Thread for things that blew your mind today.

Seems I scored an ISTJ type.

Says im:
responsible, planner, private, loner tendencies, perfectionist, organized, detail oriented, organized, would rather be friendless than jobless, realistic, observer, clean, focused, does not talk about feelings, finisher, punctual, private, does not appreciate strangeness, not adventurous, not spontaneous, follows the rules, dutiful, avoids mistakes, conventional, likes solitude, insensitive to the hardships of others, prepared, anti-tattoos, things rules are important, cautious, security seeking, prepares for worst case scenarios, logical, analytical, does not accept apologies easily, hard working

Kind of funny how some, maybe even many of the traits are spot on yet some others are so far off base.

As for the prof :
data analyst, scientist, researcher, engineer, financial planner, statistician, office worker, government employee, lab technician, nuclear engineer, office manager, biomedical engineer, account manager, ceo, investment banker, analyst, academic, systems analyst, pharmacy technician, network admin, genetics researcher, research assistant, strategist

That was almost spot on.

Thanks for the link , these are interesting to take.

Are you awake? That's lame. I'm working. Work is my excuse. WHAT IS YOUR EXCUSE. :-P

I WAS GIVING BIRTH TO A MACHINE GUN.

There needs to be a serious face emoticon.

It all depends on how strong you are in a particular axis. I'm a strong NTj, with a middling i, which means I can sometimes be E but usually revert back to i relatively quickly.

The iNTj profile pretty much is me. It's super scary.

In Costa this afternoon some guys massive ear stretch ring broke and his ear flopped down into a weird side-of-face-vagina which was funny until the fucking smell came.
I swear to God it was the most awful thing ever. Like sick, cheese and cancer all rolled into one smell.

Interesting.

Here's the personality tests if anyone else is interested in killing some time.


http://www.similarminds.com/personality_types.html

ENFP

ENFP - "Journalist". Uncanny sense of the motivations of others. Life is an exciting drama. 8.1% of total population.

ENFP

outgoing, social, disorganized, easily talked into doing silly things, spontaneous, wild and crazy, acts without thinking, good at getting people to have fun, pleasure seeking, irresponsible, physically affectionate, risk taker, thrill seeker, likely to have or want a tattoo, adventurous, unprepared, attention seeking, hyperactive, irrational, loves crowds, rule breaker, prone to losing things, seductive, easily distracted, open, revealing, comfortable in unfamiliar situations, attracted to strange things, non punctual, likes to stand out, likes to try new things, fun seeker, unconventional, energetic, impulsive, empathetic, dangerous, loving, attachment prone, prone to fantasy
*the descriptions listed here are made up of personality items. people who scored high on this type scored higher on the above items compared to the average. (more info)

Favored careers:


performer, actor, entertainer, songwriter, musician, filmmaker, comedian, radio broadcaster/dj, some job related to theater/drama, poet, music journalist, work in fashion industry, singer, movie producer, playwright, bartender, comic book author, work in television, dancer, artist, record store owner, model, freelance artist, teacher (art, drama, music), writer, painter, massage therapist, costume designer, choreographer, make up artist


Nicely done. Given that I am a writer, that seems to fit. LOL, I've done or do almost all of these. How reckless of me. Now I want to be a massage therapist!

However, it is hard to take these tests when all my personalities fight to answer the questions....



Big 5 personality test:

Extroversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.

Orderliness results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly organized, neat, structured and restrained at the expense too often of flexibility, variety, spontaneity, and fun.

Emotional Stability results were medium which suggests you are moderately relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

Accommodation results were high which suggests you are overly kind natured, trusting, and helpful at the expense too often of your own individual development (martyr complex).

Inquisitiveness results were high which suggests you are very intellectual, curious, imaginative but possibly not very practical.

ESTP - "Promotor". Action! When present, things begin to happen. Fiercely competitive. Entrepreneur. Often uses shock effect to get attention. Negotiator par excellence. 4.3% of total population.

Extroverted (E) 54.17% Introverted (I) 45.83%
Sensing (S) 66.67% Intuitive (N) 33.33%
Thinking (T) 58.33% Feeling (F) 41.67%
Perceiving (P) 70.83% Judging (J) 29.17%

Traits:
content, emotionally stable, outgoing, social, group oriented, finisher, does not like to be alone, open, decisive, likes external praise, likes to be center of attention, frequently joking, adjusts easily, likes crowds, self confident, neutral moods, good at getting people to have fun, disorganized, messy, talented at presentation, not easily annoyed, does not like to be alone, enjoys crude jokes, likes to lead, likes sports, more likely to come off as masculine, risk taker, tends to dominate conversations, fearless, can handle criticism, hard to discourage

I hate sports, I am pretty easily annoyed, and I enjoy the hell out of being alone. The rest of it ranges from definitely me, to more-or-less me. The bit about liking external praise and wanting to be the center of attention definitely has me pegged. The competitive thing from the initial summary too - so I guess that means not only do I need to win, but I then need everyone else to tell me how awesome I was when I won? Wow. That sounds pretty self-centered and shitty, actually. True, but still shitty.


Just for giggles, I looked up ISFP, since the E/I and T/F were reasonably close to 50% for me. Holy hell, talk about a miserable person. Traits:

disorganized, timid, prone to discouragement, socially uncomfortable, does not like leadership, suggestible, not self confident, not aggressive, lower energy, fearful, anxious, easily distracted, prone to discontentment, guarded, not confrontational, prone to longing for a stabilizing relationship, can be overwhelmed by unpleasant feelings, easily disturbed, fears drawing attention to self, prone to confusion, private, second guesses self, prone to quitting, underachiever, fears rejection in relationships, emotionally moody, prone to sadness, dislikes change, indecisive, modest, doubting, prone to laziness

Liagala,

I think the CIA fighter pilot would work!

[Liagala]

Your type is: ESTJ

organized, group oriented, focused, conventional, leader, emotionally stable, anal, attention seeking, planner, realistic, fearless, responsible, finisher, decisive, norm following, respects authority, punctual, hard working, stiff, self confident, thinks rules and regulations are important, follows the rules, clean, outgoing, social, content, does not like being alone, normal, regular, does not like weird or strange people / things - intolerant of differences, strict, disciplined, aggressive, assertive, content, happy, proper, formal, strict with self, meticulous, strong sense of purpose

See guys? Rojo likes anal. But she doesn't like weird or strange things. That is so totally accurate.

Liagala,

I think the CIA fighter pilot would work!

A spy. With a plane. That has big guns on it. Hell yeah!

Edit: I'm pretty sure every one of the careers you bolded in your results were on my "disfavored" list. I find that amusing for some reason.

[Bobmuhthol]

Pretty sure they make up the job things to make you feel good about yourself. I'm an INTJ, and needless to say, they don't tell you the negatives so much of personality types.

omg I'm an INTJ!
