I'm sure everyone is aware of the personality types theory, as popularized by Carl Jung and later modified by Briggs-Myers. According to their test, you are given a letter that represents one of two traits in four different categories:
Extraversion vs. Introversion
Sensing vs. Intuition
Thinking vs. Feeling
Judging vs. Perceiving
Each trait has a letter; for example, I scored as INTJ (introversion, intuition, thinking, judging). Further, each of the scores will put you into one of four different 'temperaments:' Guardian, Idealist, Artisan, or Rational. Each of these temperaments is further divided into two categories, and each of those into two types. Each is unique, and have really cool names. My tree went like this:
Rational -> Coordinator -> Mastermind (INTJ)
Therefore, I am a Mastermind. Masterminds are apparently apt leaders, but do not desire to lead until other have displayed their inability to lead. Masterminds are rare (less than 1% of the population), very introverted, highly rational, aggressively open-minded, and are supposed to be the ultimate utilitarians. All that fits me very well, except the utilitarian part, I think.
For me, this whole personality type thing is a lot like choosing a class in an MMO...I can't help but love it (I like my title lots, too).
So, for anyone else who wants to find out what class you are, click here:

After you're done with the test, you will get your letter descriptors and a break down of how you scored. There will be a link that says "____ type descriptor by D. Keirsey." Click that for an in-depth explanation of how you scored.
So go ahead and take the test real quick, and share how you scored!

I will try anything with anything, and am often found doing stupid things to expnsive things (See WiiM4) for no good reason.
However, I do like being in the same catagory as Newton >.>

The Portrait of the Crafter (ISTP)
The Crafter Artisans are not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, they are also directive and attentive in their social roles. Though directive like their Promoter counterparts, their directiveness is leavened by a good deal of attentiveness and seclusiveness. They do not approach strangers readily, but once in contact do not hesitate to tell them what to do. And they can be quite forceful in this, such that others tend to do their bidding.

The Portait of the Teacher (ENFJ)
The Idealists called Teachers are abstract in their thought and speech, cooperative in their style of achieving goals, and directive and extraverted in their interpersonal relations. Learning in the young has to be beckoned forth, teased out from its hiding place, or, as suggested by the word "education," it has to be "educed." by an individual with educative capabilities. Such a one is the eNFj, thus rightly called the educative mentor or Teacher for short. The Teacher is especially capable of educing or calling forth those inner potentials each learner possesses. Even as children the Teachers may attract a gathering of other children ready to follow their lead in play or work. And they lead without seeming to do so.
Teachers expect the very best of those around them, and this expectation, usually expressed as enthusiastic encouragement, motivates action in others and the desire to live up to their expectations. Teachers have the charming characteristic of taking for granted that their expectations will be met, their implicit commands obeyed, never doubting that people will want to do what they suggest. And, more often than not, people do, because this type has extraordinary charisma.
The Teachers are found in no more than 2 or 3 percent of the population. They like to have things settled and arranged. They prefer to plan both work and social engagements ahead of time and tend to be absolutely reliable in honoring these commitments. At the same time, Teachers are very much at home in complex situations which require the juggling of much data with little pre-planning. An experienced Teacher group leader can dream up, effortlessly, and almost endlessly, activities for groups to engage in, and stimulating roles for members of the group to play. In some Teachers, inspired by the responsiveness of their students or followers, this can amount to genius which other types find hard to emulate. Such ability to preside without planning reminds us somewhat of an Provider, but the latter acts more as a master of ceremonies than as a leader of groups. Providers are natural hosts and hostesses, making sure that each guest is well looked after at social gatherings, or that the right things are expressed on traditional occasions, such as weddings, funerals, graduations, and the like. In much the same way, Teachers value harmonious human relations about all else, can handle people with charm and concern, and are usually popular wherever they are. But Teachers are not so much social as educational leaders, interested primarily in the personal growth and development of others, and less in attending to their social needs.
Quite interesting...
Remember, the answer is always 42.

The Counselor
Although they are happy working at jobs (such as writing) that require solitude and close attention, Counselors do quite well with individuals or groups of people, provided that the personal interactions are not superficial, and that they find some quiet, private time every now and then to recharge their batteries.
Counselors are scarce, little more than one percent of the population, and can be hard to get to know, since they tend not to share their innermost thoughts or their powerful emotional reactions except with their loved ones. They are highly private people, with an unusually rich, complicated inner life.
Blessed with vivid imaginations, Counselors are often seen as the most poetical of all the types, and in fact they use a lot of poetic imagery in their everyday language. Their great talent for language-both written and spoken-is usually directed toward communicating with people in a personalized way. Counselors are highly intuitive and can recognize another's emotions or intentions - good or evil - even before that person is aware of them. Counselors themselves can seldom tell how they came to read others' feelings so keenly. This extreme sensitivity to others could very well be the basis of the Counselor's remarkable ability to experience a whole array of psychic phenomena.
