You know you're an INTP when...

You need a new laptop so you decide to really cut down on all extraneous spending. You're already frugal and you already own more than you need so this shouldn't be a problem.

See, that's one thing I do try to limit. It bugs me if I have a bunch of unread books. It feels.... dishonest, almost. Unless I'm legitimately planning to read them or if it's a reference book.

But... Now that I have a kid and he's learning to read... there's nothing wrong with building a library of reference books and novels that might interest him...
