I got 'em all right.

I accept the challenge.
Don't have time at the moment but I'll get to it when I'm in work tomoro ftw.

INTJ.

Mastermind. Wut.


That's what one of the links say, anyways. Also, I follow a plan, until I don't. Sounds like me all right.

Attachment 102439

It's all well and good, but I'm not sure I can attach credence to a test which prefer to spell extrovert as extravert :dabs:

idk, I had a gander at this http://typelogic.com/intj.html and it does sound a bit too familiar. The negative bits especially.

Yeah I suppose the ENFP page fits me pretty well, too.
Apart from the part where it says that these types often have to have their partner take care of all the financial aspects of life.

I duno, reminds me of horoscopes like, innit.

I know it's legit but it's hardly ever used.
It sounds cawkish.

Captain Wildchild. lulz.

ISTJ, whatevar that means.

Edit:
Famous people of your particular type
Herbert Hoover, Harry S. Truman, Kirk Douglas, Clint Eastwood, Greta Garbo

It clearly means you're like americans :o

I don't mince at all:snooty:

Welp, since that first page made me sound super-cool, I've decided it must be true.

Bo, we're personality type buddies! I'm an ISTJ too. Or rather 'a bitch' when it's a female. We're horrible :(

Manky - you and I are supposed to be sworn enemies :sneaky:

Snee - That fits with you actually - "

When it comes to their own areas of expertise -- and INTJs can have several -- they will be able to tell you almost immediately whether or not they can help you, and if so, how. INTJs know what they know, and perhaps still more importantly, they know what they

don't know."

What is the 'diagnosis' for the 20% of the population who point blank refuse to take tests because taking tests to them is an adherence to shite?

Suck my horns. I'm a Capricorn.

If you missed the irony, I'm going to kick the nearest object right in the cunt.

That can't be true, look:

Attachment 102446

I'm an INTJ.

famous people who are intj include: Isaac Newton, Niels Bohr, C. G. Jung, Michel de Montaigne, Michel Nostradamus, Ada Lovelace.

Well at least it wasn't Linda Lovelace. :yikes:

The first part of the definition form typelogic.com was quite funny:
To outsiders, INTJs may appear to project an aura of "definiteness", of self-confidence. This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less decisive, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature; its source lies in the specialized knowledge systems that most INTJs start building at an early age.

Me, arrogant? :blink:

Speak for yourself, ballbag, I'm as nice as a nice thing.

Actually speaking of arrogant, where are Darthy & MJ when you need them. :idunno:

I answered honestly and got this:

Attachment 102489

I'm not sure if I should be arrogantly proud or not. It says I could be a corporate lawyer or librarian, both sound like horrible careers to me. Then again, the Keirsey description of the architect seems to be quite flattering

They're called 'irritating'. They're the sorts of people who like to think they're special, delicate individual little flowers who regularly say and do things that have never been said or done in the history of the world ever. They're quite wrong though, they're just as mundane as everyone and everything else.

Taking a test like this isn't adhering to anything, it will probably just tell you what you deep down already know.

Look, this isn't astrology you muppet. It's based on the answers you give. You're just rejecting it because you're a shallow, vacuous ENFP with no need for deeper understandings :console:

In this case, serves as much of a point as an astrology reading doesn't it?

Does sound like you. You're not exactly the mindless follower type are you?

The outcome is similar. It's the purpose and method that's different.

When I said point, I meant it to include both outcome and purpose with no inclusion of method. Purpose is something that sits with the designer's context, but as far as an internet test goes... well...

I'm not rejecting it en masse, I'm embracing the parts that sound like me and disregarding the parts that don't.

Wait, how is it not like astrology.

Ah then no, it serves a different point to astrology. Astrology disempowers people by making them believe their futures and characters are set or pre-ordained by a higher power. This kind of test can empower people by making them confront and take responsibility for their character traits.

This is all because you got some ghey combo of letters, like manker, innit.

We can't all get to be masterminds :(

But my horoscope said that my personality type would be revealed to me today :idunno:

Next week; Squeams starts a thread on the real and actual health benefits associated with Feng Shui.

While Snee plots to take over the bored.

Damn internets tests.
I feel like Pinky to your Brain.

I appear to be an INTJ 78%, 75% 1% (1% FFS?) 33%.

"a very expressed introvert" (a contradiction of terms I would have thunk).

Presumably this means I am not mad?

You're cursing the 1 % rating, I'd have cause to believe you were mad.
