Raptor, I think you could describe a piece of dog shit and make it sound like fireworks.

I'm a normal person, not any of these.

I voted jock. It's mostly all about sport for me. Fucking love rugby.
However I definitely have 'bum' days. And sometimes I'm daredevil and sometimes I'm nerd. I'm never really mechanical though which often disappoints me.

I'm more of a daredevil than any of the other options. The biggest thing for me is speed. I love going fast on/in any type of vehicle with wheels or tracks.
The faster the better.

"In speed we hurl ourselves beyond the body. Our bodies cannot scale the heavens except in a fume of petrol," Lawrence wrote. "Bones, blood, flesh, all pressed inward together." T.E. Lawrence was on to something...

At some point, I've been all of those things.

RaptorWizard is too weird to be SP btw. And sorry. "Tertiary Ni" doesn't cover it. Same with Da Vinci and Jung.

"Other things being equal, a simpler explanation is better than a more complex one."

Hey thanks for your typing opinion. I knew they as well as me aren't ISTP but its just arguments before have been made for it so basically I was taking a unique and indefensible position to see the reactions.

I swear I was just about to make a list of the different ISTP sub-types, and it was going to look almost exactly like this.

Daredevil Mechanic.

Im not into gadgets for the sake of them. In fact, I don't have patience with a lot of electronic/computer equipment but if it's a part of a larger practical system then I can get into it.

Daredevil Mechanic sounds cool. I can't think of something cool with bum, mechanic and jock. I'm not a jock really anyway, just physical in nature. Bum, fits okay as it is, I like to take it easy. Mechanic in that I like to figure out how to make it work. How to get the result.

...still no cool name

somewhere in between 1,3 and 4 some of 2 and 5. I'm supposedly one of the "rare" type 5's(which I don't think is so rare) so I have a bit of nerd in me.

I cringed when I wrote it. Lol. Sounds like such pomposity to label oneself in an absolute way. But it does sound cooler than what really is.

I bet. You can't choose multiple options so I just went with mechanic.
