Dishing the Brain Dirt
Good morning, you sexified little love kittens and porn doggies. Nothing much going on in the K-brain today besides a shroud of day-after-way-too-much-drinking-for-a-week night haziness. Since I let y'all in on one of my trade secrets yesterday, I thought I would stick to the same open and vulnerable theme today.
I did one of those methodologically suspect personality trait test things a while ago and thought I'd post the results, just so you can glean profound psycho-forensic insights into the K-personality. Aww, who am I kidding- I'm barren of an original thought today, because the blood flow to my gourd has been severely compromised by a dehydrated cranial membrane and smartness capillaries.
Anyway, below I have revealed what the super-scientific online personality generator spat back at me after answering several hundred strange questions. I say we use the thread today to dish the personality dirt on each other. I encourage you all to share something unique, contentious or taboo about yourselves today that you haven't before. Let the games begin!
Apparently- this is me: ENTJ - Commandant
You scored 81% I to E, 42% N to S, 90% F to T, and 36% J to P! The single word to describe your type is fieldmarshal or commandant. You also belong to the larger group called rationals. You love to organize others in matters of logic. Even as a child, you likely naturally assumed the role of leader in groups. You share your personality type with 2% of the population. When you lead, you are more concerned with policy and goals than rules and regulations. You have a tendency to become a workaholic. You are impatient with repetition of error. You are friendly and outgoing, though. You don't mince words and willingly share your many strong opinions.
As a romantic partner, you are inspiring, but also somewhat challenging. You have a strong desire to be in charge and your clear need for an organized life and home can be overwelming to a partner. You like to confront conflict directly, discuss problems unflinchingly, solve them, then put them behind you. However, you can be too impatient or unwilling to take the time to listen to your partner and give them a chance to express themselves fully so that they also have a sense of closure. You are generally uncomfortable dealing with emotions, so you are apt to dismiss your partner's emotions as illogical. You feel most appreciated when your partner asks for your opinions, takes your adivce, and relies on you to get a job done right.Your group summary: rationals (NT) Your type summary: ENTJ

LOL! It's funny how there's always a grain of truth in those things. Having hoisted a few with you already, I can see some of those traits in you K-man. Notably the "don't mince words", "impatient with repetitious error" and "uncomfortable dealing with emotions" parts. I generally read people well. That's why I haven't bullshitted you, made any mistakes around you or told you how much I love you yet.
Apparently, (all gleaned from various sources of questionable origin over the last few years)I have a spacial sense that's off the scale, I'm a natural optimist, I make major life decisions easily and quickly, and I was a classical musician in a previous life. I must have been a woman, because I have the spirit of one. Sweet.
I also have a strong sense of justice, and dislike confrontation...a really shitty combo to be sure.
Ha!
Those are some keen insights that I can see in you - not just because we have met in the real world- but through your commenting over the past year. Strange how you can learn things about a person through their sense of hunour, writing abilities or quick witedness- all through the digital print medium.
Of course, I believe that face to face, flesh-to flesh interaction can never be replaced by online communication. Augmented, yes. Replaced, no.
The social act of hoisting a few will always be one the best venues for expression, companionship and communication- in my eyes.
The modern day university grad seminar had its roots in a practice that loosely originated at the University of Gottingen in the early 1800s in Germany. Students and teachers would gather informally every week at a pub and debate pre-planned topics. Booze, brains, boasting and comraderie- ya just can't fucknig beat it baby!
I knew we had something in common... well... we're both rationals... I'm an INTP... at least the computer says so... and you know the computer is logically flawless so we must believe what it says... yep... we do...
See- because of my global, incessant big picture view, I haev to say that is an implausible assertion. Computers are merely tools, and what they know is only what fallible, non-quantifiable humans have told them to know.
That said, your clever cynicism is not lost on me JEZ...
once in high school, I did a personality test to figure out what job would ultimately satisfy me most.
it told me podiatrist.
to this day, I stare back at all the stupid decisions of my life and wonder if I would have been happier fixing feet.
I have a very hard time answering honestly on any personality tests. I think it depends on your frame of mind when answering.I did two within a few weeks a while back and the results were not the same. My chinese horoscope (snake) is closer to the truth.
so where's the link to the test? oh oh, is that an error on your part? its blogger jail for the k-man.
and i thought i was the only one with restricted brain cells this morning!! (NOTE the blog topic du jour...a little "pull it out of the bin 'cause it's all you've got today" choice).
as for personality traits...i've done more than my fair share of psychological profiles (and not all of them of my own free will) and the best...the absolute best was the diagnose of SOCIAL DEVIANT.
WTF???? social deviant??? so i was a teen. and i wore leather and pointy paraphenalia. and i liked staying up late, not working and drinking in parks. Does THAT make me a social deviant? What about my distaste for authority, my love for political art and my desire to overthrow the system (at 15 I had a plan. now i'm lost).
yeah...them psychomological tests are good...for a chuckle.
chuckercanuck, my response to you: do as the name suggests...and chuck it. chuck the job, the fam, the life. leave it all behind...and go on the road. there's a world out there...a world of tender tootsies...and they need the love and expertise of one, good, podiatrist. you could be that podiatrist. first stop: India. There's LOTS of feet in India.
Romana...."Love for political art?" Portraits of the Prime Ministers?
Chucker, I took an aptitude test for a sales manager position some years back, and scored very high. It was the worst job ever. I had to discipline, monitor performance and fire people. You couldn't get more "not me" than that. I felt like puking every morning.
hmmm... so I've been waffling between thinking of some terrible clever comment to make about cynicism or blustering about how not all humans are fallible (which of course, would be a mistake)... but am thinking that your brain cell failure is contagious and that mine are rapidly disintergrating as 1:00 p.m. approaches (at which point my weekend begins) and the only thought that pops up in my mind at all is that a beer would be heavnely right now...
that anonymous comment was me... damn computers... error messages and then it forgets my name! bah!
YES! Diefenbaker is my favourite followed closely by the oft forgotten and much maligned John Turner. Sigh...them PMs...men of action...captured in oil and velvet. Could it get any better??
scout -- finding the link IS the test. you failed.
I'm not sure if it's contagious because I have a hockey hangover and I'm suffering through that. I hate hockey. I hate hangovers.
K -
you may not hear from me for a while.
I'm off to India with a bottle of foot massage oil.
Wish me luck!
Podiatres-sans-frontieres!
You're so full of it, chucker. You could never give up blogging.
CC- if you end up working in a leper colony, bring me back a foot!
BTW- re: Pam's comment..how much do you make blogging CC? I hope you get paid by the comment.
pam,
its not so much the blogging, but the chance to bask in your cyber-aura.
k-dough,
sick dawg! the best I can promise is bunions.
CC- you are shameless.
But you know what, everybody absolutely loves Pam.
What exactly is it about her that causes such pitiful pubescent drooling? I ned to know. So tell me- errr, us.
romana, ah, ya, sure, i knew that and was only joking......heh heh.
personality tests...ach, i've done a million of them , but none have spotted the jimmy durante within, ha cha cha cha cha.
