Out-of-the-blue confession meme

...Cy made me do it!

Not really. I just tend to half-offer something and then let people I like top me into it, because I want their attention. There, that was your free confession for the day.

I just have this unfortunate tendency to tell people things.

I kind of sympathize with number 9, myself.

I might have to try this myself. I bottle things up enough as it is, despite being the expressive emotional person I am, if that makes sense?

[schmot_gurl]

Yeah, I imagine a lot of people do. The world has far too many slightly sexist jokes.

...no, it doesn't. ^_^
Well, maybe it does - if you know you're very expressive so you bottle things up to prevent them from, idk, exploding or something?

[aquadyne]

Yeah. This particular person also makes numerous racist comments, but "they're stereotypes because they're true." I've tried reasoning with him before, but I don't know if it's gotten me anywhere.

Ahaha, maybe. That might be it ;) Oh, so I saw in Mia's journal a Myer-Briggs type in your comment...? OH THAT SOUNDS SO CREEPY. I just skimmed and saw it, I swear =P

I just find those personality quizzes interesting. Myer-Briggs never totally fit me like a glove, but I still squee when anyone else brings it up. 's a weird habit of mine, I guess.

first opportunity to use relevant icon!

Ugh. My coworker isn't that bad. He's mostly a reasonable person, although with a rather depressing sense of humor.

LOL, don't worry, that's not all that creepy comparing to all the stalking I've been doing... ^_^ Yes, personality quizzes are always interesting, and Myers-Briggs actually makes a decent amount of sense to me. What type are you, then? I'm somewhere between INTP and INTJ, depending on context, really. The first time I took it, I stumbled on an INTJ forum, and one quote from the intro stuck with me: "We demand that people make sense!". Yeah, that's me. Good luck with that, self. XDD

EPIC ICON <3

I always used to test as INFJ, but:

1. The J and the P are always almost in a near tie with each other, and
2. In the last few years I've become a lot more rational and focused on critical thinking, so sometimes that's enough to skew INFJ over to something else less emotionally oriented. I can't think of the other one I got recently, alas.

My result for the enneagram tested out freakishly accurate, though, and I'm a bit more attached to that than Myer Briggs. Ever taken it?

Hmm, I remember hearing of the enneagram but I don't think I ever found a reasonable-looking test for it. Do you have a link to one? I'd be curious to try.

Urban dictionary is my SAVIOR!

This has some--although many people believe it's best to read each type and decide what fits best yourself (I have a friend who tested one way but we realized he was totally another type). Usually, as much as I love personality tests, I treat them with a bit of skepticism, but when I looked up my type in depth, it was bizarre how much it fit.

The results on that site don't go too in depth; I know http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/ has detailed profiles for each one, well as probably a few other pages out there.

yes, it's one of my one-letter Firefox shortcuts

Hmm... I can't decide between 5 and 7 (my test result was 7, but I scored high on 5,7,8,9, and then I went and read all of them).

The Myers-Briggs system makes more intuitive sense to me - I guess because it's more... mathematical? Binary, at least. ;)

So, which enneagram type are you? I wonder how much they correlate - do the same M-B types also get the same enneagram results, and vice versa, or do they test completely different aspects?
