Braintypes

Which one are you?

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

I'm actually quite amazed at the number of INTJ's. It is the rarest braintype, making up less than 2% of the entire population. Us INTJ's are quite quirky, with some interesting habits :(.

So, I just saw this version of my brain type... and it is frighteningly accurate. How depressing.

I took a different online test just now, and it came out to ISTJ this time, instead of ISTP. I have to say that all the parts about following rules is very accurate. O:) My mom has told me that I'm "too heavenly minded to be any earthly good," on occasions when I am GOING to go by the instructions, no matter what. For example, I won't take medicine before the next scheduled dose, even if it's just 30 minutes. :anxious:
The one word that best describes Inspectors is superdependable. Whether at home or at work, Inspectors are extraordinarily persevering and dutiful, particularly when it comes to keeping an eye on the people and products they are responsible for. In their quiet way, Inspectors see to it that rules are followed, laws are respected, and standards are upheld.

Inspectors (as much as ten percent of the general population) are the true guardians of institutions. They are patient with their work and with the procedures within an institution, although not always with the unauthorized behavior of some people in that institution. Responsible to the core, Inspectors like it when people know their duties, follow the guidelines, and operate within the rules. For their part, Inspectors will see to it that goods are examined and schedules are kept, that resources will be up to standards and delivered when and where they are supposed to be. And they would prefer that everyone be this dependable. Inspectors can be hard-nosed about the need for following the rules in the workplace, and do not hesitate to report irregularities to the proper authorities. Because of this they are often misjudged as being hard-hearted, or as having ice in their veins, for people fail to see their good intentions and their vulnerability to criticism. Also, because Inspectors usually make their inspections without much flourish or fanfare, the dedication they bring to their work can go unnoticed and unappreciated.

While not as talkative as Supervisor Guardians [ESTJs], Inspectors are still highly sociable, and are likely to be involved in community service organizations, such as Sunday School, Little League, or Boy and Girl Scouting, that transmit traditional values to the young. Like all Guardians, Inspectors hold dear their family social ceremonies-weddings, birthdays, and anniversaries - although they tend to be shy if the occasion becomes too large or too public. Generally speaking, Inspectors are not comfortable with anything that gets too fancy. Their words tend to be plain and down-to-earth, not showy or high-flown; their clothes are often simple and conservative rather than of the latest fashion; and their home and work environments are usually neat, orderly, and traditional, rather than trendy or ostentatious. As for personal property, they usually choose standard items over models loaded with features, and they often try to find classics and antiques - Inspectors prefer the old-fashioned to the newfangled every time.
Another description of ISTJ...

People tend to be multifaceted, so it's not uncommon for a person to relate to multiple brain types. I scored ISFJ, but I can also identify with ENTP.
"Strategizing Assistant"
concerned with others’ welfare; responsible, reserved, patient, practical, friendly, orderly, inquisitive regarding people, harm-avoiding; conscientious, thorough, loyal; service-oriented; gross motor skilled; precocious planner, imaginative, alert to possibilities; quick thinking; likes complexity; computer proficient; enjoys one-up-manship; enthusiastic, artistic, comedic, manipulative, spontaneous, entrepreneurial; logical abstraction skilled.

After musing on the subject, I do believe I find it completely logical for multiple INTJ's to be on the ToO. INTJ's are, in fact, quite introverted, and tend to be online most of the time to fulfill any (if they have any) desires to interact with other humans ;).

Wow, I got:
FCAR / ENFP "Motivator"

Does that sound like me? O:)

INTJ

I already knew that, though. I'm surprised how many INTJs there are :-s

Didn't we have some fun, though? Remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said, 'goodbye.' And you were like, 'no, wait.' And then I was all, 'we pretended we were going to murder you.' That was great...

I still stand as the only ENTP! \:D/ It doesn't surprise me whatsoever. After being around the ToOers in Virginia, I figured that most ToOers must be Introverts. :evillaugh: But, I am borderline NTP, which I find rather amusing. I must be quite versatile! \:D/

I concur entirely. I am also INTJ, and I'm amazed (as I have been saying) at how many fellow INTJ's there are on here. It shouldn't surprise me, however. Most INTJ's love to be online.

I, too, was surprised by all the fellow INTJs. It seems this place attracts personality types inversely to their normal societal probability. INTJs dominate the ToO! \:D/

I know what my sisters brain type is: FEIL/ESTJ. She is such a control freak my brain type is FEAL/ESFJ. I'm supposed to be sensitive to criticism and thoughtful to other people energetic and gross motor skilled? My mom says I have better fine motor skills. My teacher says that to I have the best cursive in the class.
