Another silly quiz I found

My Bloginality is INTP! Apparently a lot of bloggers share this Myers-Briggs type. Who knew? The test that they have on this site only contains four questions, but INTP is the same result I always get whenever I've taken the full-length Myers-Briggs test. It's a fairly rare personality type, apparently, so I was kind of surprised to see that so many bloggers share this type. But according to this online source, anyway, it's easy to see why people like us might wish to blog:

"[INTPs] tend to see distinctions and inconsistencies instantaneously, and can detect contradictions no matter when or where they were made. It is difficult for an [INTP] to listen to nonsense, even in a casual conversation, without pointing out the speaker's error. And in any serious discussion or debate [INTPs] are devastating, their skill in framing arguments giving them an enormous advantage."
Well then. If the shoe fits, as they say. You know who you are. I don't enjoy debating all that much, but it is difficult for me to listen to nonsense. I mean, who likes to listen to nonsense? I guess maybe this is the problem: people do listen to it all the damn time. And more to the point, they believe in it.

I'm not sure where I found the bloginality link; this has been sitting on my desktop for a while. NTodd, maybe?
