Myers Briggs

[Mimi]

You and the missuz are of the same tribe.

I never got higher than a C in math at school, though I'm shocked it wasn't much lower. I think it's my frustration with the learning process there that feeds my current distaste for numbers. I just read Marky's rundown and my eyes quite literally glazed over.

My wife is a mathphobe, plain and simple. She sees numbers and panics. She's proof to me that IQ tests, which rely heavily on math, are bullshit, because she ain't dumb.

I hate math.

And it hates all of us!

I believe this.

[Marky Dread]

You do take half the body and add it to the body. But I'm sure to be looking at the calculation in it's simplest form anything more complex and I'm out of here.

And your interpretation is almost certainly correct, if for no other reason than one of the answers being "it's a paradox of infinity."

I think the fish is a red herring.

You're awful.

I have standards to uphold you know.

Anyway after Heston's comment regarding KISS and Bowie's Berlin trilogy I think anything could be acceptable.

The fate of civilization depends on us not allowing Heston to set standards!

No argument here.

My INTJ results came up recently in conversation, which subsequently led me to this: https://introvertdear.com/news/intj-personality-signs/

There's plenty of valid criticism of personality tests, but this almost completely nails me.

I'm the thinking man's non intellectual. I'm very smart but not too clever. I'm a paradox wrapped up in a quandary.

2. …And competence makes you giddy

I don't believe this.

Giddy is not the word, no.

It's kind of a surreal experience to read through old threads.

For funsies, I went back and redid the test from the beginning of the page. Here are my results from then (2016):

INTJ

Strong I, moderate N & T, marginal/no preference J (I got 1%)

Here they are now:

ISFP
Introvert(34%) Sensing(1%) Feeling(25%) Perceiving(44%)

You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (34%)
You have marginal or no preference of Sensing over Intuition (1%)
You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (25%)
You have moderate preference of Perceiving over Judging (44%)

Interesting how things change.

[Mimi]

Just retook the test and my introversion level went down to 44%. Odd. I wonder if that has to do with the isolation of the panini.

INFJ
Introvert(44%) iNtuitive(38%) Feeling(53%) Judging(19%)
You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (44%)
You have moderate preference of Intuition over Sensing (38%)
You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (53%)
You have slight preference of Judging over Perceiving (19%)

The old me:

Introvert(78%) iNtuitive(25%) Feeling(25%) Judging(33%)

I'm up there with Aristophanes, Chaucer, and Goethe.

This is the first i'm seeing this.
So, I took the "questionnaire".
I had an issue with some of the questions in that some were a bit too generalized, like at least for me and the way I am/treat certain situations, I realize the test is a generic type of thing but for me those were answered with a "uncertain" and surely that will have an effect on my "classification".
I got INTJ.
What do I win?

Oh shit.
Chevy Chase?
Rudy Guiliani?
Orel Hershiser?
Hillary Clinton?

Um, I have to go.

Welcome to the asshole club! We also have Ayn Rand and Lenin.

Any club that would have me as a member is not really a club I should be in
After I read the whole synopsis of what it meant, some of it was true about me and some of it wasn't, lol. I wouldn't base any serious importance on the outcomes but it is kinda interesting in a dinner-table-with-great-friends-conversational way.
And to be fair, I have many times been called an asshole, often rightfully so.
Maybe this Jung isn't so far off after all.

For what it's worth, I'm also in the Doc club.
