My Personality Defect

May 27th, 2005 at 1:16 pm by David Farrar

I always wondered what is my main personality defect. Those who know me would not tend to disagree with the finding – a smart ass!

Smartass
You are 85% Rational, 100% Extroverted, 57% Brutal, and 71% Arrogant.
You are the Smartass! You are rational, extroverted, brutal, and
arrogant. You probably consider people who are emotional and gentle to
be big pussies who are obviously in lesser stature than you. You have
many flaws, despite your seeming intelligence and cool-headedness. For
instance, you aren’t very nice. In fact, you’re probably an asshole.
And you are conceited and self-centered. Not only that, but you are
very loud and vocal about all this, seeing as how you are extroverted.
There is no better way to describe you than as a “smartass”, I’m
afraid. Perhaps just “ass” would do, too. But that’s a little less
literary and descriptive. At any rate, your main personality defect is
the fact that you are self-centered, mean, uncaring, and brutally
logical.

To put it less negatively:

1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive.

2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle.

4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.

Compatibility:

Your exact opposite is the Emo Kid.

Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Capitalist Pig, the Braggart, and the Sociopath.

If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you
could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42%
Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is
close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well.
Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can
determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored
near fifty percent for certain traits.

The other personality types:

The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

    Ack! I’m a starving artist!

    How wimpy is that? Just because I said I wouldn’t work on death row, stupid test. stupid stupid.

    heheheh

    Starving Artist
    You are 14% Rational, 42% Extroverted, 14% Brutal, and 57% Arrogant.
    You are the Starving Artist! You are more intuitive than logical, and are primarily guided by your heart and emotions. You are also very introverted and gentle. Of course, this does not mean that you do not have an ego. In fact, you are surprisingly arrogant for someone so emotional and gentle. This is why you are best described as a starving artist. You are very introspective and quite sure of yourself, as any accomplished artist is, yet your views are impractical, guided by feelings, and overly gentle. You probably find math, logic, and similar intellectual pursuits offensive to your artistic sensibilities, and you prefer the open-endedness of artistry because then you know you can never truly have a wrong answer. So really you have no reason to be arrogant, you big doofus, because the skills you value (emotion, spirit, art, etc.) in yourself are valuable only on a subjective level, meaning your arrogance is purely masturbatory. In short, your personality is defective because you are arrogant, introverted, introspective, gentle, and thoroughly irrational…posessing most of the traits needed to be a starving–and useless–artist. So get out there, write a few short stories that are allegories for the spirit, and starve!

    I’m a smart ass too: You are 71% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 71% Brutal, and 57% Arrogant.

    But I suppose I’m getting on the cusp of Extroverted and Arrogant.

    “I am Robot”

    I remember David from his days at the red cross,when I worked at the BNZ Molesworth st.
    It seems I’m way too gentle to comment on whether he is a smart ass or not.

    Hehe – I am a “Haughty Intellectual”: 57% Rational, 14% Extroverted, 42% Brutal, and 71% Arrogant.

    Best line:
    “You probably think of yourself as an intellectual, and you would like everyone to know it.” Is there any blogger that doesn’t think that? :-)

    Hand-Raiser here

    You are 85% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 28% Brutal, and 28% Arrogant

    You are the Hand-Raiser, that annoying kid in class who always had an answer for everything. No doubt, as a child you probably sat in the front of the class, anxiously waving your hand back and forth in the air while your teacher desperately tried to avoid calling on you because you were the ONLY fucking kid that answered her questions. Clearly, the key traits of your personality are your rationality and your extroversion. You are like a little talkative calculator, in other words. You also tend to be rather gentle and less arrogant than most people. So what is your defect, then? Well, you’re boring, and when you’re not boring, you are just plain annoying with your ultra-logical responses and constant need to talk to others. So keep waving that hand in the air, son. I’m still not calling on you. You are too logical, you talk too much, and your humility and gentleness only makes me hate you more, because they make me feel like I almost SHOULDN’T hate you. But I do. Big time.

    Robot
    You are 85% Rational, 28% Extroverted, 42% Brutal, and 42% Arrogant.
    You are the Robot! You are characterized by your rationality. In fact, this is really ALL you are characterized by. Like a cold, heartless machine, you are so logical and unemotional that you scarcely seem human. For instance, you are very humble and don’t bother thinking of your own interests, you are very gentle and lack emotion, and you are also very introverted and introspective. You may have noticed that these traits are just as applicable to your laptop as they are to a human being. In short, your personality defect is that you don’t really HAVE a personality. You are one of those annoying, super-logical people that never gets upset or flustered. Unless, of course, you short circuit.

    To put it less negatively:

    1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive.

    2. You are more INTROVERTED than extroverted.

    3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

    4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.

    Whilst I’m certainly somewhat of a smartass (though I’m getting better) I am a Robot, which was completely unsurprising (was close to 50% in three of the catrgories however)
