: : 1) It's both depressing and humorous when white people listen to rap.

: Why do you say that? Would you be depressed and gladdened if a black person listened to Celtic music? Would it sadden and amuse you to watch a Native American dance to a Lithuanian folk song?

: Rock and roll had African roots, too. Was Elvis depressing and humorous?

--Bart. Please don't say you understand anything about music, especially about the relatedness of styles.

: Global culture is becoming the norm. Peoples are no longer culturally segregated from one another.

--Forget my comment above. O_O!!

: The essence of a five is thought, not introversion. Deep thinking may be facilitated by introversion, but it's not necessary. Don't have fixed images of the characteristics of the various types; they can vary quite a bit.

--It has been repeated over and over again by various authors that fives get attached to their internal interprations of their observations of the world. Type-wise it's very hard to envision an extraverted Five. There might be some who behave extrovertedly, but just how could the main focus be anything than introverted, that's something I don't know.

: : 3) 157 IQ? Sorry, that online European IQ test doesn't count. But seriously, do you realize how RARE that is? What IQ test did you take?

: That's about 1 in 5,400. It's not impossibly rare, although it certainly is not common.

--Isn't that what Cory said? (Or meant, if you're inclined to point out he used different words)
