Where Is The Sin
#51 posted by gb on 2011/04/07 01:58:24
I mean sorry, I don't even believe in sin or have any good idea of it. How am I supposed to answer this one at all?
Hmm

Awesome test. Got the same result as Zwiff. Which disturbs me because it means it may be somewhat accurate...

gb you pick A or B. It didn't deviate from the formula at all really.

This test might be one big non sequitor.

(if anyone is familiar with this)
I found the result of that test accurate in some ways but mostly not... I also suspect that, horoscope-style, it would be possible to design a series of results general enough to apply to anyone and distribute them on a random basis.
That's Almost The Opposite Of How I Feel

You are in a perpetual quest to find the new, the exciting. Emotionally volatile, you are known for sudden changes of opinion, of appreciation, and behavior. Following rules and established methods is difficult for you and the difficulties of higher education are usually quite daunting. Knowledge is best gained through an intimate association with the matter at hand. Usually driven by attitudes and desires of the group, you are talented in an established field of endeavor. Emotions come and go without a strong understanding of their causes. They are unexpected guests in an otherwise placid landscape. You live by your own codes of conduct, which can be noble or terrible depending on the individual. Authority is meaningless to you. You hate to be predictable, at all costs. Rarely verbally effusive, you can at times feel as if your feelings are too deep for words. You are very observant, but rarely express these observations to others.
Same As Zwiff Too

although my world definitely isn't black and white. unsure about the logic systems part too..

I was perturbed by the black and white part as well - I see the world generally as gray as far as morality is concerned. But from a logical perspective, gray can be broken down to it's base white/black parts and ultimately assigned a value based off those parts.
Yeah, I'm always skeptical about these kinds of tests, but I thought it was pretty fun to take nonetheless. The one personality test that really nailed it though was the ... MyersBriggs personality test? I think I was INTP or something like that? Can't remember now, but there was like 16 personality types.

Myers Briggs, or whatever it's called, does seem to have a little more of a reputation for being good.
Hm

You reach out to the world and pull in experiences of all forms and kinds. Spontaneous, immediate and active, you have a natural tendency to win, whether this is in the business world or on the freeway. In the right context this can be a positive encouragement to those around you. In the wrong context it can lead to a pathetic display of ego and misplaced pride. You are always on the prowl for clues as to how to win. Usually this behavior is unconscious or playful but the sense of play can rapidly disappear if you are found to be losing in the aforementioned contest. Only those who don�t compete are met with derision. You love to be the center of attention. The moment at hand is always of prime concern. Worries about the future or the past, or abstract discussions of philosophical matters are something for others to concern themselves with. Emotions are fleeting and often used as tactics.

You just made that up, mate. In reality it said:
You reach out to the world and pull in experiences of all forms and kinds. Spontaneous, immediate and active, you have a natural tendency to make friends, whether this is in the business world or on the freeway. In the right context this can be a positive encouragement to those around you. You are always on the prowl for clues as to how to become a better person. Usually this behavior is unconscious or playful but the sense of play can rapidly disappear if you find you have to defend the ones you love. Those who compete are met with derision. You are better than that. The problem at hand is always of prime concern. Worries about the future or the past, or abstract discussions of philosophical matters are something reserved for three-cask talks with old friends via email. Emotions are fleeting but always deep and true.

Though quiet on the outside, you are often the hidden hero; someone who rushes in when needed and then after the emergency is over fades back into the woodwork. Because of this sense of duty and honor, you can also on occasion be rigid in your viewpoint and unyielding in the face of other ways of thinking. Usually cynical and rarely trusting of others, you maintain a small set of intimate friends. These bonds are stronger than most. You are always grounded in the present moment. Your close bonds can also lead to clique-ishness and a tendency to gossip about those who are deemed less worthy. You are an integrative thinker, collecting data from a wide range of sources and applying it to your worldview. You can become overly task-oriented. In stressful situations you often withdraw from the world to seek peace in contemplation. You often seem cold and withdrawn. Often you will withdraw rather than verbalize your discontent.

Not me, Myers Briggs puts me as ENFJ.
I do think a lot of the questions in MB are redundant... and the other test is sometimes plain weird, I was sometimes really unsure if I wanted to click A or B.
Mine

Handy in the real world manipulation of objects and events, you are easily enthused by practical projects. You often ignore or conveniently forget rules and boundaries that limit your freedom. This need for freedom extends even to the personal sphere and though you are kind and gentle, you will often be hard to pin down to a monogamous lifestyle. Because you tend to verbalize so seldom, you can be seen as phlegmatic or impassive. In moments of high tension you can often surprise those around you with a lighthearted or humorous remark. Because of your facility with the physical world, you are often engaged in sports that require dexterity, such as motorcycling or hang gliding. You will rarely have time for flights of fancy or unproductive discussion. Constraints on your freedom will be regarded as a personal attack.
Interestingly, it's more wrong than right.

ran through this twice. once about around the OP and then today.
answered differently from what i can recall but didn't consciously try to choose different answers.
1:
Often concerned with right and wrong, and punctilious in expressing it, you are best represented by the Customs Agent or the IRS inspector. Initially seen by others as cold or uncaring, you are difficult for those more spontaneous members of society to understand. You are extremely stable, responsible and dependable. You manifest an amazing ability to concentrate on the issue at hand, and are difficult to distract from issues that are important. You manifest a great sense of loyalty to your employers and your government. You tend to show love through a display of committed works, believing that actions speak louder than words. You are also resistant to change and tend to believe that the old ways are best. If a behavior has been successful in the past, why would anyone want to change? You work best in a controlled environment.
2:
Verbally and mentally fluid, you are refreshing and illuminating to those around you. This is occasionally somewhat discounted by the obvious pleasure that you take in exercising your mental acuity. Although generally peaceful you can often take a verbally aggressive tact in relations with the world, which can often be misunderstood by those around you. Innovative in the extreme, you can often think yourself right out of the correct answer to a given problem. Many times you are referred to as your own worst enemy. You tire very quickly of routine and so make poor clerks or administrative help. You also have no respect for authority and little patience for those you regard as inferior, most especially those in charge. Experimentation is your watchword and can occasionally lead to experience for its own sake and shallow decadence. Your thought can sometimes be scattered and disconnected.
both are fairly right (more than wrong). what ever sentences are in the program, they're obviously written in such a way as to be vague enough to apply to almost anyone. it's probably just rare cases like pjw where it's just completely wrong, and no amount of squeezing will get the round peg in the square hole.
It Wasn't Completely Wrong
#66 posted by pjw on 2011/04/12 03:21:08
Just mostly. This was the only part that was (sort of) correct:
In moments of high tension you can often surprise those around you with a lighthearted or humorous remark. Because of your facility with the physical world, you are often engaged in sports that require dexterity, such as motorcycling or hang gliding.
But my projects aren't usually overly practical, freedom isn't some sort of huge focus, I talk plenty (about unproductive bullshit regularly) and I certainly don't fuck around.
