Doesn't surprise me. I'm an INTP, from what I've seen of others with that type, you're either very successful as somekind of "big picture" type (an architect, theoretical mathematician, etc) or you're an extremely isolated person who keeps to themselves as they ponder "big pictures".

I'm not one for the sort of sentimentalism intrinsic to other existentialists who have to solve the problem of life without dogma. Something about the assuredness of Kierkegaard's philosophy makes me think he stared nihilism in the face and recognized it as something mere philosophy couldn't solve (as opposed to the transcendental). This is not to say that dogma is more truthful, but it is to say that I see it as a better solution to human dread.

Typology is not nearly as mystic as things like horoscope. There's some validity to it, and there's something fun about its simplistic nature.

Of course, its fun until some smug know-it-all thinks he's the only person who ever noticed typology's flaws as a test

I guess we'll all have to take big 5 assessments from licensed psychologists for you to see the fun in anything
