After taking a personality test with my co-workers yesterday, I had a hunch about forum posters. This should be interesting. This is just for fun, please don't take offense or change it to a political topic.

HaHa - I guess you've never taken a Meyers-Briggs personality test. They're often incorporated into team building workshops.
You end up with one from each of the following preferences:
Introversion or
Extroversion
Sensing or
Intuition
Thinking or
Feeling
Judgement or
Perception.
Hence, the ISTJ or ENFP

I have taken that (Myers Briggs) personality test at least three times in my life and each time, it has come out differently. But, oddly, I'm still me. And, I don't think that my friends or family would say my personality has changed much over the last 30 years.

MBTI ENFP at play, ENTP at work. I give different answers depending on the context!
I was married to a MBTI ISTJ, well, ahem, that was a problem. Sweet Christine is an ESFP - very much happy lounging on the beach with no plans!

I'm a little bi-polar so, honestly, it depends on the day

I don't necessarily agree with what they labeled me either but I do agree with the I. Somehow STJ brings out some E in me.

There's more than 16 kinds of people, but the MBTI exercise is about archetypes - the idea that there area distinct personality types that you are born with. I don't know, but I do know that you can learn behavior!

Everybody knows.
