I'm another member of the INFJ clan it seems. I find their descriptions of this personality 'type' unnervingly accurate.

ENTJ, all the way down the line...

Same here, an (uncommonly artistic & smpathetic, but otherwise...) ENTJ, all through.

Actually, having read the in-depth INTJ analogy, I feel that it describes me way better than ENTJ. That's it, my decision is concrete: I'm INTJ.

If I were not so introverted, I would invite you to join the club. :ltcapd:

No you don't. I'm gatecrashing. Ha! Oh, waiiiiit, I have to be introverted...

Yes sorry, gate crashers are too noisy. At our club we sit in corners as far from each other as possible, quietly writing away and trying to ignore the noisy breathing of the others. Some of us quietly plan grand schemes, that they would implement, if it did not involve speaking to other people. Most of us do not have a sense of humor. Those of us who do, quietly giggle behind our hands and blush a lot.

INTP, not sure I'd have guessed at that one. One of the rarest types according to Wikipedia, about 1-5% of the population. Clearly not the most successful type then, in a Darwinian sense.

Rather unsurprisingly at this stage I'm also an INTJ. Did the test but had been made to do the full official one when I worked for a firm of occupational psychologists who put great weight on these things. Was an INTJ then too - predictably not a good secretary though! Much happier as a court correspondent which kind of fits the career choices they give with the Internet test. It was part of my job to score the M-B forms when they came in from different companies.

 

Not much of a shock there's so many of us on here though. It makes sense. You'd probably see a similar number of introverts on any social networking site - though it does seem INTJ's are particularly fond of their pens. I wonder if it's just a collector personality type or a fountain pen type - do many people here collect other things for example? If so what? Wonder if we'd find other correlations there.

Another INTJ here, ha! Remarkable because the list of fellow INTJ's are people I 've always admired- Rand, Jefferson, Disney, Paglia, Ike and even U.S. Grant... In fact I often find myself obsessing over Rand and Disney and the source of their inspiration and genius

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
