@hope Did she ever doubt it? 😀
Wait, does this mean I’m banned from your car if we go to the writing conference next year?! *gasps*
Although mom said she might want to take me and then go shopping with your mom while we’re at the conference, so it might not be too much of a problem anyway… 😀

@kate-flournoy HA! 😀 😀 😀
I’ve never been to a chiropractor, but my mom was sledding once, and another boy thought it would be funny to try and run into her sled with his own… until he accidently hit her in the neck with his shoulder. I guess it really messed her back up, and when she went to the chiropractor and told her story, the cause for…[Read more]

@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise My Mom now officially thinks you are insane. And that, @kate-flournoy, is hilarious.
I’ve never done anything like that. *shakes head wisely* I’ve only had my brother zip-tie my hands behind my back to see if I could break out of them. (I couldn’t and had to instruct him on how to cut them without cutting me.) I can…[Read more]

@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise Ha! Yes! I do that! Once I had my siblings tie me hand and foot to a chair with jump-ropes. It took me seven minutes and eighty-three seconds to wriggle out. They timed me. 😛
I’ve also had to go to the chiropractor before because I popped one hip out of joint choreographing a fight scene… 😀 And then the chiropractor…[Read more] -

@kate-flournoy Maybe it’s the website I took it on- I was taking it on a different one until I discovered 16 personalities, and every time I’ve taken it there I’ve scored ENFJ-A. So maybe I really am ENFJ… I don’t know. I give up for now; maybe I’ll try again in a few days. 😛 😉
But yeah, strange writerly things… I have this strange habit of…[Read more]

@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise don’t ask me. Must have been a glitch in the way you took the test or something. It’s okay. You’ll figure it out eventually. 😉
Yesss, back to strange writerly things… um… @Emma-Flournoy tells me she loves watching me write because I make the most horrible faces and she has fun trying to figure out what kind of scene…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Wait, so I’m dominantly ENFJ now? WHAT HAPPENED TO ENTJ?!?! *holds head in hands* I don’t think I can take much more of this. 😛
*goes back and reads the post that started it all*
A realization I had as a writer the other night is that it’s a bad idea to eat half a clove of raw garlic in one bite- yesss, preciousss, we’s likes it…[Read more]

@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise ohhhhhhhh, yes indeedy. Our apologies. The most emotional types aren’t necessarily the most frequent criers, though. The most emotional types are the four empaths— INFP, ENFP, ENFJ, INFJ— all the iNtuitive Feelers. NF types. Those are the most intensely emotional. But the INFP is really the only one with a reputation…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I didn’t mean that your -er- crying habits as you’ve so… so picturesquely put it- were bad, I just wasn’t sure which personality types were frequent cry-ers. Aaand… this is so far back in the conversation you probably missed it, so I’ll ask again: I was just starting to figure out the whole personality thing, but the last two…[Read more]

@Hope yeah, I guess I didn’t literally mean afraid— they just don’t like it. It frustrates them and breaks a hole in their world of graphs and lines and cold white building-blocks, though @Daeus just explained why that doesn’t have to be so… 😀
@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise what exactly do you need insight on? INFP’s crying habits? 😛 Well we’re…[Read more]

@jess Don’t! Spelling mistakes are sooo easy to make… and other kinds of mistakes can be funny. When I was little I thought the third commandment was “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God to Spain!” 😛 😀 So yeah, missionaries to Spain are off limits. Which is funny, since we have some friends who are missionaries to Spain… 😉

@sleepwalkingmk Alrighty then! Good night! 😉 (actually it’s still evening over here… where are you at again? But get some sleep before you answer. Seriously. Things on here get even crazier than normal when we have sleep deprived folk on board. 😉 )

@jess Yeah, it’s Corissa, not Corrisa. Two s’s, not two r’s. 😉
Hey, @kate-flournoy‘s an INFP, aren’t you? Does my memory serve me correctly? We need some insight over here! 😀

@jess Exactly. Of course, there’s a time and place where “breaking down” is perfectly fine. Funerals, weddings, even high-school graduations (there’s one fellow I know who cries every time he tries to give a speech when one of his kids graduates), those are times when it can be appropriate to cry (as long as you don’t completely lose control and…[Read more]

@sleepwalkingmk Ah, I see. I can’t imagine what my family would do to me if I used the same accent all the time. My dad says that “variety makes it bearable.” 😉
Yeah, fear of breaking down in public I think is generally just human- unless you want to be the center of attention, like some kind of variant of a hypochondriac or something. I don’t…[Read more]

People who act only on emotion and against all logic are bewildering.
@hope YEEEEEESSSS!!! I just don’t get it. I hate it when people do that in movies- I usually try to find some rational reason and grasp onto that because I don’t like to think that there are actually people out there who act purely based on emotion and entirely against logic.…[Read more]

Guysssssssssss *wails* I get home from church and get 38 emails…almost all of them from this thread. *pouts* I can’t keep up with you all.
And now, @Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise, @Kate-flournoy, @Jess, on to INTJs.
Kate is pretty much right. The logic. The suppressing emotions and not showing it because it’s ‘just’ a feeling and isn’t what…[Read more]
