Did this on a course today. I am ISFJ and I was totally freaked out by the profile. It isn't sort of like me. It IS me. It's like somebody sat on my shoulder for a year and then described me. Anybody else had this?

I'm an ENTJ, DH says it's a load of shit and you know what personality you have so you don't need telling, but I love a good test!

PolarisStar · 23/08/2017 23:30

Another INTP

PollyFlint · 23/08/2017 23:30

You do know it's been discredited, don't you? It's utter, utter bollocks.

This is just a fun chat and no lives are hanging in the balance because some of us once had to undergo Myers-Brigg analysis on some tiresome office away day. Maybe just let people have the conversation and don't join in if it's not your thing, eh?

INFJ

Disproportionately represented here as Laurie says. Hell is other people.

PollyFlint · 23/08/2017 23:33

Another INTP here. I suspect we'll be well represented on here. We are the type to spend large amounts of time on the internet arguing the toss.

Yes, I think you're probably right.

Mum2OneTeen · 23/08/2017 23:34

Yet another INTP here. Amazingly accurate for me too.

toffee1000 · 23/08/2017 23:34

I've done it a few times and often had a different answer, dunno what the last one was. I always come out as Introvert, though, which is me to a T Grin I don't care if it's been debunked or not. I don't remember the last answer but it described me very very well.

OvariesBeforeBrovaries · 23/08/2017 23:36

ENFP here.

This is the best Myers Briggs website I've found. It gives you the types in a sort of zombie apocalypse fantasy sci fi hero adventure story and it's very funny.

DH is an INTJ and there's an entire love story between the ENFP and the INTJ which is adorable and hilarious Grin

AhveHeardIt · 23/08/2017 23:38

I've had INFP and INFJ and to an extent I agree with this Of course it's like you, you're are giving them the answers! but descriptions of INFP and INFJ are inaccurate for me.

MeMeMeMe123 · 23/08/2017 23:41

INFJ....unreal!!! Nicely summarised 😊

ShakeShakeTheMuffin · 23/08/2017 23:42

Another INTJ here, not so rare after all.... at least not amongst those in this thread.

LilaoftheGreenwood · 23/08/2017 23:43

INTP, turbulent variant.

Yeah I wonder about this 1% thing. Obviously we would be over-represented on a forum, but to this extent?? Makes me wonder if conversely INTPs were somehow under-represented in the original cumulative sample.

myrtleWilson · 23/08/2017 23:44

another INFJ here - for 1% of the population we appear to all congregate on MN...

Headofthehive55 · 23/08/2017 23:45

Istj.
Logic.
Introvert.

Doobigetta · 23/08/2017 23:45

INFJ
I've seen many of these threads over the years, and there are always dozens of INs, quite a few ENs, a few ISs. Not sure I've ever seen an ES, although I know plenty in real life.

RJnomore1 · 23/08/2017 23:46

INTJ here

Big picture person. I think in the Star Wars one I was the emperor 😳

OhYouBadBadKitten · 23/08/2017 23:47

infj as well

MeMeMeMe123 · 23/08/2017 23:47

Its interesting though because I'm mildly introverted (a sociable introvert?.). but definitely recognise the need to decompress.

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 23/08/2017 23:48

ISFJ-T Defender (Turbulent).

I'd say it's pretty accurate actually!

esk1mo · 23/08/2017 23:49

INFJ checking in

PaganGoddessBrigid · 23/08/2017 23:49

ENFJ

A lot of people say they're rubbish but they're misunderstanding, it's no longer advised to hold it against somebody so to speak, if they want to be an event manager and their type is ISTP then that doesn't mean they can't do it but it'd be unlikely they'd apply imo. But it's not the same as your outward discernible personality.

I am so typically ENFJ it's ridiculous. I can champion other people so easily, I am really the cheerleader but I can be paralysed by indecision myself. I read every word of it and it does strike a chord. I read the other types too and it is the one I got, my result, that strikes a cord.

JustAnotherPoster00 · 23/08/2017 23:53

Just did it now and got this result, probably is bolloxs but quite accurate bolloxs iyswim INTP, -A/-T

hellokitsy · 23/08/2017 23:53

ISFP.

We are meant to be sensitive, nurturing and artistic.

whycantwegoonasthree · 23/08/2017 23:53

INFJ too... This is weird. All the INFJs in the country must be one here. I never meet any others IRL. Hmm
