Analyst: *Can't Figure Out a Problem*

Being misunderstood... and misunderstanding.

Analyst: Don't be such an idiot!

Person: See, this...this is hurtful!

Analyst: How is that hurtful?

Person: How is telling someone not to be an idiot hurtful?!?!

Analayst: Yeah. The world is full of idiots and me telling you to NOT be one, indicates that I think you have the potential to be a non idiot.

Analyst: *huff* It means stop acting like an idiot because I know you're not one. It's a sign of... something resembling... care...

The quote “Curiosity killed the cat - But satisfaction brought it back” should be the analysts motto.

First, NT’s are cats. Seriously. No explanation nessesary.

Second, when we need to know something, we NEED to know it. It kills us to not know.

Third, the satisfaction of finally learning/figuring what we needed/wanted to know is reviving. There’s nothing like it.
