Kate Flournoy

@kate-flournoy Maybe it’s the website I took it on- I was taking it on a different one until I discovered 16 personalities, and every time I’ve taken it there I’ve scored ENFJ-A. So maybe I really am ENFJ… I don’t know. I give up for now; maybe I’ll try again in a few days. 😛 😉

But yeah, strange writerly things… I have this strange habit of…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Wait, so I’m dominantly ENFJ now? WHAT HAPPENED TO ENTJ?!?! *holds head in hands* I don’t think I can take much more of this. 😛

*goes back and reads the post that started it all*

A realization I had as a writer the other night is that it’s a bad idea to eat half a clove of raw garlic in one bite- yesss, preciousss, we’s likes it…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I didn’t mean that your -er- crying habits as you’ve so… so picturesquely put it- were bad, I just wasn’t sure which personality types were frequent cry-ers. Aaand… this is so far back in the conversation you probably missed it, so I’ll ask again: I was just starting to figure out the whole personality thing, but the last two…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Oooooh… that does make sense.

@kate-flournoy I’ve been meaning to ask, what’s exactly is the difference between an affirmative and a turbulent?

@jess Yeah, it’s Corissa, not Corrisa. Two s’s, not two r’s. 😉

Hey, @kate-flournoy‘s an INFP, aren’t you? Does my memory serve me correctly? We need some insight over here! 😀

@jess Exactly. Of course, there’s a time and place where “breaking down” is perfectly fine. Funerals, weddings, even high-school graduations (there’s one fellow I know who cries every time he tries to give a speech when one of his kids graduates), those are times when it can be appropriate to cry (as long as you don’t completely lose control and…[Read more]

People who act only on emotion and against all logic are bewildering.

@hope YEEEEEESSSS!!! I just don’t get it. I hate it when people do that in movies- I usually try to find some rational reason and grasp onto that because I don’t like to think that there are actually people out there who act purely based on emotion and entirely against logic.…[Read more]

Guysssssssssss *wails* I get home from church and get 38 emails…almost all of them from this thread. *pouts* I can’t keep up with you all.

And now, @Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise, @Kate-flournoy, @Jess, on to INTJs.

Kate is pretty much right. The logic. The suppressing emotions and not showing it because it’s ‘just’ a feeling and isn’t what…[Read more]

@corissa-maiden-of-praise My brother is an IN/SFJ, and I completely agree with what Kate said about them. Btw @kate-flournoy You’re really good at this personality thing. I love studying the personalities (I spent weeks researching them for my own and my characters’). I study them so I can see how and why people act, though.
@dragon-snapper I talk…[Read more]

INTJs possess emotions, but as emotions do not fit in any logical pattern dealing with them can be difficult, so they find it easier to put them aside. Helpful though this may seem on the surface, it actually undermines their confidence and can lead to insecurity.

Yes, @kate-flournoy, this so much! I do have emotions (sometimes contrary to…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I thought you might. 😉

And I think you’re right about the T vs F thing; I can’t remember what it was last time I scored ENTJ (the last couple of times I’ve scored ENFJ-A?! Seriously, I was just getting it figured out and they threw another letter on? C’mon! *calms down* Can Professor Kateses gives us an explanationses, please?),…[Read more]

@corissa-maiden-of-praise I’m doubting I’m actually that extroverted, like what @kate-flournoy said. I know for a fact that I can be very introverted. I guess what I’m mainly getting at is that not much of what an ENFJ is pertains to me. And I’ll admit I didn’t answer all the questions to their full potential. 😀 *guilty smile*

Talking to things…[Read more]

*shudder* I would NOT like to be an INTJ full time, no offense. XD

So tell us, @jess, @hope, what is it like to be an INTJ full time? We’s is curious abouts your mindses, preciousss. What quirks or other differences do you think are unique to your personality type?

What about you, @kate-flournoy? Even if you aren’t one, you’ve studied the types…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Okay, thanks for clearing that up.

I think the test can be different depending on what day you take it too. Some days we have more introvert tendencies than others. Normally I score about 75/25 towards extrovert (give or take a few), but one day I only scored 54/46, so I was barely extrovert. 😛 It can be confusing (and it’s even…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Well, turns out I’m an ENFJ; I don’t even know what that means… Besides, I sometimes think I belong in my own world. You’ll find that there is hardly anyone who is exactly like me. And I understand that there are many people in the world like that…just like the rest of us, but for some reason, I think the test is being generous.…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper WARNING: do not be surprised if you get more than one result. I’ve gotten three, (ENTP, ENTJ, and ENFJ) but after reading descriptions and stuff I think that ENTJ is accurate. (although I’m not certain that I don’t have some of the empathy of an NF like Kate has; I can’t say that I don’t sense the emotions of those around me,…[Read more]

I was making logical, detached decisions. I’d lost my empathy. I literally could not feel the emotions of those around me. I was completely calm and collected and in control— not even uncertain inwardly.

Yes…? Welcome to my life. (Most of the time) @kate-flournoy
@corissa-maiden-of-praise, I don’t know if I would trust that ice cream place. 😛
