Mark me down for whatever type things these tests are fucking stupid.

[Eddie Teach]

Something with a J I'd imagine.

[Caliga]

I'm also an INTJ.

[Ed Anger]

The test called me hitler.

[ulmont]

Meh, these tests (the online variants anyway) are subject to trivial manipulation.  While INTJ is probably closest to my personality, depending on the day I also score ENTJ, ISTJ, or ESTJ.

[Fate]

I'm also an INTJ personality type. I guess I shouldn't be surprised we're overrepresented in a place like languish.

Based on the number of overly pedantic assholes here, you should assume we're all actually Grumbler.
