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.

What you just described actually happens pretty often, it seems to me.

UNTIL my conditions are met, I said!

So your victory will be based in vague DEBTS TO THE PAAAST that annoy people because they don't really like feeling guilty even if it's a societal obligation, and will disappear the next time I have a concrete enemy?

I can live with that.

Whatever. Your guilt, it will haunt you foreeeeeeever and you'll make movies and write books about the injustice you committed and teach your children never to do it again until the next time and that's about as good as an intellectual victory, come on.

We'll forget about it and look at it as some sort of vague academic exercise eventually.
