Thanks for the comment... heh 
I don't see myself as artistic, but i see myself as wanting to be artistic. Maybe I'm just being too harsh on myself.
Also, yeah, MBTI tests seem scary accurate. I always get ISFP on them, and the description seems pretty close to me. I've read a lot about ISFP's in the past.
Also, the personality site says you got the same personality as Obama. heh You seem really friendly and kind, so I can see how ENFJ fits you
I remember seeing Obama cited as ENFJ quite a bit, yeah. I see myself as pretty friendly and chatty a little more often than not, but I also have my spells where I want to be myself, and can sometimes be seen zoning out. And I'm actually a bit of a wiseass at times and can be confrontational (see some of my political posts here
) but I'm not in that mode all of the time or think I should be, and I'm not one for temper tantrums. Thanks for the compliment though.
All the descriptions are idealized. Like INTJ's are supremely logical, ENTJ's get whatever they want done, etc. There's always a slight disconnect IMO between the descriptions and the individual, which is natural because these archetypes are theoretical. To go on a bit of a tangent...
There's a separate school of thought (besides socionics) that looks at giving you an MBTI type by arrangement of functions. Under the MBTI theory, each of the sixteen types are a unique arrangement of the eight psychological functions: the introverted and extroverted versions of Feeling, Thinking, Sensing, and Intuition. The former two categories are called judging functions because structure and rationalize the world around you and the information you take in (F and T are also the third dichotomy in a type) and the latter two are perceiving functions as they are the means by which you take in formation.
For example, an ISFP's four leading functions I think are arranged like this:
Introverted Feeling
Extroverted Sensing
Introverted Intuition
Extroverted Thinking
An introvert's primary function (first one listed) is the introverted and opposite category (judging/perceiving) of what the fourth letter is, basically. While an extrovert's primary function is the extroverted and follows the same category as what's expressed in the fourth letter. So, for ENFJ's:
Extroverted Feeling
Introverted Intuition
Extroverted Sensing
Introverted Thinking
This is one test that I found with a quick google search that tests people by the degree they express a preference for certain functions. You may get a result that disagrees with what you think: i just took it and got entp; I don't think I'm an entp. but really identifying with a type is at least partially a matter of how you see yourself and it's also influenced by how you might be feeling on a certain day. A lot of these mbti quizzes rate your extraversion according to questions like "you like to make lots of friends" "you talk to people a lot" "you place yourself nearer to the side of the room than the center" "you rapidly make friends at a new workplace" etc.
But yeah, check it out. Go hogwild on other personality tests too if it suits you. Look up the Enneagram or the Big Five, for example. This isn't hard science or anything, I'd recommend as just using it for fun and perhaps opportunities for growth if you so choose. my discovery of the MBTI in high school was one of the first things that got me to understand that people...are different. =P
