SP, How Are You NOT Like Your Type Description?

[Kleinheiko]

I can be rather clumsy when I'm not paying attention to myself. but this could be related to a part of my type. I'm clumsy sometimes because I'm using extroverted sensing, but not sensing where I am in space, just everything else. Ti also plays into this when I'm doing something, and then suddenly have a great idea that I want to think about which causes an all stop on everything externally. If I'm holding something at a time like this, it can slip from my numb fingers easily enough.

The most complicated stuff I paint is stick men.

I have the reflexes of a sloth.

I walk around while lost in a fantasy world (and not tuned in to my surroundings).

I have devoured more (fiction) literature than anyone I know. My dream (since the age of 6) is to be locked, with a steady food supply, inside the biggest Borders I know.

I have no interest in engineering. At the moment.

I don't think the descriptions emphasize a thirst for knowledge nearly enough. I want to see everything, experience everything, and know everything, or at least keep working at it until I die. And by this I mean I want to know actual facts, not theories some scientist or prophet comes up with.

I agree. I've spent many hours looking at all sorts of things on wikipedia and other sites, even if they have nothing to do with anything important. Ex: I spent probably 10 hours looking at stuff about the interstates, and road systems. That was all started by me wanting to know about the speed limit/lack of one in Montana.

I have done that exact same thing.

So have I...

Someday I'll cruise the Autobahn. Oh yeah, and I want to drive in India, that would be crazy. And the Bolivian Death Road. And so on. I'm like my type description in that way.

INFP much?

I'm really clumsy too. Like falling-down-stairs-and-breaking-glasses clumsy. Physical sports (especially team sports) were always a weakness in school for me.

I'm in the majority of the population who's happy with not knowing how things (electronic and otherwise) work as long as they work.

I have a horrible personal memory and often confuse it with dreams/ daydreams.

I do love to read. I want to get on Jeopardy one day, but I know I'll probably never learn enough about classical music/ opera/ medievel European wars for it to happen. (I killed in the "Freaks and Geeks alums" category a few days ago though.)

I don't know how to manipulate people or get them involved in any schemes at all.

[Kayin]

I'm nothing like the description and everything like description, I'm too spread out to really be a determined category...

As I also believed.

Every test I do though brands me as an ISFP with a strong S at that. I do partially identify with the INFP temperament too though.
