Would you like to learn a little more about yourself and your fellow posters on Free Republic? If so, you might enjoy this Freeper Research Project.
It began on another thread where people were testing themselves for “nerdiness”. Great fun was had by all.
Along the way, Freeper patton posted a link to the Jung personality test. What an adventure! I took the test for the first time and found out I am an INFJ (I=44, N=75, F=25, J=25).
Because we were sharing the results of our tests on that thread, I was pleasantly surprised to discover three other Freepers with the same personality type. And, naturally, being curious – some of us went to yet another link to find out what the code means and what famous people are INFJs:
The strange part is that INFJ’s are the smallest in the general population, but among those posting on the thread, INFJs were in the majority. Does that mean that INFJ’s are drawn to Free Republic or to those kinds of tests, or are more willing to discuss such things?
At any rate, it is a delightful musing about this forum, the posters we are drawn to (or against): does the Jung personality test have anything useful to say to us?
If you are interested or perhaps would just like to have some fun, take the test and check out the results. And if you’re willing, post your results here on this thread so that we can all “compare notes”.
The results so far:
INFJ: Indy Pendance, Knitting a Conundrum, Grey-whiskers, Alamo-Girl INTJ: John O (67,62,25,67), hosepipe (11,50,19,56), Cyclopean Squid (44,100,62,56) INTP: marron ENFJ: .30Carbine (1,50,75,22) , phantomworker (39,57,40,12)
Heh heh heh.
Makes for wonderful imagery.
Welcome to our not-so-exclusive club. There are so many masterminds on this thread that we have become an army of generals--such an assemblage cannot work. Think of the Yankees.
nice triple-fife
I think I'll donate that particular line to the Benevolent Tagline Beggar Trust (aka "Tweekie")
Sounds like a plan.
And thankfully not one I came up with.
in common with many aspects of INTJ behavior, rendering the NMSD judgement is not harsh - though it can seem that way.
NMSD is not a derogatory assessment, merely a recognition of the fact of insuperable incompatability.
Now I remember. He told the procter he was excused from taking it since he invented the test.
didja get tha obscure reference?
did I even need to ask?
by gum! you have plumbed the depths of the mystery!

"Beedeebeedeebeedeebee"
I do know that I cannot make that noise.
Do you really want to play the Tolkien game with me?
I strongly suspect you know this through thorough empiricism.
I should ask the Chylde about this, yes?
naw... 'es jest puttin' in a tolkien effort izall
Umm.. I will vociferously deny ever doing a ticked off Tweelie impression.
hrmn... I wonder... what group got the great strategos Bellisarius?
Biases: E-1 N-50 T-1 J-67
The analysis part was very interesting to me, too. It mentioned tinkering and salesmanship. Well, I work part time as a mechanic and part time at the family retail business! Too funny.
I was INFJ too.
your voice isn't high enough pitched to do a Tweelie impression, ticked-off or satiated.
besides, this is not a venue for droid porn anyway.
TweeKie, otoh, is the decerebrate lame-a$$ R2D2-wannabe droid under discussion.
Maybe that's what's happening to me as well. I used to be an ENTJ, now I'm an INTJ. I don't think I'm all that introverted, but I sure can't be bothered with people as much as before!
