darby O’Gill and the Little People years ago, I had nightmares about the banshee for the longest time. (Mom didn’t remember about the banshee when she let us watch it. 😉 ) It would grab me and take me away into a dark closet, and I would try and try and try to scream, but it would never make a noise.
@Daeus I agree so much with what you’ve said about emotions and logic. And you, @SleepwalkingMK. Very true. And oh dear, Daeus, I’ve been pronouncing your name wrong for…a long time. 😛
Oh, and this— I sound open minded even though I’m not… but I am very open minded… but I’m not… but I am! Ugh! —I know so. exactly. what you mean.
@Dragon-Snapper Isn’t the MBTI stuff fascinating? It’s quite fun once you get the hang of it. I can hardly encounter anyone real or fictional for longer than two minutes now without mentally typing them. That includes complete strangers—like people in parking lots who I can only see. It’s quite fun. And it’s Kate’s doing, too. She got me interested. 😉
@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise If you’ll allow the observation, I can definitely see why you’ve scored F (even F Assertive) on your test. From watching you online (especially on @Writefury’s blog—I don’t have a commenting account there, but I follow Blank Mastermind. Rosey, it is SO AWESOME! I love it too much. Dallasdallasdallas—oh well, you get the point. 😉 Wolfy’s not half bad either. And all the stuffs…yeah, it’s just too good. You write well. But Corissa, you seem very much a Feeler by the way you obsess in those comments. I’m a Feeler, and how you comment is similar to how I would. 😀 I just don’t think Thinkers get so enthusiastic on the outside about stuff. Correct me if I’m wrong, @Hope, @Jess.), that’s the larger impression I’ve got. I can see T as well though. Nothin’ wrong with being a hybrid. 😀 I’m an ISFJ ENFJ mix.
@Anne-of-Lothlorien You definitely sound like an ENFP. 😀 I’m so sorry you only have internet access one day of the week! It’s so fun having you one here.And yes, it’s really fun watching @Kate-Flournoy write. Seeing if her expression is serious, amused, or one of her characters’, and guessing the nature and characters of her scene. When I looked over at you last night when you were doing that scene with Egann, Kate, I kid you not, you had the remains of a nasty smile on your face. 😀
I would recommend no kidnappings, by the way girls. I have access to this person, so I can video her for you. 😉 OK, just kidding. Surely you know how embarrassing it is to be seen doing that sort of thing?? She told me she yells her characters’ animated arguments up there sometimes, and she almost had someone come in once while she was doing it, and seriously freaked out. You wouldn’t want to freak her out now, would you?? How unkind, really. *gives severe look*Lessee…that may or may not have been everything I wanted to address.
You guys are all so fun!! I love all this crazy stuff!And I think something may be being weird with the italics in this post, so sorry if it is. :\
When it comes to logic, I always think I’m right and it is impossible to offend me because you’re wrong and I should be concerned about you, not myself
@Daeus thank you for summing up my life in one sentence. *hysterical laughter* Okay, I may be a little more sensitive than that, but when it comes to logic, I know when I’m right and if you don’t think I am… too bad. A lot of what you and @Dragon-Snapper said about ENFJ open-mindedness applies to me too, though. Just… yeah. It’s complicated.I think being unwilling to share our work is just an artist thing. I won’t go off on a long tirade here (don’t worry, @Anne-of-Lothlorien 😉 ), but all four empaths (iNtuitive Feelers, guys— the NF types) struggle with this especially. They’re just so intense and rich and happy in their colorful world, they hate to let anyone they don’t implicitly trust inside because they might mess it up with their disapproval.
Anne, that was quite a writerly dump you gave us there. XD I can definitely see how you’re an ENFP. *nods wisely* Um… Frances? That’s all I can think of…
And @Daeus… *gulp* I have also been pronouncing your name wrong.
@Emma-Flournoy *facepalm* I didn’t mean to smile nastily… honest I didn’t. I can’t help it. I told you— I’m not me when I’m writing. I’m the character. So you can’t hold me responsible for the faces they make. 😛Whew, this topic is fast-paced.
I know, @Kate-Flournoy. I don’t fault you for it, I just enjoy it. 😀
@Anne-of-Lothlorien is your name Jessie/Jesse? Or Marian/Marion? Or Danielle/Daniel?@kate-flournoy Really? *laugs* was it Dee-us? D-s? Day-us?
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
@Daeus Dayus. 😛
@kate-flournoy Well, that’s the closest wrong one. And anyways, I don’t think there is an official pronunciation. I’ve never even asked my parents how to pronounce it, I just realized one day that I didn’t always pronounce my own name the same way, so I decided on what sounded best to me. Even my on family will pronounce it both ways, though I think they tend towards my way.
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
@Daeus So it’s Daa-us, or Dau-us?

I go away for a few hours and another page! AHH! 🙂
@Kate-flournoy Yes that is exactly how I feel, and I do think it is especially hard for NFs. I generally only share snippets of my writing life here and there to a few friends, but I have recently been opening up to one of my close friends (we carpool to Cedarville University three times a week, so its a good time to talk). She is a good listener and helps me solve problems in my stories, though it is still hard to open up about them, even though she is really good about it.
Another question for another INFP 🙂 , do you ever find yourself giving almost everyone the benefit of the doubt?
Oh, and I liked what you said about how Feelers and Thinkers processes information, either through the head or heart. It makes sense because I am not really emotional or ruled by my emotions, but have a strong empathy for people. I was surprised to be categorized as a feeler.
@anne-of-lothlorien
I multitask too, but I can’t handle two conversations at a time, which makes it a problem in a crowd of people where everyone is talking at once. I guess that’s where that extravert comes in for you. 🙂
(About Wingfeather, Rudric was sad, but I think the only one I really cried was Janner. That was awful.)I sound open minded even though I’m not… but I am very open minded… but I’m not… but I am!
In that aspect you are just like the friend I referenced above. like exactly. 🙂
(I’ve been mispronouncing your name in my mind as well. whoops.)@emma-flournoy I think Daa-us is right, though I’m not positive since you could pronounce it different ways, but my first guess of what you meant lines up with the correct pronunciation.
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
134 posts… wow. I do believe you’ve hit gold with this thread, @dragon-snapper. 😛 😀
@jess Quaker Haven is in Syracuse, IN. It’s really awesome- if anyone on here can ever come when we go, you’d be more than welcome. It’s generally the first or third week of August when we go, I believe. I’m sure I’ll mention it when we get there. 😀
@emma-flournoy ENFJ it is then! 😉 Although I don’t think I act quite so obsessive in real life… but it’s so much fun to be goofy like that online. And so much easier to type stuff like that than say it out loud… 😛 🙂And yes, Blank Mastermind is the best serial story EVER!!! 😀 😀 😀 Thursday’s are the best now. 😉 😀
And don’t worry, if we kidnap @kate-flournoy we’ll kidnap you too. 😉 Are you leery of swimming as well? Not that that’s a bad thing… it isn’t. It’s just something that could one day prove deadly if not corrected, ya know? 😉
Oh, and we wouldn’t really plant hidden cameras, right @hope? 😉 It is so much fun to tease though… and you have to admit, it would be amusing. 😀
I have no idea what I do when I’m writing. I’m generally alone in my room or in the basement, so no one really ever observes me. Oh boy- that sounds like something at a zoo. “And our newest exhibit in the primate section is the writer section. Please do not feed them while they are at work, as some have proven quite vicious. Simply sit back and be entertained! Enjoy the show folks!”
That’s just wrong. X)
@winter-rose SSSHHHHHHHHH!!! THEY HAVEN’T FINISHED WINGFEATHER YET!!!
Anne, look far, far away… don’t come anywhere near here until you’re done with that book.
Okay, I’m just curious: was anyone on here saying @Daeus’s name correctly? Or were we all saying it Dayus? 😛 🙂
Oh yes, and no one’s guessed @anne-of-lothlorien’s name yet. I’ll ask her later if I can give ya’ll a hint. 😉
