I did a personality test of sorts, and learned I'm an odd duck. The test is at MindTime, and is trivially easy to complete.

Here's what it told me:

interpreting my mind time map

It's odd that someone can be at once forward-looking and backward-looking, and somehow disinterested in the now. Not very Jedi of me!

Maybe "odd duck" is a bit harsh. Maybe "rare bird"?

rand()m quote

It has always seemed strange to me...The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.

—John Steinbeck, Cannery Row
