konstantzusammenschaft. of course.

more stupid personality tests:



FACT:
You embody the German principle of Konstantzusammenschaft, which is best described in English (without using the obscure English word “sammenschaft”) as “eternal togethermanship”.
The Loverboy
Random Gentle Love Master (RGLMm)

Well-liked. Well-established. You are The Loverboy. Loverboys thrive in committed, steady relationships—as opposed to, say, Playboys, who want sex without too much attachment.

You’ve had many relationships and nearly all of them have been successful. You’re a nice guy, you know the ropes, and even if you can be a little hasty with decisions, most girls think of you as a total catch. Your hastiness comes off as spontaneity most of the time anyhow, making you especially popular in your circle of friends, too.

Your exact opposite:
The Billy Goat

Deliberate Brutal Sex Dreamer
You know not to make the typical Loverboy mistake of choosing someone who appreciates your good humor and popularity, but who offers nothing in return. You belong with someone outgoing, independent, and creative. Otherwise, you’ll get bored. And then instead of surprising her with flowers or a practical joke, you’ll surprise her by leaving.


ALWAYS AVOID: The Nymph

CONSIDER: The Window Shopper, The Peach

i’m not really sure what to do with that, honestly. where do i find these nymphs, billy goats, peaches, and window shoppers? it’d be easier if everyone just had a name tag. or a tattoo. or even rfid tags, so you can just date by scanner.

perhaps more interesting was the test that juan took:

ISTJ - “Mastermind”. Introverted intellectual with a preference for finding certainty. A builder of systems and the applier of theoretical models. 2.1% of total population.
Free Jung Personality Test (similar to Myers-Briggs/MBTI)

while this is a quick and easy one-page mbti, i thought that it was interesting that i ended up ISTJ, whereas when i last took this over five years ago, i was pretty squarely INTP/INTJ. here i’m clearly more J=judging, but even more interestingly is that i’m now S=sensing instead of squarely N=intuiting. which means that either the test is wonky, or that i’m actually starting to listen to people. which maybe makes sense, seeing as i’ve been in sales for the past five years, and it’s hard to be in sales if you don’t listen to people.

correction: it’s hard to be successful in sales if you don’t listen to people.

I usually hate those stupid tests. But I’m procrastinating at work, and this one wasn’t so bad.

Especially because it determined that I am…The Maid of Honor, a Deliberate Gentle Love Master (DGLMf).

“Appreciated for your kindness and envied for all your experience, you are The Maid of Honor. Charismatic, affectionate, and terrific in relationships, you are what many guys would call a “perfect catch”—and you probably have many admirers, each wishing to capture your long-term love. You’re careful, extra careful, because the last thing you want is to hurt anyone. Especially some poor boy whose only crime was liking you.

Your exact opposite:
Half-cocked — Random Brutal Sex Dreamer

We’ve deduced you’re fully capable of a dirty fling, but you do feel that post-coital attachment after hooking up. So, conscientious person that you are, you do your best to reserve physical affection for those you respect…so you can respect yourself.

Your biggest negative is the byproduct of your careful nature: indecision. You’re just as slow rejecting someone as you are accepting them.”


Sounds about right. W00t!
