Is it acceptable to live a passive life?

I've not read any posts from you in a long time which werent just emotional discharge.

I hope you're better in time though and can discuss like everyone else.

1. I don't believe you. I think you're just saying that to take a condescending shot at me. This is exactly why I don't like you.

2. Even if you're not just saying it, don't hold your breath.

Its funny, I was about the post the same thing after having thought about it.

This is the evidence. You're instructing me on things that don't need to be said.

Plus you haven't actually said I'm wrong about you.

There's evidence of a lot of rationalisation going on Sprinkles, maybe I've not been around long enough to see whether or not you do this with everyone but you've pretty much attempted derails off topic a number of times, I've responded to you to see if it provides whatever you need to everyone can move on with the topic but I dont see it working. I did have you on ignore and took you off again about the time I did Skarecrow and a couple of others but I think I can safely put you back there again.

I dont know what problems you've got that you're trying to work out in the threads with me and I wish you good luck with them, like I've done before, the sorts of satisfaction you're liable to get from playing games and deploying scripts isnt going to be much when its someone who knows what you're up to.
 
If people want to better understand the direction of our society I recommend they read up on the ENTJ type

Unless they have managed to curb such impulses they are basically insensitive people who beleive they should weild power over other people....they have a 'will to power'

If you want to find the people at the forefront of the move to use technology to control humanity and the relentless push towards 'progress' driven with an almost goose-stepping type gusto i would suggest you research the ENTJ type

Somehow they seem to stay off the radar a lot but i think its because of the power they weild in the various corporations that control the media...they seem to like picking fights with INFJ's and associated feeling types

People need to be paying more attention to the ENTJ type imo because their role in our current society is not to be under estimated

Trying to give me what you think I need is a big mistake. Don't do it.

Here's my advice. If you think I'm playing games, then don't get involved. If you overthink me, I will sense it and turn on you.

OH NO!
 

Haha glad you chimed in. Living proof of my mostly passive nature. When's the last time I picked a fight with you?

You see, I don't with most people. Lark is one of the exceptions, who somehow came to think is a rule.
 
so you been watching the footy?

oh yeah great game....the guy just put his foot out and there it was in the back of the net....gooooooooaaaaaaaalllllll!

nah not really ;)
 
The reality though is that thinking about those pop philosophies for any length of time would reveal them to be pretty terrible, possessing no past to learn from, no memory, isnt attractive, having no future to hope for or plan for or work towards isnt attractive either.

This isn't how it works, though I'd agree there's nothing attractive about pursuing the truth of ourselves or the reality we live in.

you need treatment muir. Seriously!

You'd love that wouldn't you?

According to you people who think outside the box should be given 'treatment' or made to serve in the military

lol

Lets have a look at the ENTJ type:

http://www.personalitypage.com/ENTJ.html

[h=1]The Executive[/h]
As an ENTJ, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you deal with things rationally and logically. Your secondary mode is internal, where you take things in primarily via your intuition.
ENTJs are natural born leaders. They live in a world of possibilities where they see all sorts challenges to be surmounted, and they want to be the ones responsible for surmounting them. They have a drive for leadership, which is well-served by their quickness to grasp complexities, their ability to absorb a large amount of impersonal information, and their quick and decisive judgments. They are "take charge" people.
ENTJs are very career-focused, and fit into the corporate world quite naturally. They are constantly scanning their environment for potential problems which they can turn into solutions. They generally see things from a long-range perspective, and are usually successful at identifying plans to turn problems around - especially problems of a corporate nature. ENTJs are usually successful in the business world, because they are so driven to leadership. They're tireless in their efforts on the job, and driven to visualize where an organization is headed. For these reasons, they are natural corporate leaders.
There is not much room for error in the world of the ENTJ. They dislike to see mistakes repeated, and have no patience with inefficiency. They may become quite harsh when their patience is tried in these respects, because they are not naturally tuned in to people's feelings, and more than likely don't believe that they should tailor their judgments in consideration for people's feelings. ENTJs, like many types, have difficulty seeing things from outside their own perspective. Unlike other types, ENTJs naturally have little patience with people who do not see things the same way as the ENTJ. The ENTJ needs to consciously work on recognizing the value of other people's opinions, as well as the value of being sensitive towards people's feelings. In the absence of this awareness, the ENTJ will be a forceful, intimidating and overbearing individual. This may be a real problem for the ENTJ, who may be deprived of important information and collaboration from others. In their personal world, it can make some ENTJs overbearing as spouses or parents.
The ENTJ has a tremendous amount of personal power and presence which will work for them as a force towards achieving their goals. However, this personal power is also an agent of alienation and self-aggrandizement, which the ENTJ would do well to avoid.
ENTJs are very forceful, decisive individuals. They make decisions quickly, and are quick to verbalize their opinions and decisions to the rest of the world. The ENTJ who has not developed their Intuition will make decisions too hastily, without understanding all of the issues and possible solutions. On the other hand, an ENTJ who has not developed their Thinking side will have difficulty applying logic to their insights, and will often make poor decisions. In that case, they may have brilliant ideas and insight into situations, but they may have little skill at determining how to act upon their understanding, or their actions may be inconsistent. An ENTJ who has developed in a generally less than ideal way may become dictatorial and abrasive - intrusively giving orders and direction without a sound reason for doing so, and without consideration for the people involved.
Although ENTJs are not naturally tuned into other people's feelings, these individuals frequently have very strong sentimental streaks. Often these sentiments are very powerful to the ENTJ, although they will likely hide it from general knowledge, believing the feelings to be a weakness. Because the world of feelings and values is not where the ENTJ naturally functions, they may sometimes make value judgments and hold onto submerged emotions which are ill-founded and inappropriate, and will cause them problems - sometimes rather serious problems.
ENTJs love to interact with people. As Extroverts, they're energized and stimulated primarily externally. There's nothing more enjoyable and satisfying to the ENTJ than having a lively, challenging conversation. They especially respect people who are able to stand up to the ENTJ, and argue persuasively for their point of view. There aren't too many people who will do so, however, because the ENTJ is a very forceful and dynamic presence who has a tremendous amount of self-confidence and excellent verbal communication skills. Even the most confident individuals may experience moments of self-doubt when debating a point with an ENTJ.
ENTJs want their home to be beautiful, well-furnished, and efficiently run. They're likely to place much emphasis on their children being well-educated and structured, to desire a congenial and devoted relationship with their spouse. At home, the ENTJ needs to be in charge as much as he or she does in their career. The ENTJ is likely best paired with someone who has a strong self-image, who is also a Thinking type. Because the ENTJ is primarily focused on their careers, some ENTJs have a problem with being constantly absent from home, physically or mentally.
The ENTJ has many gifts which make it possible for them to have a great deal of personal power, if they don't forget to remain balanced in their lives. They are assertive, innovative, long-range thinkers with an excellent ability to translate theories and possibilities into solid plans of action. They are usually tremendously forceful personalities, and have the tools to accomplish whatever goals they set out for.

LOL to the hating on the ENTJs.

I personally love INFJs I'm not interested in fighting with them, perhaps the ones I hit it off with are borderline F/T types or just balanced and well adjusted Feeling types but I tend to find that F types are pretty complimentary to T types.
 
You'd love that wouldn't you?

the only problem is that this description is a MBTI description, and MBTI descriptions are laughable.

Here is a low-key Socionics descriptions of ENTJs, one that shoudn't scare you too much of a "ENTJ new world order", as you like to make things.
By the way, I think all you INFJ vs ENTJ fantasies are for childrens, and with all your respect, you should grow up.

He seeks to work things out and understand them for himself. Goal-oriented, purposeful and tireless. Does not respect or accept authority of people who lead their lives according to the pleasure principle and strive to achieve the desired results without stress.

Working conditions

The incentive for this sociotype is the striving for uniqueness. His work should provide opportunities to be creative, to experiment and innovate. LIEs also love to learn everything that sooner or later may prove to be helpful to his project. Therefore, if you often send him to seminars, workshops, conferences, training courses and retraining, he will be satisfied and interested in his work. In working with representatives of this type, one should take into account their lack of love for the careful, routine work. Try to exclude it from the scope of his duties, as well as any work related to the painstaking filling out of the documents. In listening to risky proposals of LIE, one should exercise some caution and clarify whether there are sufficient resources in place for such activities and who will finance them. It is a good idea to also ask what kind of people are supporting him (often his entire "team" is he himself). If he urges you to act immediately, otherwise it will be too late - pay attention to this, because LIE has good sense for timeliness of action. However, act basing on the principle "measure seven times, cut once" as often the business activity of LIE is so large that can grow into pointless fussiness. People of this type tend to do a little bit more than what was expected of them, involving all those around him into a feverish hustle. If he gets excited, showing impatience and intolerance of those who work slower, this should be taken calmly and smoothly, in friendly manner showing understanding and support for his difficulties. And if you are also going to assist his endeavors, at the same time keeping him away from overly risky expenditures and actions, your productive interaction is guaranteed.

More often show care for your family, devote more of your personal time to them, make pleasant surprises for them, and try to delve into their problems.

Try to cultivate an aesthetic taste in yourself. Do not sacrifice your appearance even in the name of your projects and goals, which to you seem more important. Do not engage in extravagant antics. Try to be more sensitive when it comes to intimate topics - don't try to draw attention to yourself in this manner: others can misunderstand you. Unwittingly you can break the relaxed atmosphere of communication, placing yourself and your friends into an awkward position.

Your other problem lies in ambiguous humor and jokes that can not always be correctly interpreted and understood. Be tactful and modest in your statements. Do not seek to lift the mood of the people at any cost. Remember that not everyone likes the joking tone, and more so - irony and ridicule. Avoid excessive emotional familiarity in communication. Develop in yourself politeness and good manners. This will boost your self-esteem and instill greater level of respect that others have for you.

Don't seek confrontation over issues that are non-existent, unneeded and irrelevant. Through this you can lose respect of many people. Don't show your emotions too quickly. Don't let your actions run ahead of your thoughts. It is better to move away from the object of your irritation, and after some time, when you have clamed down and thought things thoroughly, express your decisions and opinions at the next meeting.
 
you need treatment muir. Seriously!

Regarding the subject, the Myth Of Sisyphus of Camus is a really good book that covers this subject somewhat.

Are you sure? I thought that was a meditation on suicide, a very good read though.

Hmmm, i've read a compilation of essays titled this way. Don't have the title of all of them, unfortunetly, but the subjects covered seemed connected with that question, suicide seemed pretty much connected with the actions of an individual and the effects upon the the concept of the absurd.
