Your personality type is:
Logician
INTP-A
Logician
INTP-A
As an INTP (Logician), you possess a unique blend of intellectual curiosity, analytical prowess, and a penchant for abstract thinking. Your mind is a playground of ideas, constantly exploring complex concepts and seeking to understand the underlying principles of the world around you. You approach life with a rational, logical mindset, preferring to rely on facts and reason rather than emotions or conventional wisdom.
Your insatiable thirst for knowledge drives you to delve deep into subjects that capture your interest. You’re not content with surface-level understanding; instead, you strive to grasp the intricacies of systems and theories, often developing innovative solutions to complex problems. This intellectual depth, combined with your ability to think outside the box, sets you apart in both personal and professional spheres.
While your cognitive abilities are undoubtedly a strength, they can sometimes lead to challenges in the social realm. You may find yourself more comfortable in the world of ideas than in emotional or social situations. Your tendency to analyze everything, including social interactions, can sometimes make you appear detached or aloof to others who don’t understand your thought processes.
As an INTP, you value independence and autonomy highly. You prefer to work at your own pace, following your own interests and methods. This independence can be a double-edged sword; while it allows you to pursue your passions without constraint, it can also lead to difficulties when you need to conform to external structures or deadlines. Learning to balance your need for intellectual freedom with the practical demands of life is a key part of your personal growth journey.
In your professional life, you thrive in environments that challenge your intellect and allow you to explore complex problems. Fields such as scientific research, software development, data analysis, or philosophical inquiry often appeal to your logical, systematic approach. You excel at spotting inconsistencies, developing theoretical models, and finding innovative solutions that others might overlook.
However, your career path may not always be straightforward. Your diverse interests and dislike for routine can lead you to explore various fields before settling on a direction. You may also struggle with the more mundane aspects of work life, such as adhering to schedules or dealing with office politics. Finding a role that offers both intellectual stimulation and enough flexibility to accommodate your working style is crucial for your job satisfaction and long-term career success.

How about the Anti-Logician: trying to decipher the strange and inconsistent themes of society, biology and politics. The things that make them make sense induce cortical blockers that appear to be genetically coded in the masses (to induce conformity and obedience?).
You can state the obvious or show the obvious, but it will offend almost everybody who wish to be guided by a thematic mythology, leadership paradigm or seductive, hypnotic deception.

INTJ/P here. I don’t get the fuck along with ESFJs. Too bad that’s what my parents were. ENFPs are always fun, particularly in bed. But they are usually bat shit crazy.

Not surprising that INTJ would not care for those personality types. I’ve worked with three known INTJ’s (one even had it posted in his cubicle) and I love them because they are so interesting. I think they like me because I listen to and agree with their gripes about management.
I don’t know if I’ve ever met the personality types you cite, but I think that’s purposeful on my part. I definitely shun and stay away from flighty people. Can’t stand them actually. I find little moral grounding in them. ESFP are another personality type I don’t care for (Michael Scott). It’s almost impossible for me to relate to someone whose self worth is so wrapped up in what others think of them.

Gonna be honest here, I have no idea what you are talking about. I think that’s the most ISTJ way I can respond to what you posted.

Interesting Wookie, nearly the same personality type as I am. I find those types most agreeable.
The only extrovert types I get along with well is estj(my dad is one, my former boss was one, and my best work friend is one). And even they wear me out at times.
ENTJ I feel like I’d go to the ends of the earth to prove my worth to, but ultimately I’m just a tool to them and in some ways beneath them. It’s the only personality type I have this dynamic with. And it feels horribly awkward. But I owe the later part of my career to an ENTJ. And no surprise. So he hired me as the assistant division head to the division he was over. 3 of the 6 section heads(2 of whom he promoted) are ISTJ’s. Very accomplished guy and has gotten things done I haven’t seen ever in my career from his contemporaries…current or past. He ran into office politics and it’s kept him from moving higher(he can’t move much higher anyway) so he reinvented his career for now the third time, which is very rare in government work. I am not sure he will pursue that third career but all the foundation is set. I suspect he partially did it so he has a eff U trump card in his pocket to play if he wants.

Btw I am sure President Trump is an ENTJ. Reddit discussions try to dismiss this assessment but Reddit is filled with indoctrinated lefties who are just looking to pin crazy and incompetence on President Trump.

Personality types are bullshit outside of hierarchical corporate command structures. Try this within a marriage or a family structure.
I think it's much simpler. Firstborn is saddled with unrealistic parental expectations, develops resentments therefrom, and takes these out on the younger siblings. The youngest siblings, being the weakest and most mentally undeveloped, and continually at the mercy of their elder siblings, learn "how to get along."
This is why firstborns get along with lastborn spouses, and why the converse is cats and dogs conflict. I've been in both relationship situations, and that is my basis for my assertion.

I just sent it to my wife. We'll see if she does it. She hates this type of shit. I think it's eye opening if people answer honestly. Helps everyone understand each other better.

Yeah absolutely. My parents both took it. My brothers wife got super excited when I started talking about it and we had one of the longest conversations we’ve ever had. My wife will not touch it with a ten foot pole.

It still applies and helps with understanding. Also you are incredibly generalizing in a situation where there can be many other types of dynamics, particularly a much closer relationship with the many of life’s trauma’s. I’ve had exactly one close work friend die on the job, but several family members starting with all my grandparents and great aunts and uncles as well as an uncle and cousins. Not to mention things like divorce, abuse and about a million other things that are far closer to the heart in a family dynamic vs the work place.

I'm going to try to be polite. Doesn't matter the timing of when they were born. My oldest just became a Freshman and found out that there are class rankings for grades. Nothing to do with my wife or I. He literally has said he wants to fucking destroy his classmates. The kid doesn't want to lose. Neither does my nephew. My youngest is too young in my opinion, but the shift is coming.
The wife and I don't bull shit. Only one call from the school when my youngest threw a chair. I did that as a kid myself though. My oldest literally has no expectations outside of don't get in trouble. He follows that rule and wants to be the best on his own.
Wife and I have our beefs, but I'm interested to see if she takes the test. Through the good and bad we have some really good kids given the circumstances. Her family is a shit show, not gonna lie. It will be interesting to see her personality. I hope she takes it.

It’s a free test and doesn’t require personal information if I remember correctly. It’s an assessment of personality type. I’m an ISTJ and proudly so. Honestly love who I am, even if it makes life harder sometimes. I do have difficulty relating to some personality types especially the Diplomat and Explorer ones. Additionally some of the Master of the Universe types most definitely see me as useful, but not someone that they hold particular interest in. On Reddit there’s a lot of complaints about ISTJ personalities type bosses but my staff has described me as one of the best bosses they’ve ever had(and that’s across three different assignments I’ve had). My best friends in life tend to be other ISTJ’s and especially INTJ’s(think any science based character played by Jeff Goldblum). I will say that for a life partner I was always drawn to extroverts or introverts who displayed some extrovert characteristics. My wife is an introvert but makes friends quicker than anyone I’ve ever met and has personality attributes that I absolutely adore.
Anyway, it’s an interesting assessment imo. If you do take it, be honest sad possible and try not to read anything into the question. I found the report generated after to be very insightful.
