nnngh-worthy stuff and personality types
Hitting burnout and reaching a point where I annoy the fuck out of myself when a tinny little voice in my head goes "no one likes meeeee I suckkkkkkk and I will always suckkkkk please give me validationnnnnn". It's fucking annoying, let me tell you. It has a lot to do with my attempts to not kill myself with overwork and changing "write 6000 words this weekend" to "write this section of that 6000 word essay this weekend, and also do edits on your 5000 word Essay of Doom, and also edit your friend's thesis". The second one sounds like more work but I know it's less and I feel guilty even though I know I have like 2 more weekends to write that essay and I really shouldn't rush it while I still have doubts.
I hate my brain. A lot.
IN NICER/FUNNIER NEWS, I have been distracted by friends when they are doing personality types for themselves. And then I distracted myself with trying to personality-type Sean and Viggo- or at least, how I see them.
This is me: INTJ. (Also called 'The Scientist', which makes me wonder if I'm an anomaly since I can't do science well.)
INTJs live in the world of ideas and strategic planning. They value intelligence, knowledge, and competence, and typically have high standards in these regards, which they continuously strive to fulfill. To a somewhat lesser extent, they have similar expectations of others.
INTJs focus their energy on observing the world, and generating ideas and possibilities... Their mind constantly gathers information and makes associations about it... their primary interest is not understanding a concept, but rather applying that concept in a useful way. INTJs are driven to come to conclusions about ideas. Their need for closure and organization usually requires that they take some action.
This is so stupidly true that I am getting annoyed at a personality test for pinning me down so effectively. Seriously. My biggest problem with Literature as a discipline is that whenever I read a book, I'm less concerned with what they're doing than how they do it. I literally go "how do I write about this theme my own way?" For example, I'm less interested in the full, sprawling significance/concepts of silence than how I can actually use it in fic or fiction as a whole.
It's a very self-centered kind of thinking, honestly. When I grasp a concept, I'm less interested in finding out every nuance of it than to make new nuances of my own. It annoys my professors a lot, especially when I do historical literature. Might be why my English Renaissance professor is usually annoyed with me.
INTJs spend a lot of time inside their own minds, and may have little interest in the other people's thoughts or feelings. Unless their Feeling side is developed, they may have problems giving other people the level of intimacy that is needed. Unless their Sensing side is developed, they may have a tendency to ignore details which are necessary for implementing their ideas.
There is something extremely disturbing when a piece of text that's supposed to apply to a huge group of people (less than 2% of the population; apparently INTJ is one of the rarest types in the world, but that's still millions) just manages to pin me down so very, very effectively.
I have to say though, I am not empathic at all, but I can understand all the reasons why a person might act a certain way intuitively. And then I just shrug and not get upset about it. It's them, I'm me, it's not their fault, it's not mine, whatever.
Consequently, they are quick to express judgments. Often they have very evolved intuitions, and are convinced that they are right about things. Unless they complement their intuitive understanding with a well-developed ability to express their insights, they may find themselves frequently misunderstood. In these cases, INTJs tend to blame misunderstandings on the limitations of the other party, rather than on their own difficulty in expressing themselves.
THIS IS ME AND SOME OF MY PROFESSORS AND CLASSMATES. SERIOUSLY.
Other people may have a difficult time understanding an INTJ. They may see them as aloof and reserved. Indeed, the INTJ is not overly demonstrative of their affections, and is likely to not give as much praise or positive support as others may need or desire. That doesn't mean that he or she doesn't truly have affection or regard for others, they simply do not typically feel the need to express it.
NOPE.
On a less self-centered note, have Viggo as an ISFP, The Artist. Also, these are entirely viewed by my own perspective. I'm not saying that they are really like that, but this is just how I usually write/see them.
ISFPs live in the world of sensation possibilities. They are keenly in tune with the way things look, taste, sound, feel and smell. They have a strong aesthetic appreciation for art, and are likely to be artists in some form, because they are unusually gifted at creating and composing things which will strongly affect the senses. They have a strong set of values, which they strive to consistently meet in their lives. They need to feel as if they're living their lives in accordance with what they feel is right, and will rebel against anything which conflicts with that goal.
ISFPs have a strong affinity for aesthetics and beauty. They're likely to be animal lovers, and to have a true appreciation for the beauties of nature. They're original and independent, and need to have personal space.
ISFPs are action-oriented individuals. They are "doers", and are usually uncomfortable with theorizing concepts and ideas, unless they see a practical application. They learn best in a "hands-on" environment, and consequently may become easily bored with the traditional teaching methods, which emphasize abstract thinking. They do not like impersonal analysis, and are uncomfortable with the idea of making decisions based strictly on logic. Their strong value systems demand that decisions are evaluated against their subjective beliefs, rather than against some objective rules or laws. This whole paragraph had me going "... Viggo's Perceval Press, man."
Also, the next four paragraphs are perfect for how I see Viggo.
ISFPs are extremely perceptive and aware of others. They constantly gather specific information about people, and seek to discover what it means. They are usually penetratingly accurate in their perceptions of others.
ISFPs are warm and sympathetic. They genuinely care about people, and are strongly service-oriented in their desire to please. They have an unusually deep well of caring for those who are close to them, and are likely to show their love through actions, rather than words.
ISFPs have no desire to lead or control others, just as they have no desire to be led or controlled by others. They need space and time alone to evaluate the circumstances of their life against their value system, and are likely to respect other people's needs for the same.
The ISFP is likely to not give themself enough credit for the things which they do extremely well. Their strong value systems can lead them to be intensely perfectionist, and cause them to judge themselves with unneccesary harshness.
Relationships:
ISFPs are warmhearted, gentle people who take their commitments seriously, and seek lifelong relationships. They are very private people, who keep their true feelings and opinions reserved or hidden from others... ISFPs go to great lengths to please their partners. They're very loyal and supportive, with a deep capacity for love. They detest conflict and discord, and highly value being seen and understood for who they are. They need space to live their lives in their own unique way, and will respect other's need for space.
I am not saying anything more about the previous paragraph, man. It's so subjective that I am not touching it.
And Sean is an INFJ, otherwise known as 'The Protector'. The rarest of all personality types, according to this site.
INFJs place great importance on havings things orderly and systematic in their outer world. They put a lot of energy into identifying the best system for getting things done, and constantly define and re-define the priorities in their lives. On the other hand, INFJs operate within themselves on an intuitive basis which is entirely spontaneous. They know things intuitively, without being able to pinpoint why, and without detailed knowledge of the subject at hand. They are usually right, and they usually know it. This sentence just perfectly describes what everyone says about Sean's acting technique, man. Consequently, INFJs put a tremendous amount of faith into their instincts and intuitions.
... most INFJs are protective of their inner selves, sharing only what they choose to share when they choose to share it. They are deep, complex individuals, who are quite private and typically difficult to understand. INFJs hold back part of themselves, and can be secretive.
INFJs are rarely at complete peace with themselves - there's always something else they should be doing to improve themselves and the world around them. They believe in constant growth, and don't often take time to revel in their accomplishments. They have strong value systems, and need to live their lives in accordance with what they feel is right. In deference to the Feeling aspect of their personalities, INFJs are in some ways gentle and easy going. Conversely, they have very high expectations of themselves, and frequently of their families. They don't believe in compromising their ideals.
Relationships:
They are perfectionists, constantly striving to achieve the Perfect Relationship. This can sometimes be frustrating to their mates, who may feel put upon by the INFJs demanding perfectionism. However, it may also be greatly appreciated, because it indicates a sincere commitment to the relationship, and a depth of caring which is not usually present in other types.
Sexually, INFJs view intimacy as a nearly spiritual experience. They embrace the opportunity to bond heart and soul with their mates. As service-oriented individuals, it's very important to them that their mates are happy. Intimacy is an opportunity for the INFJ to selflessly give their love, and experience it in a tangible way.
Like I said with Viggo's section, NOT. GOING THERE. >_>

It's a problem with too much academia when I feel like I have to put in quotes to justify my own section of the personality description, much less Viggo and Sean's. Holy shit.
Also, HAVE FUN if you want to take the test yourself. 8D

Oddly enough, I'm currently doing science at A level (it's a UK exam) and absolutely refuse to do it at uni level because it's incredibly dull. And irritating.

Apparently only 1.5% of the population and 0.5% of women are INTJs, odd, right? It doesn't mean that there's something wrong with the statistics if we both have the same results. It just means we're equally awesome. 8D

But it was odd that I hesitated a lot over some questions, as one bit of me wanted to hit a Viggo button and the other said..no - the other button! (from life-training!) But I wish I could have been the ISFP one I think I might have been meant to be! odd. Nurture over Nature!!!!
Do you have a decent break over the Halloween? I just want to hide my head and dip out of all that crap. I shall measure furniture, sort out my books and write!!! You make sure you have time for YOU...even if it is editing a friend's thesis, if that makes you happy?
At least my 62% feeling allows me to say - LOVE YOU...cos I do. Loving old Looloo.
no subject
Ooh, why do you think you're meant to be an ISFP? S/N are one of the most sharply defining traits of a person, because that's basically how you gain knowledge. For example, I'm very very much an N person (which is somewhat irritating given that I am also a T), which means that I generally just know things instead of going out and exploring it. I'm not saying that you're wrong; I'm just curious about it.
No Halloween breaks for me here. But I have a Halloween party to go to tomorrow. I have my suit ready. As in, men's wear. I'm dressing up as a cowboy dressing up as a movie star. >_> Also, I like feeling useful, so yes, editing my friend's thesis makes me happy. 8D

I wanted to be an ISFP cos I do somehow KNOW what it would be like to be a Viggotype. I am sooo like him in my original form. before LIFE got at me. Nurture beat the shit out of Nature's gifts. and now.. all I can feel is the pain of wishing to walk in his ways. Like the Little Mermaid I spose. I have to be this.. INFJ. Infinitely nonsensical foolish joker!!! hahahaha
Oh HEY Cowboy... a WHITE stetson... and oh ivory-handled pistols slung on those yummy flappy chaps. GOD and wear a neckerchief tied with bow under the ear and the shirt open to cleavage..aaaah Bloody Hell. HiHo Trigger, pass me my geeetah! And can you sling a shot of whisky along the bar without spilling it? And TINKLEY spurs!!!! oh GOD... I'm in love!!! Bless you and have a ball at the ball!!!

Actually not one of them really fit me as I am now as I found that there were some of all represented in the way I work, think and act.
But that might be because I have come to a certain age now where I had the chance to experience the positives and negatives of so many actions that I adapted.
The way you see the two boys made me smile. It would be interesting to see them doing the test for real and see what the outcome would be and if it matches.

For example, a couple of years back, I was an INTP. Now I'm an INTJ. Things change through time and you don't have to keep to one personality type always, I think.
no subject
Just took the questionnaire. You never guess what was the result!!!
INTJ
Introvert(56%) iNtuitive(62%) iNtuitive Thinking(1%) Judging(33%)
You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (56%)
You have distinctive preference of Intuition over Sensing (62%)
You have marginal or no preference of Thinking over Feeling (1%)
You have moderate preference of Judging over Perceiving (33%)

I had once someone in my team whose constant chatter was distracting the rest of the team members and as their leader they came to me complaining. So I had to pull the person aside and have a word.
You want to do that without ruffling more feathers than necessary.
So the "F" comes handy in those situations as you can emphasise how a person will react and avoid big mistakes in such a conversation.

I need to talk to you more to know, but N/S is usually one of the things that's easiest to figure out about a person.
Sure, ok. I'm always game for these sorts of things, anyway. (In Junior High, as a class we used to beg the school counsellor to let us take one of the DSM tests because we wanted to see if anyone came out as a sociopath. *snort* Poor woman. We harrassed her about that so much.)
Uh, it depends what you mean by organized, because if organized = tidy, then no. If you mean do I plan things and then execute those plans, then yes. I'm not very spontaneous. It unsettles me, even when it's a pleasant activity.
no subject
No, that's basically organisation. I'm not tidy at all but I plan out each day very, very meticulously and execute those damn plans. Spontaneous people scare me. Even when I'm spontaneous I always have to plan out that spontaneity, which possibly entirely defeats its point.
no subject
Aw, she never let us take the DSM Diagnostic, possibly because she didn't have access to those diagnostic tools, and also, I can't imagine what would happen if one of the kids popped up as having some sort of criminal tendencies. Lawsuits, ahoy! I have done actual formal IQ tests, though, the hours-long overseen by a psychologist kind. Once to get into my junior high/high school, and a shorter one later to compare my progess. It was... interesting, to say the least. I have to wonder what they were doing when they administered yours for you to get such a low score! O_o
I don't plan things excessively, but I do generally have a good idea of exactly how I'm going to spend my day. And when I go out, I make lists to take with me. Moreso while I'm here in NZ, I find. At home, it's just lists of stuff I'm going out to get/places I have to stop. Here, it's that and lists of things to bring, times to leave, what I need to do before I go... *rolls eyes*
Oh, man, I have mostly trained my friends out of the habit of springing things on me, but I feel similarly. My family never did anything much spontaneously; usually we had a plan, even if we were just going into the mountains for the day. ("What time are we going to leave in the morning?" "Don't forget to bring a jacket. ...Did you pack a jacket?" "We'll stop at X and have lunch.") I still remember when my oldest friend called me up one day, when I wasn't doing anything but watching TV, and asked me if I wanted to meet her at the bookstore to hang out for a bit. I went, and it was nice and everything, but boy did it feel weird. I just couldn't quite deal with the disruption to what I'd already decided I was going to be doing that evening. So, yeah. If I could, I would totally plan out every spontaneous thing ever. ^_~
no subject
Well, it was an hour-long and class-wide test, and a lot of it was based upon mathematics. Not pattern-forming, but like... anagrams and counting numbers to see the patterns, and I'm always shit at those. It's basically a test of everything I suck balls at, and so I did horrifically for it. I wasn't the only one - just the lowest score - but there were people who scored one a hundred seventy for that test. They ended up scrapping the entire thing. I still don't know the bloody point. Also, why did you have to take an IQ test to get to junior high?!
HAHA OMG I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. I can only do something spontaneous once I'm done with What I Have To Do Today. I only have one list, and that is my to-do list. It's my Things I HAVE to do. If I don't complete it, I can't sleep. I literally can't sleep. It's a bit sad. And whenever a friend says we're meeting up suddenly, I go all "what time are we meeting where are we going what time will we be done what will we be doing" and I basically kind of ask for an itinerary before heading out of the house. It's part of why people don't ask me out randomly anymore >_>. I've basically made myself get used to spontaneity for at least one person though, but that's more of "spontaneity is expected, so it's not really spontaneous" which... is possibly a mindscrew.
Also, entirely unrelated: is it possible for me to repost my fic for the SOG Halloween exchange and to post the SECOND post instead of the first? I suddenly realised I need edits. Bad.
no subject
Oh, lord. No wonder they had to scrap it. Yikes.
Also, why did you have to take an IQ test to get to junior high?!
Oh. Um, it wasn't a test to get into junior high full stop. It was to see if I qualified for a specific junior high school. It was a private school for average to above average children, and therefore you had to do the IQ test to get in. I actually saw the report the psychologist lodged some time afterwards, and it was both fascinating and baffling, because it even noted that I'd been delivered via Caesarian section, and displayed no ill effects. I was ten. I sure hope someone would have noticed any ill effects a wee bit sooner than that. O_o
Aw, I'm sorry you can't sleep if the list isn't done! *hugs* But boy, I can relate to the itinerary thing. With the exception of my parents, who were/are all about having a plan (gee, I cannot imagine where I picked that up! *snort*), I tend towards simply setting the itinerary for any plans with my friends. ("I'll pick you up at X." "We'll meet at Y." "We need to do Z.") We'll decide on what we're doing, and then I'll start quizzing them for input on the particular details. *G* I tend to shoot for agreement and accord when it comes to decisions, though, which I know feeds into the F part.
is it possible for me to repost my fic for the SOG Halloween exchange and to post the SECOND post instead of the first?
Yup! Go ahead, make the post, and either myself or Barb will reject the first post once the edited one is in the queue.
no subject
it even noted that I'd been delivered via Caesarian section, and displayed no ill effects.
... Dude what, that's... I thought that's more for a pediatrician to check instead of a psychologist? What kind of mental damage would a kid have if delivered by C-section? That is so out of the left field, omg. Where did it even come from? How did they even know? It's a conspiracy!
I tend to shoot for agreement and accord when it comes to decisions, though, which I know feeds into the F part.
Most likely, yeah! I know that whenever I have plans that differ from a group, I would split from the ground and do my own shit alone instead of compromising. Compromise doesn't really make anyone happy, why should people compromise for me, it's the most logical decision to just do my shit myself. Apparently being T means being more of an asshole than an F. :3
Also, I sent in the edited one!
no subject
Ah, ok. *snerk* I figure if everyone's mostly-happy, then we can all be happy together! Also, there must be a way to solve this rubix cube puzzle of people's preferences and feelings, right? There must be some fancy solution that will make everyone all totally happy! *twists self into knots*
Oh, and because everyone else was posting their statistical results, I did mine again:
Introvert(33%) iNtuitive(25%) iNtuitive Feeling(25%) Judging(67%)
- moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (33%)
- moderate preference of Intuition over Sensing (25%)
- moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (25%)
- distinctive preference of Judging over Perceiving (67%)
The bottom two tend to drift the most depending on how I answer the questions, so that the moderate Feeling preference might become distinctive, and the distinctive Judging preference becomes strong, but the top two still stay within "moderate," even when they drift. Apparently I'm Judgey McJudgerson, though, because my Judging is always high when compared to Perceiving. *shrug* Take that as you will. *G* I'm silently judging
youeveryone. ^_~Ok, spiffy! I'll clear out the old copy, er, soon. Soonish. As soon as I get to it. You're all good, I think!
no subject
Introvert(78%) iNtuitive(12%) iNtuitive Thinking(75%) Judging(56%)
You have strong preference of Introversion over Extraversion (78%)
You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (12%)
You have distinctive preference of Thinking over Feeling (75%)
You have moderate preference of Judging over Perceiving (56%)
... This is surprising. I didn't realise that I actually Sense things so much because I tend to be rather inobservant in real life. @_@ I'm super, super I-T, though, which is unsurprising. Also, fffff, being Judgey McJudgeperson isn't a bad thing! At least, not in MBTI's judgement sense anyway. I might be missing the joke. It's okay, I'm peering at you under the microscope. Does that make it fair?
Got it. Thanks, lovely!

Interesting! I actually think my Introversion should be higher, but I suspect my career path and a couple choices in life have basically moderated that tendency a bit. I still get really tired after socializing, which is funny when held up against a very close super extroverted friend of mine. We spend a lot of great time together, but I totally can't keep up. She becomes energized the longer we're out and socializing, and I become progressively more drained and start to lag behind. The only thing that stops her is actual, physical fatigue. ^_^
Well, like you said, the terms don't necessarily mean what they seem to mean on the surface. It's been kind of hard not to equate "Judging" with "being hyper judgmental of others," but that's not what it means anyway. *G* ...The only joke was that I wanted to say "Judgey McJudgerson," which is a silly way of saying, "an incredibly judgmental (and sometimes hypocritical) person." I think that makes us even. You're peering, and I'm judging your peering. ...Or something. *snicker*
My pleasure!

Oh God, I can totally empathise with having a friend who is more extroverted than you are. It's kind of awesome sometimes because you don't really ever need to find a topic of conversation because she does that without it ever being difficult, but sometimes she just gets so animated after an outing and I'm just like nnnnngh /dying slowly from too much socialising. I always need to go somewhere and spend the whole day or at least most of the day without anyone else, man. I don't know how extroverted people do it. @_@
And then I'm peering at your judging, which makes us even more even! I might be taking this joke too far.

Tell you what... when I get back from Home Depot with Honey I'll take the test again, knowing what I know now about my entire perception of myself from early childhood on being a lie, and see what I come up with, and I'll get back to you!

I don't think there's a 'right way' to answer the question? Just go with what seems the most honest to you and what feels the most right. 8D

I just took the test again here and I am still ENFJ. It seems pretty accurate about me to me. :D
Your Viggo and Sean analyses are interesting.I wonder how Viggo and Sean would come out if they scored themselves? :D

Woah. I just checked your personality description and the very title is already woah-worthy. I might sound completely off-base here, but I'm a major T and really kind of very introverted, and being ENFJ sounds exhausting.
I don't know! It'll be one of the mysteries of the world.
