38 Hilarious Posts for the Painfully Introverted

I finally took that Myers-Briggs personality test the other day after a lot of egging on from a friend of mine and it told me that I’m an INTJ which I guess means “Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Judging.”

Which makes sense to me. I’m pretty intuitive, especially when it comes to quickly realizing how bad I’ve screwed something up. I can’t stop myself from constant thinking, even if it’s about nothing in particular, and I’m always judging everyone.

But most of all, I am an introvert. Just as the people behind these posts clearly are.

39. Check it out

Please don’t bring attention to me, this is the opposite of what I wanted.

Self checkout is great for introverts until the machine breaks down and two employees have to come fix it while you wait.

It takes me about as much time to psych myself up for one anyway.

37. Pick me up

Oh, I’m sorry, you very clearly mistook the nature of this interaction.

The other day I went to a coffee shop. The barista was very nice, recalled the way I like my coffee, and chatted pleasantly about plans for the weekend. Clearly I can never go back there again #introvertproblems

36. Keep it cool

Ice makes drinks better and insulates the poles of our planet, let’s keep it around.
