Apparently Unexpected: Knitting needles and Plasma cannons

I kept seeing all these friends on Facebook talking about the Meyers-Briggs personality test...which I had never actually taken.

I took some variation of it years ago, but I forgot what it said I was, so I decided, "What the heck! I'll take the Meyers-Briggs!"

I probably wouldn't have even bothered with it, but people kept posting things like this:

And I had no idea what the letters stood for. I didn't really want to ask somebody, but I kept seeing variations on the above chart. Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Trek, you name it! Finally, when someone put up a list of animals that fit the various letter combinations, I decided to find out what these magical jumbles of letters meant and why the heck people were putting them everywhere.

Apparently I'm a deer.

I honestly don't know how to feel about that. Or if I care. Anyway, I came out classified as an "ISFJ", or "Introverted, Sensing, Feeling, Judging". Also called "The Protector", which I thought was kind of cool. A lot of the description was stuff I'd known about myself already, but I got an unusual list of fictional characters who share my personality type...and I think I know why I always liked them now.
