I don't really find playing alphabet soup with my personal identity to come up with a classification to bond with very much fun, but I'm just a bit curious as to what "mold" I fit into. I took only one of those tests online (can't remember the name, but it was used in some study and looked at least a little reputable). I came out an INTP, which after reading some descriptions seemed fair enough. I think most of these tests are a load of BS anyway. :banana:

Hmm, anyway here's a shot.

I like the "big picture". I hate details.

I really enjoy playing with abstract concepts (math, design, physics).

I really enjoy change. I see no problem reinventing the wheel because I believe that the journey is more important than the destination. I think right now I'm starting to develop wanderlust.

I bore extremely easily. Once I know something it's trivial. Repitition is death by 1000 lashes.

I consider myself a "learner". Learning new things is my favorite hobby.

Along with learning, I love teaching. Whenever I get the chance to teach someone something I feel like, "I discovered this great treasure and now I'm so excited to share it with you." It's one of the few experiences where I actually feel gratified. Likewise, I usually learn a lot myself by teaching.

I'm skeptical of everything. My favorite phrase is: assuming makes an ass out of u and me.

I am very hot or cold with people. I either get along with someone really well or we just don't click and I usually end up disliking them.

I find social situations to be very draining. I can take being around a lot of people fine, but not for a very long time. Usually, I just go home and lock myself up to recharge.

On the flip side, my job requires me to interact with people alot. Interestingly, after a meeting with clients at work I feel excited. Talking to clients is one of the few things that really rejuvinates me (on a professional level). Unless of course they are dicks, in which case I want to hurt cute little fluffy animals.

I can be funny if I'm in the mood. It's hot or cold as well. If I really want to get a laugh out of someone, I usually can (not the polite huh huh).

this is how I can figure out if someone is an N or S.

I have found that where I work, other people rarely rejuvinate me. usually it is more difficult if I need to gather requirements for a project or I need to try and communicate with someone else and it is important they have to understand me (so I end up having to repeating/rephrasing myself ..)

I kind of look at it like wavelengths or something. You're either on my wavelength or not.

It's funny though because I see absolutely no correlation between someone's wavelength (compared to mine) and any other quality.

gender, intelligence, profession, religious views, disposition or anything else. I find it puzzling.

I would think the obvious one to be disposition. Sometimes I just click with arrogant arseholes. Sometimes I don't. Sometimes I click with shy and distant; sometimes I don't.
