I don’t know why personality tests fascinate me so much, but I’ve taken like 3 in the last few months. The ‘what sex is your brain’ test (apparently i’m kind of a boy. who knew?), the ‘what kind of romantic partner are you test’ (I’m ‘the peach’ - and too lazy to look up and post the link, however.), and now, this one that was on Caleb’s MySpace profile. Personally, I know pretty well who I am. I think I like taking the tests for empirical reasons. I’m always interested in seeing how close they get with the answers I provide. It’s a little experiment I do.

Anyway, interesting results here.

Ok. So, anti-authority, 70%. Yeah. I got that. Little paranoid - absolutely. Hard worker - sure thing. But the things that get me are the adjectives they offer to describe me. ‘does not make friends easily, secretive, introverted, reclusive, observer, dislikes leadership, somewhat socially awkward, dislikes large parties, values solitude, solitary, avoidant, ambivalent about fitting in…” Yeah. that’s certainly me. Except that I don’t ‘dislike large parties’ per-se…only until I’ve got a few rum and cokes in me. But there, it all goes wong…”not dominant, unassertive, prudent, unadventurous, worrying, frequently second guesses self.” Totally not me. I’m the opposite of passive. I’m not particulary crazy-adventerous, but I certainly value a good run of well-placed distruction of public property. And I think it mis-interprets my answers about how much i’m ‘concerned with being different than others’ as a tendency toward conformity. Really, I just don’t care what people think, in general. Strange. Wonder how it came up with that stuff? I think it’s a generalization. Like somehow ‘introverted’ is always equated with ‘passive. non-assertive.’ Well, i am certainly both ’somewhat socially awkward’ and patently dominant in a lot of situations. Unfortunately, in certain circles, that’s likely called ’scociopathic’ - but hey. What are you going to do?
