#12Obviously an abundance of NTs here, but Myers-Briggs ENTP seems the archetypal entrepreneur.
Yeah... I'm an ENTP on the Myers-Briggs but just barely am an E/P whereas I am solidly an NT.

#13I'm pretty extroverted in real life, it helps if the people I'm with are interesting, but not a requirement. I'm probably more introverted online, oddly enough.

#14I'm basically a loner who likes being in a crowd when I have to do it. I find that I'm at my most productive on narrowly focused technical projects when people leave me alone, but I'm happiest and the most balanced and effective on a broad spectrum of issues when I'm "plugged in" to a larger group.

That's not true at all. Introverts are generally drained by social interaction and need serious alone time to recharge. Extroverts are the opposite and need the social interaction to recharge, being alone tends to bother them.

Social interaction can be interesting if it's actually interaction with interesting people. Unfortunately, what has come to be known as "social interaction" is the custom of getting a bunch of people in a room, stuffing them full of bad food and alcohol, and letting them talk about themselves for several hours. On the other hand, if it really is completely uninteresting to you, just get drunk, and suddenly that worth…
If I'm going to be doing chemically enhanced social interaction, my substance of choice is kratom. It's well suited to truly enhanced discussion, not just the louder discussion that alcohol helps with or the disjointed, randomly connected conversations you have on weed. Unfortunately, the only drugs I can buy in public places intended for shared social experiences are alcohol and caffeine. I'd love to start a legal d…
This has bounced between 0 and 1 points a couple times now... I realize this isn't about me promoting my own business, because that is something that definitely allowed and encouraged on this site. I would really like to engage in a discussion with whoever thinks that posts about drugs deserve to be modded down.

I like to hear the discussion on that one! (Still thinking it through myself)
