'I'm curious what you mean by well-dressed. I wear professional clothing for work, but there isn't anything I like better than a broken-in pair of blue jeans!
I agree with SittingWonderDuck: I'm not sure that my one creative talent is really all that creative. I enjoy landscape photography, and it makes me very happy; I can look at a mountain and take the...
Well, I can definitively say that I am NOT a neat freak. However, I have a set way that certain things need to be (shower curtain closed, toilet seat cover down, etc., etc.) I usually clean in...
I agree that I tend to show love more through doing than saying. But again, I believe that actions are better than mere words. For instance, I have two nieces whom I love dearly; I would literally...
I love Risk; it's one of my favorite games. Unfortunately, none of my friends will play against me anymore... *something, something, bloodthirsty*
I LOVE to strategize and plan and think up ways to get from Point A to Point B. I love organizing people, and moving them in the direction I think they should go. Pretty much, life is like a RISK...
Well, when I need help, I will say so. And I appreciate actually getting help when I ask for it :) And if I don't want help, I appreciate not having to fend off repeated attempts to help. Mostly,...
I should probably do laundry. And I need to get my car washed. I really want a new car. *a lengthy internal debate about buying a new car proceeded* I should probably eat the rest of the...
I think this is absolutely true. I am completely non-religious, but I have a very strong - and unwavering, imagine that - sense of what is right and wrong. I very rarely see a reason to compromise...
And I would add to WickedQueen's response, that the fact that you're in a multi-year relationship with your ESTJ means that while he may not need you the way you think he should, he wants you. ...
I get very irritable when tired, and it takes great willpower to not bite people's heads off - both literally and figuratively - when I am tired. I try not to be around people when that happens, as...
I suppose it depends on your definition of creative. I can't draw or write, but as an attorney, I can take little pieces of a story and weave them together into something bigger. I love...
I think this is an oversimplification, as respect has nothing to do with being authoritarian. I respect people that are knowledgeable, capable, and worked to get where they are at in life. I...
First, yes, I am very driven and need to be doing something constantly. I will do what needs to be done, but it will be done on the schedule that I feel it needs to be done on. The whole...
I've rediscovered the site lol!! In terms of my conflict with another person, it depends on my relationship with the other person involved. If I don't know them (or know them and don't care), I...
Failure. But not because it signifies wasted time, but because it signifies that I did not succeed at something I set out to accomplish.
Exactly this. I know many people, but can count on one hand (with fingers left over) the people I consider a close friend.
My best friend is an ESTJ, but much more introverted and feeling that I am. She and I have our bumps, but we never have to second guess what the other is thinking or feeling. If we made dinner...
I wonder if Western culture's slow shift towards gender equality will raise the number of female T's. Even though the testing is standardized, I would think that socialization has some effect on how...
Well, all I can say is that if you were my employee, I would fire you. Without apology, and with no regret, I might add.
Ah, checked out the INFP thread, and NOW this makes sense to me! This is what makes me relax: 49130
Mine is more like: Lead, follow, or get out of my way! :)
I agree that watching a baseball game on TV is a lesser experience. I'm not a huge fan, but can get into it if actually at a game. And the Bears?! Really?!?! Lol
I don't play sports (I love to weightlift, however!) That being said, I am a HUGE fan of football and hockey, the Minnesota Vikings and Wild, respectively! Sadly, the Vikings are and forever will...
YES! I am a very touch-oriented person. I am always touching my friends and family, whether it be a hug, pat on the back, or what a good friend has referred to as my shoulder bump (I have a...
Weighing in as an ESTJ... Before even starting an argument with a person (regardless of personality type), you have to figure out what winning really means. Getting them to agree with you? ...
I am not Christian, and am a borderline atheist and most definitely anti-religion. To me, religion is a massive excuse used by millions to excuse the inexcusable (e.g., witch burnings, the Crusades,...
Bachelor's in Political Science and Criminal Justice Studies J.D. (juris doctorate, the super fantastic law degree!) (while it has doctorate in it, it is comparable to a master's degree)
Hated words/phrases: um, ah, like, well, i think, and other verbal fillers. Saw what it is you want to say and leave it at that!
Wheeeeee, I won!!! lol Next step: ruler of the WORLD!!
laikta, that's funny you say that because the first thing that popped into my mind was a flame!
I think that the two big things that I look for in others and think that I can offer are: (1) honesty, (2) loyalty. For the third part, I look for someone who is accepting of me (I know I can be...
I agree with your mom and laikta; once my mind is made up and a plan of action is determined, it is full speed ahead. It is getting to the point of deciding that, yes, THIS is what I'm going to do. ...
Am I missing something here? What is the point of this, exactly?
Well, mine said Auditory at 6, and Visual and Kinesthetic tied at 5 each. Personally, though, I think I am a visual learner more than auditory learner. I comprehend more of what I read in a letter,...
Loyal!
@Marlowe, when I've been in your position, I give a sympathetic hug/shoulder pat/etc. (depending on how touchy-feely the other person is and how well I know them). And I tell them how sorry I am. I...
Hello, my name is Kate (screen-name KJo), and I am an attorney. I prosecute criminal cases and represent labor union members, all of which gives me a forum to be the BOSS, mwahahaha! In my spare...
Not really a rule-breaker. Mostly, I think that the rules are there for a reason, and should be followed until they are changed or become obviously wrong. Unless said rule is a speed limit, in...
I'm a very strong 8w7, sx/so variant.
2, 5, and 9. As for reasons: human rights must be protected, but we also need to jobs to feed ourselves and there's no way to get a job without good schooling.
@MooseAndSquirrel: I'm a great wing-girl!! :wink:
Thank you, ma'am! It just fits :)
@bstew: I'm not arguing about whether it is an ethics question or not; frankly, that is irrelevant. As I said in my reply, right is right and wrong is wrong. Executing a person for a crime they...
I, too, have been accused of being a fixer lol!
Hmm, lets see... 1. I have my shirts arranged first by business or casual, then by shirts, pants, and skirts, then shirts by sleeve-length and color within sleeve length. Pants and skirts are...
sorry, double post...
And this is an excellent illustration of the differences between our types. Right is right and wrong is wrong; the whole every fiber business impacts that analysis precisely ZERO.
Purplefang - re: arguments and space... I really agree with everything that Marlowe posted above. it is right on the money with my experience! Another consideration is, too, that when I get...'
