The type of introversion I was referring to is found most commonly in INTJ people(and you sir most likely are one!). Yep, and my T preference is 55.

And it was like traveling to a different world the times I went to south Georgia and out of state by car. There's a webcomic I read, and the author based in the deep south, described going to a comic convention in Portland Oregon as trave

Ah yes, I had very same experience with Americans when I was still living in Europe. You are right, heavy selection bias it is, any American who gets on a plane and happily visit a foreign country, especially an expensive one, is not exactl

Oh for god's sake I've replied to alike a dozen places in this thread, I am giving up and this will be my last. I am an introvert. And I've always been very assertive, confident and certain, in fact in my younger days I was kind of a dick.

I really hate the implication that being an introvert means you are not as good at interviews or HR type networking. I am an introvert. I have a huge professional network. How? Simply by being nice to people and caring to build a network! A

By all popular accounts I was extremely "introverted" when I was younger. Having made a conscious decision to change certain aspects of my life, I am now far more balanced... I'm guessing your level of introversion has not changed one bit

A LOT of people have fought very hard for campaign finance reform over the past 20 years I can remember. The result is more money in politics than ever. Supporting campaign finance reform will do nothing. We tried that over decades, the sup

I am honestly curious if the ability to go to sleep almost instantly, even if you are woken up in the middle of the night, is purely genetic? Or perhaps it's a combination of habits and fitness? Or could be a symptom of something bad, like

Same 4-6 hrs sleep pattern here, and recently I too have suddenly started to forget simple things like how words I use every day are spelled. Yet I can't seem to be able to consistently force myself to be in bed early enough.
