Meyers Brigs Personalty Types
I wonder what sorts of personally types are on this forum. Mine is INTP "The Thinker".

Due to my young age as of present, I have always known that my personality type may just be subject to change. As such more recent tests have shown me to be a INTJ or "Mastermind" or "Scientist". To compliment this I also researched it through Wikipedia, and found the description to suite me more than the previously ascribed INTP. It describes that the two are EXTREMELY similar in that both do not really respect the current systems and constantly refer to the maxim "Does it Work?" although INTP's are more likely to try and change or live with the current system while INTJ's are more likely to create new systems (leading to some calling us "System Builders"). To put it another way, INTJ's would begin the revolution and INTP's would continue and advance it. It also says that INTJ's make up less than 1% of the main-stream population, it does not say for INTP's although one can only assume that it is in a similar small margin. Well, I am a minority AGAIN and good for it. It seems the rest of humanity are a bunch of neurotics. It also ascribes that INTJ would have problems with interpersonal relationships particularly romantic ones as we want people to "Make Sense" (don't we all, well I do :wink:). I also took the same Internet test and answered in reverse and found the Anti-Me, ESFP. Instead of recommending carriers in Computer Science, Natural Science, and Information Handling it said that I should take a carrier in either Marketing, Hairdressing, or Fashion Peddling. YUCK! :roll: Of course there is something amusing about the Wikipedia and main-stream descriptions for the personality types, they all say positive things about people. According to them, every one is intelligent and practical and logical (even thought there are probably people out there we would be OFFENDED by being called that). It also says that everyone either has a chance at Engineering, Marketing, or Management, how come none of them are supposed to be Floor Washers, or WalMart Greeters? Well of course if they did not always compliment people no one would take the tests seriously, no one likes to be insulted. Though as such one should not fully trust the tests, particularly Internet ones. Instead take the test as a guide, then read up on the type and ascribe yourself to it and also get others to read and see if they describe you as such. Sorry for the psychology rant, WAIT! I am the moderator! I can post whatever I want! FREE $(*#(. DAMN! BEEN CENSORED! :lol: It also said something along the lines that INTJ's are closer to "Born Leaders" hmm... does that mean I can train an army of evil minions? I'm listening! HE HE HE HA! (Trying to imitate Caleb from Blood) Also it claimed that although we come of as distant and reserved our tendency to crack witticisms makes us charming (when others try they come off as corny, or is that just Star Trek?), they don't seem to note that we don't care what people think in the first place. HE HE HE HA! Though another thing you must consider about the personality types is that although the tests dish out one type for you, those are only your primary traits. We all share subordinate traits of other personality types, such as from me are INTP traits and that of another type, I forget its lettering but I remember its title the "Healer", I probably also have traits from others.
