		<description>Wow.  Now I don&#039;t feel so weird for over planning my transitions.  I do it especially when I am going from something I am comfortable or like, to something less enjoyable or relaxing.

I find the Meyrs Briggs very helpful.  I particularly find it helpful in communicating with my colleagues when I am having a bad day.  I know that I am angry because of the way I am built (INTJ), that I hate going over and over the tiny details, that I hate changed decisions/input/criticism after the decision has been made, and that I hate explaining my thought process if it takes more than a minute, not because they are mean or stupid.  And then I can acknowledge that they have their own conversational quirks, etc.  And I can relax.

I find it interesting to take it every now and then and see how my precentages change - last time I got S instead of N.  I still find social situations stressful, but no longer difficult.  Knowing that makes me much more relaxed and confident.</description>

		<description>No more than a horoscope? This is not the place for an MBTI debate but... really? Let&#039;s not pussyfoot around euphemisms here, I guess.

Also, that skepdic.com author seems to love the shotgun approach: just throw out as many arguments as possible and hope that something sticks. To name a few logical errors, there are blatantly unprecedented claims, as well as libel, association fallacy, and argument from ignorance.

Since you were so bold, let me be equally brash: you&#039;re wrong. And you&#039;re arrogant about it, just like me as a matter of fact. It&#039;s impolite to leave comments like that. Would you just walk up to a conversation among new strangers and say that, and then walk away? I sure hope not.

Sorry I just ripped you apart, though I do expect you will return the favor; because if it turns out I&#039;m wrong (which is always a possibility!), I&#039;d like you to point it out.</description>
