Your personality type is ESFJ.


Wow, I'm in some kind of minority around here.

At least I'm not The Guardian. Must be lonely...

My God, I love a good arguement. It's one of my favorite pastimes. I always did like Alexander the Great. I also get to be lumped in with Weird Al, George Carlin, Garfield the Cat, Q, Bugs Bunny and Thomas Edison. Sweet.

I find it fascinating to see how different the test results are as you change and grow. Does anybody have any stories about that? Or have your results really be consistent through out?

I have taken MBTI tests quite a few times over the past fifteen years or so. And I find that my result on T-J depends on my mood. When depressed I come out as perceiving, when hypomanic I come out as judging.

My scores on the other axes have tended to moderate over time (I used to be more than 100% Thinking), but I do not think that this really reflects a change in my type. Many of the questions are about actual behaviour, and my behaviour has changed as a result of change in circumstances and deliberate practical decisions based on T-type reasons.

Well, to be completely honest, yes. If I'd taken this test about a year or so ago I'd have come off as something like:

Introverted (I) 99% Extraverted (E) 1%
Sensing (S) 70% Intuitive (N) 30%
Thinking (T) 95% Feeling (F) 5%
Judging (J) 80% Perceiving (P) 20%

I.E. I was generally a self-absorbed bastard who gave NO semblance of a damn about enyone else, since they were all idiots in my eyes.

Hmm.

"Intraverted" doesn't mean "self-absorbed". (And to correct another misapprehension, it doesn't mean "shy and unconfident" either. I am a loud, brash, confident intravert.) An extravert prefers dealing with concrete things in the physical world. An intravert prefers dealing with ideas and abstractions. It is perfectly possible (and not particularly uncommon) for an extravert to be an arrogant, heartless clod, filled with contempt and hatred.

Intraverts are more like to care for Mankind than for individual people. And Thinkers can be philanthropists: they just care more about whether policies and programs work well than whether they look good. And Judging (in this sense) doesn't make you judgemental, it means that you prefer to exercise your decision-making process (Thinking) rather than your perceptual process (Sensing).

In short, an ISTP is not the same as a "self-absorbed bastard who [gives] NO semblance of a damn about [a]nyone else, since they [are] all idiots in [his or her] eyes."

ISTP = Mechanic...

Agback:

You have to admit, though, that Angcuru, "the Mechanic" sounds awfully like a name for a mafia hitman.

 

[Greyhawk_DM]

Here are my results....lol

Your personality type is INFP.

Introverted (I) 82% Extraverted (E) 18%
Intuitive (N) 73% Sensing (S) 27%
Feeling (F) 70% Thinking (T) 30%
Perceiving (P) 73% Judging (J) 27%

 

[Angcuru]

"Intraverted" doesn't mean "self-absorbed".....etc. etc.

True, but the way I was during that phase does fall under the category of ISTJ, not that all ISTJ-s feel the same way I did.

You explain your point well, but it wasn't very necessary.

Prom night is less than two months away and I have yet to tell her how I feel. Goddammit.).

<SNIP>

*sigh*

For god's sake man! DO NOT tell her how you feel! Just ask her to the prom. If that goes anywhere good consider sharing, but ask her out before someone else does!

See what happens when you're the only Doer on the board?
