I was introduced to MBTI several years ago, and while I prefer to take it with a grain of salt (categorizing people can be dangerous) learning that I am an INTJ (insert salt granule here) has been enlightening and self-confirming.

I prefer not to do a video because regardless of my incredible good looks I hate being videotaped or photographed on purpose. No one is truly themselves on camera and I can't stand being fake. No offense to video-makers. To each his own. Some people like Julia Roberts. Some people would like to see a Julia Roberts vs. Edward Scissorhands Death-Match. We're all just people. Kind of.

So anyway, since discovering INTJ I have been curious which tastes and quirks I have in common with other so-called INTJs. Because so far I don't wear black trench coats (just black pea-coats) or listen to electronic music or have a massive social complex. Maybe I'm not an INTJ after all. Or maybe I am and all those other nerds out there (hey- no judgement nerds) are just playing into a stereotype that empowers their misanthropy. You tell me.

What I Like:

Edward Scissorhands (bet you didn't see that one coming)
Abraham Lincoln
C.S. Lewis
Electric Guitar Solos
Zombies (O how I love The Walking Dead)
The Smiths
Illustration
Chopin
Steampunk (in theory)
Lord of the Rings
Jane Eyre
Pirates
Graphic Design
Dracula
Gray Sweaters
Thought-Provoking Discussion
Arrested Development (the cancelled TV series)
John Steinbeck

What I Dislike:
Having to Pose for a Photograph
Touching
Talking on the Phone
Solicitors
Having to Laugh at Things That Are Not Funny
People Who Think They Are Funny But Are Wrong
People Who Think They Are Logical But Are Wrong
People Who Think They Are INTJs But Are ENFPs
Emotional Manipulation In Any Form
Julia Roberts
Pop Music
Reality Television
Clowns
Spiders
Public Restrooms
Public Speaking
Conformity

You tell me.

    Loved your blog. Few places made me really chuckle- you NTs have a cool way of writing.

    And I vote you are VERY INTJ.

    From a very ENFP (:

    It's personality theory, not personality cookie cutter. Be you.

    I like and dislike pretty much the same things as you do. I bet many INTJs do as well. Edward Scissorhands is also one of my favorite movies, so, no surprise there. I think if an INTJ wears a trench coat, it's only because cloaks and capes are no longer in fashion.
