Writer's Block: Taking It Personally

[Error: unknown template qotd]

Short answer: I think those tests are bullshit, and me saying hey, I'm an ENTP! is about as useful as saying hey, I'm a Leo/Virgo cusp! In fact, in my case the astrological sign is closer to describing my personality, but it's not like it's saying a lot anyway. The profiles are always filled with phrases like: "They tend to have a perverse sense of humor as well, and enjoy playing devil's advocate." Or: "Sometimes they exaggerate problems and overreact to stumbling blocks, but generally they are positive and their natural pride and stubborn streak keeps them from giving up." Those sound awfully specific, don't they? But honestly, how many people wouldn't identify with those statements?

Pop psychology usually pisses me off, though.

I only recently learned that when you're born on the day that I was, you're only technically a Leo, but you're really supposed to be more like a Leo/Virgo hybrid, which actually fits me way more. Not that that makes me believe more in astrology or anything, but it is a fun fact!

CARS ARE NOT SAFE FROM ME, I'll

EAT THE TIRES OR SOMETHING

And miss out of the 80s? Pfft, no. Plus, then I wouldn't be the oldest sibling, which is horrifying beyond comprehension.

You'll walk into the side of the car, anyway.

Maybe.

But then you will be devoured, so it WILL NOT EVEN MATTER.

Wait, isn't Bryce older than you?

He's only twenty! I'm the oldest by far, and a leader among us let me tell you. He looks older than he is and I think I might look younger, though, so people get confused a lot, they think he's older or that we're twins.

You're the sinister mastermind, dispatching your artistic martial arts ninja troop of two. And yeah, I thought you were about the same age. NOW I KNOW.

It's more confusing if you actually meet us both, because we actually follow all those fictional twin cliches for the most part. Exact same height, virtually identical interests, similar hairstyles and facial features and we've almost always had the same jobs and it goes on. One of our coworkers at GameStop said that we were like a pair of socks.
