Does it mitigate the effect if I tell you I'm an INTJ?
Some quotes about INTJs for you:
From
http://www.personalitypage.com/INTJ.html
"INTJs live in the world of ideas and strategic planning. They value intelligence, knowledge, and competence, and typically have high standards in these regards, which they continuously strive to fulfill. To a somewhat lesser extent, they have similar expectations of others."
"INTJs spend a lot of time inside their own minds, and may have little interest in the other people's thoughts or feelings."
"The INTJ's interest in dealing with the world is to make decisions, express judgments, and put everything that they encounter into an understandable and rational system. Consequently, they are quick to express judgments. Often they have very evolved intuitions, and are convinced that they are right about things. Unless they complement their intuitive understanding with a well-developed ability to express their insights, they may find themselves frequently misunderstood. In these cases, INTJs tend to blame misunderstandings on the limitations of the other party, rather than on their own difficulty in expressing themselves. This tendency may cause the INTJ to dismiss others input too quickly, and to become generally arrogant and elitist."
"INTJ Weaknesses ... Not naturally in tune with others feelings; may be insensitive at times..."
"Problem Areas:...May be unaware (and sometimes uncaring) of how they come across to others...May apply their judgment more often towards others, rather than towards themselves ...May take pride in their ability to be critical and find fault in people and things...May be intolerant of weaknesses in others ...May be cuttingly derisive and sarcastic towards others..."
So, you see, it's in my nature. I just can't help myself. Sorry.
