Basically, I've scored all across the board on MBTI tests, and recently I've been discussing with different friends about this MBTI thing. One doesn't know the function, so I've dismissed their opinions, one knows the function and is generally correct at typing at least fictional characters, and the third one seems to know a lot about MBTI but doesn't really know me that well. One of the reasons for this difficulty in typing is that I'm most likely either in the grip or looping a lot.
Anyway, here are the three questionnaires. If the response seems curt or rude, it's because I literally couldnt make head or tail of the question, or I don't think its assumptions are necessarily valid.
Interaction Style:
Informing, responding, chart-the-course.
Temperament is a bit harder because NTs are held up to be this Fountain Of Knowlege, and I do value knowlege, but I also value other things, so it's a mixed bag.
1.
1-what makes you angry?
When there are established rules for certain things and people just can't be arsed to follow them. It bothers me the most when it actually negatively affects me, so to speak, because these rules are usually there for a reason -- they're there to prevent us from descending into chaos and killing one another out of sheer frustration
2-what do you like/dislike most about people?
... they're often loud in a group and hard to read.
3-do you like animals? why?
not particularly. i just don't see the point of having an animal in my life that needs to be taken care of, fed, and all that, and I don't have a stable income or a stable place to provide it with necessary happiness - so investing all these resources to feed another mouth sounds a bit useless to me, especially since i derive limited enjoyment from their. y'know. existence. or interaction. ... maybe i'd like a hen coz they actually give eggs, but they're still so messy.
4-what do you like most about the favorite people in your life?
he is reliable, through thick and think, and has shown himself to be. i don't think anybody else but him could be trusted - small promises maybe, but there's something else to life, more than these small things like showing up for a coffee.
5-what do you like/dislike most about yourself?
...i don't like or dislike parts of myself. i just am. but it would make my life a lot easier if i was nervous a lot less, require less down time, and require a lot less preparation for everything social. as it is, it's not a very pleasant existence.
6-do you care about being fashionable? why/why not?
in some sense, yes, because i want to fit in and look somewhat presentable. but i wholly reject new fashion trends, because it takes resources and time, and honestly a lot of things are either bad taste, or not my style.
7-do you prefer to fit in or stand out?
i'd prefer not to do either if they require additional effort on my part. why should i care what others think about me? unless they're actually paying me. then yeah, it depends on the context - fit in for less friction, stand out in a positive way, that sort of thing.
8-what activities do you enjoy?
...mindless activities in video games, surfing the net. usual boring things.
9-what makes you feel secure?
knowing that things are always there for me. (which, i guess, is very hard to find in an age of change)
10-do you like being in a relationship? why/why not?
it depends on the person. i've been in too many bad relationships to say yes willy nilly. sorry if i'm skeptical. but at the same time, being in a relationship has its perks.
11-what do you love and why? Could be people, things, places, etc...
...depends. there are some things that go beyond love. i'd rather not speak of those. on a more superficial level, i do love chocolate, and despite the bad memories associated with pudding, it's one of the few things i can ingest without feeling ill. people... nah.
i used to like big cities, but these days, they all appear the same to me regardless of their characteristics. probably just capitalism and globalisation at work. i do have a fondness for kyoto and tokyo, the side streets of old beijing, the horrendous yet quaint hill you had to climb in hong kong, but it is only from memory - perhaps being there, now, is different. is that love? probably not.
12-what do you spend the most time thinking about?
...things. whatever topic school has, for classes. it's intellectually challenging, there's no easy answers, and that's where my skills lie.
13-How much have you changed over the years? Who were you as a child?
...i was a quiet child who drew a lot, told stories, and daydreamed a lot. you could probably say the same thing of me as an adult, only i hate drawing now.

1. if you could have one mythical creature as a pet, what would it be?
depends. does it feed itself or do i have to feed it? i'm not about to spend the rest of my life grooming and feeding a dragon. but i'd want a dragon to give me back rides.
2. What do you want to be when you grow up? (yes, written by a 26 year old )
.............. i'd pay you $5 to shoot me right now.
3. If you were a fruit or vegetable, what fruit or vegetable would you be?
i am not.
4. What is your favorite beverage?
vodka
5. You're having a cookout... what do you make?
i don't do cookouts. if i did i'd make barbeque.
6. What's the most recent cool thing you've learned?
...errr... that postcolonial studies are a result of cultural studies intersecting with thematically based literary studies, so to speak.
7. What portrayal of the future do you like the best?
i like speculative fiction, but fiction is not a mirror of reality, so i don't see them as portrayals of the future. future exists only in one form, and that is the real. it makes no sense to cross over either, especially when we know from looking at past portrayals that while some themes may seem universal, that's just because we're humans being human (i.e.; a chaotic mess)
8. You're on death row... what's your last meal?
i wonder if they'd let me die drunk and high. i'd like to get high on heroin once at least, before i die. it'd be intersting, and since i'm dead anyway, i won't have to deal with the negative effects.

What's your type?
... of people? Of things? of food? my mbti type?
What colour do you like?

occasionally, but i try not to pay attention to that anymore.

that made no sense whatsoever.
If you put a pig in an airplane does that mean that pigs can fly?
