Because frankly, you can always use another INTP

[Chill]

I'm INTP'er from Connecticut. Raised here, now going to college here. I'm a freshman. Ummm, crap. I'm not sure what else I'm supposed put here. Time to bullshit... As a career I want to be a Game Designer, but I don't know what I want to major in. My favorite subjects are Science/History, I guess. Though really, I can't really say I have a least favorite subject. Actually, I don't really put forth much effort in any subject so whatever. (accidentally getting good grades is one of the most peculiar feelings in the world). My roommate is a ISTJ. and I'm pretty sure my dad is an INFP and my mom is an ESTJ.

Yay for college freshmen. Game designer does sound like a fun job...
Oh, and hi.

[Chill]

Yeah, it does. And it's one of those profession where being a jack-of-all-trades is actually beneficial.

There's a book you should look into reading... it's called "Masters of Doom" , and it tells the story of the birth of id and the creation of the Doom phenomonon and all that stuff. Really interesting stuff.

What college are you going to for game design? im headed to UAT in jan :)

[Chill]

I'm at UCONN right now, and they don't really have a Game Design program. I guess that's why I have trouble picking out a major.

INFP dad and ESTJ mom - interesting couple!

Yeah, I should really write a series of articles because frankly, its amazing to see them together. Sometimes, I swear, they are complete opposites in all things.

Don't refrain from elaborating around here if the urge so finds you.

This school? http://www.uat.edu/

If so, here's an interesting fact about, of course, me:

I've only probably ever really hated 2 people in my life. One of them was an intern from the UAT I linked to. Everytime I looked at him I wanted to knock out his teeth. And then he would talk, and his voice made me want to take an icepick to my ears, if not my brain. He was the most arrogant, ignorant person I had ever met (the kind of guy that thinks he knows what's going on but really has no clue) and was offensive to boot.

I'd say "watch out" for him but I think he's graduating this December, so you're in the clear.


Anyways, welcome Chill. :)

Who was the other?

[int]

Same personality, uglier guy. He was a student co-worker at the helpdesk I worked at through college. Luckily I only dealt with him for a semester before I left. And I'm thankful I didn't have to train him.

His first impression was when he pulled up to me to ask a question. He put his feet on my desk and started talking about his programming class, while a user was left on hold. He was also a close talker and smelled funny. He liked to talk about how he came from the streets. He was from the suburbs. The good ones. And he was even more offensive (to the point where in one week 3 girls had already complained about his remarks, including 1 customer).
