Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

INFP, for what it's worth. The Big Five personality traits at least have the virtue of being based on personality surveys and seems to hold for Westerners, with other cultures, YMMV. It has some cross-species value, and has been applied to chimps, with the added trait of Dominance needing to be added. I grant that 'more scientifically grounded than Myers-Briggs' is a low bar.

Um no, that is far too simplistic. 

There is just life. Sometimes the bad do well and sometimes the good fail. Sometimes you can be poor and moral, and others can be rich and fucking dicks. 

There is just life. I will never apologize for posting, and reposting this following video.

I’ve never taken a personality test (and can’t imagine why I ever would), but if I had to pick a personality type, it would probably be D.F.P.M.

I'm an INTP. That is very common for scientists.

I've taken both of these several times and get different results depending on the day.
