Oh God!
Or Oh god!
Are you people still here?
Asking "Where's all the people besides the 4's and 5's"
Don't you all know 4's are here because they want to talk about themselves?They also have 2 other pages on this site for doing just that.
All the 5's are here because they want to talk about their theories. Some of them want to test the water and the rest want to blow them out of it. There is really nobody else, except for maybe a few geriatric 8's who can't catch anyone to bully except on the World Wide Web.
And a trickle of sixes with their obsessions.
I'm a FIVE who has come on here and spat out MY stuff on occasions, defying all the RETiring 5 nonsense. Why should anybody need to be RETIRING given total anonimity.
The best stuff I have learnt from this site comes out when people break the rules.
My first Big LEarn came from a flame by Perceiver on ( who, Tal or someone? about 2 years ago.)
Saying "Bloody atheistic 5's".
Good obs, Percy.
5's like me have no absolute standard. No bottom line. Because further investigation may always shed a new light. We don't believe, because we want to know.
Most other types don't hang around a place like this.
This is never going to become the UNITED NATIONS of the ENNEAGRAM. Why?
Because 1's are too busy 1ing.
2's are too busy 2ing.
3's are too busy 3ing
etc.
Only the self obsessed will come here and stay.
I often come by here and read the stuff that's going on. And don't post anything because it's all boring shit.
If the people who have the deepest insight into the human psyche, ie the followers of the Enneagram, haven't really got anything interesting to say,
that's pretty sad.
Those GREAT OBScUre HOLY FIRST UNDERSTanders of what it's ALL abOUT surely didn't envisage the drivel we post here.
YES, Yes Yes, this is my first posting in a couple of months, and yes, of course, it isn't going anywhere anyway.
I'm abandoning my quest for wisdom and knowledge here. Sorry folks, you've been nice on occasion, and there's been the odd sparkle of genius, I know you're all just Saturday Supermarket people like myself, and I never really expected to find a GURU here, despite the valiant efforts of Johnny Cúig and others.
It might have helped if I wasn't drunk most of the time I came on here, and I admit that I fell in love with Tiggy.
I love you Tiggy.
Didn't you all?
You are a rotten bunch of ordinary nice people in the main.
Here is a 5 psyche split wide open.
See, I'm just a human being, and I'm offering my mind to science. I hate big groups of people, but you are OK because you don't really exist. Anything you ever wanted to know about the paranoid 5, the most private person, ask it now, or forever hold your peace. I promise to do my best to answer, but you must understand that questions hurt me just in themselves, and that it takes me TIME to give you good answers.

PS This posting isn't any more stupid than the last 500.
