What kind of personality do you have?

[Boycey]

I found this on Saturday while looking for something on the internet.

http://www.16personalities.com/

I took the test and thought the result was a pretty fair reflection of me. I came back as ISTP which apparently only 5% of people are.
An introverted thinker and an emotional cripple . Sums me up pretty well :-)

Have a go, only took a couple of minutes.

Amazingly all these different personality types sound remarkably complimentary to the people who have them. Aren't we all great?

Did any of you think it was accurate??

Going beyond the headlines and looking at the overview of your type it said my weaknesses were

•Can be very stubborn. ISTPs are not too sensitive when it comes to conflicts and criticism, but they can become very blunt and irritated if someone tries to criticize their habits, lifestyle, or ideas.
•Private and reserved. Surprisingly, ISTPs can be very difficult to get to know as they keep most of their thoughts and ideas to themselves, especially when it comes to private or sensitive matters.
•Get bored quickly. People with the ISTP personality type may find it difficult to remain focused on something for an extended amount of time, with their thoughts drifting off to more interesting things.
•May be insensitive. ISTPs tend to be very practical and logical, and they may often inadvertently hurt other people's feelings by failing to recognize the importance of emotions.
•Enjoy taking risks. ISTP personalities are big risk takers and may often do that simply for the sake of having fun. For instance, they may escalate a conflict with a colleague just to see how they react.
•Dislike commitments. ISTPs like to review their obligations on a daily basis instead of committing to something for a very long time. This can cause significant problems in their romantic relationships.

I could see my other half nodding at all them especially the insensitive one

What are those sliding percentage scales meant to mean?
Mind, energy, nature, etc, etc.

It might be interesting if we got someone else (say the other half) to do the test on our behalves and see do the results remotely match. 

This suggestion comes with a serious health warning.

Same as that... Have you read the overview??

It basically tells me I'm a WUM liking to argue with other people for the sake of it... even if I agree with what people are saying I still like to play Devil's Advocate.

Sure why else would I be on here!!!

I would say they aren't too far away with a lot of what the article says!!
