In Reply to: Do you know about wings? I just thought it was interesting that you said you had a hard time paying attention to long, philosophical posts. (nt) posted by Emily on March 26, 2000 at 20:17:29:
I know of them...I'm pretty sure I'm a 4w5, at least, that's what I sound most like, and that's what I keep testing as...
In this case though I think it's real psychology winning out--if things tend to get too "deep" and somewhat wordy (not to put down Tiggy, some people express their views in different ways), I just can't focus on them too much... I start to get antsy. Notice how I break my messages into paragraphs?? I've noticed that when there aren't paragraph breaks--or, if there are few--my eyes start wandering all over the place...it happens in many other situations besides here...
NOT PUTTING DOWN TIGGY! I've been known to come up with a long post too...but there's a dif between actually READING and WRITING...
Anyway, I have nothing against deep stuff, I've been known to have a deep opinion now and then, I just can't express them very well without getting wordy myself. Thing is--instead of being articulate like Tiggy (she IS articulate, I just don't always have the attention span to follow it), I ramble and blather and repeat myself and end up not making much sense at all...kinda like I'm doing right here! ;)
But, anyway, I'm pretty sure I'm a 4w5...I just think my 5 decides to clunk out now and then. Either that or it's lazy.
