Myers Briggs
Anyone ever do a Meyers Briggs personality test? I did one, I dunno, five or six years ago and was blown away at how accurate it was (I'm an INTJ, heavy on the I and T, more moderate on the others). The subject came up this morning talking with B, so I decided to do another one online (http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp) out of curiosity.The results this time were slightly more more moderate in all but introversion, but otherwise the personality type holds. So, anyone else tried it?

Re: Meyers Briggs
I've taken it several times and I always get INFP. Which, I guess describes me pretty well.
EDIT: Moderate on the I and the F.

Re: Meyers Briggs
I'm less than thrilled that it seems like all the famous INTJs are lunatics and assholes—Ayn Rand, Lenin, John Nash, the Unibomber. I suspect INTJs would hate spending time with each other (apart from not really liking spending time with others in the first place).

Most INFPs seem to be either fictional characters or highly romanticized historical personages (Galahad, Joan of Arc).Dr. Medulla wrote:I'm less than thrilled that it seems like all the famous INTJs are lunatics and assholes—Ayn Rand, Lenin, John Nash, the Unibomber.

I checked another site, got a lot of visionary authors and such. Suck it, serial killers.

Re: Meyers Briggs
So it's agreed: Flex and I must develop a system to exterminate all the sensitive dreamers and then just glare at each other from across the table.

Re: Meyers Briggs
I'm amused that so far there isn't a single extrovert. Way to not leave our parents' basements, folks …

Although not too heavy on the E. I would normaly tend to classify myself as an Introvert so I'm prett surprised by this.
The J part is not my fault though because most people are assholes.
