Member Questionnaire (Nunki)

[Nunki]

This is Socionics not MBTI. This is Europe not L.A. Anyway, seeing you're speaking zyztemz already, what is your MBTI curse?

Yes . . . my impression is that mentioning the MBTI around here is a good way to give rise to pitchfork-wielding mobs. But anyway, my MBTI type is INFJ. If I weren't an INFJ, I'd be an INTP.

If you disregard reinin what do you think of the various quadra descriptions?
