    Default What's my type?

    Describe your upbringing. Did it have any kind of religious or structured influence? How did you respond to it?

    Raised by a Conservative, religious family. I was brought up around church. Went 2-3 days a week. I couldn't watch certain movies, i couldnt listen to certain music. Around age 11 I started questioning religion. Was told I'll go to hell if I do that. Kept questioning and at age 14 I put my foot down and stopped going to church. It was a terrible time after that. I escaped by reading fantasy,sci-fi, and horror books. I snuck the music/mobies/games I wanted. I usually all through high school would try to just stay at my friends houses. Did a lot of sports growing up. Played a lot of video games and read/write. Debate club. I'm 30 now, atheist and not conservative

    • How good are you at strategizing? Do you easily break up projects into manageable tasks? Or do you have a tendency to wing projects and improvise as you go?

    No. I don't appease others. I usually question, debate.

    • Do you break rules often? Do you think authority should be challenged, or that they know better? If you do break rules, why?

    Yes. I will break rules if they don't make sense and bring up why they don't make sense. (I wanted to be a lawyer)

    I am a cynical and distrusting person a lot of the time.

    I am always up for a debate and I enjoy talking politics even at a young age.

    I am a highly competitive person with sports, gaming and work.

    When it comes to doing something creative or abstract I will take my time to figure out what I want. But on the other hand the physical world if I have a idea or want to do something, I'll leap before I look.

    I only really care what the closed ones in my life think about me. Either way I'll do what I decide to do in the end though.

    With stressful situations I'm mostly calm and mindful however if I see something in my head not go my way I lose my calm and become rather impatient. Example: I got locked out of my house at 1am, no locksmith open. My wife is rather patient on trying to figure it out while after about a hour or 2 I'm ready to break the lock.

    Around my wife, family, and friends I am a goofy person and look to make people laugh.

    I am a geeky person. If you didn't know me you wouldn't know. I've had people tell me I come off intimidating until they started to talk to me and also say I'm one the nerdiest people they have met.

    At work I like to do my own thing. I don't like to be bothered. While I worked in retail I hated being asked questions. For instance someone asks what aisle is dog food even though there's a gigantic dog food sign above them. I always looked at them like they were incompetent. I now work in a job that requires fixing and problem solving which is much better. If I was boss for instance, as long as the work gets done I don't care if people talk and have fun...just get the work done.

    When doing work I do what I think makes the most Rational And Logical sense most of the time.

    I am a stubborn person.

    I do tend to get bored easily and will zone out if something is boring.

    I have a very organized work environment while my home life is what I call controlled chaos. I know where things are while others wouldn't.

    If there's something to get done and I don't find it interesting I used to put it off but as I've gotten older I will tackle it head on right away so I can just relax later.

    Rebellious

    I don't like having people tell me what to do or manage me. I'm more of a person to just do my own thing.

    Strategic person in general.

    I will usually speak up when needed. So if there's something unfair happening or someone being bossy I will usually call them out.

    I consider myself fairly imaginative.

    I love gaming, table top rpgs, reading fantasy and science fiction novels.

    Impatient

    Open minded

    ambitious

    I like to understand systems and how things work. Including abstract systems like magic the gathering.

    My wife says I remind her of Geralt from the Witcher, Han Solo from Star Wars and Dr Ian Malcom from Jurassic Park

    @Deathmetaljoker

    Really sounds like LSI from what you described. I'll try to explain my reasonings later maybe but I'm too busy right now.

    Geralt is an ISTj - LSI... I think you could be a gamma-like beta LSI. Your values kind of tend toward gamma values. It's weird since you was raised by a religious family.
