How To Read A Person + New Movie: Cloverfield

While I was crawling the "Series of Tubes" (Courtesy of Sen. Ted Stevens) I found a really cool article on Lifehacker about profiling people. I thought it was interesting so I followed the link to this site. It turns out its allot more than just profiling, it includes the hierarchy of actions and desire.
It goes from: Physical, Security, Sociality, Esteem, and finally Ethics (Ethics being the last thing we think about). It also talks about how people act and why they act this way.

Eg: "David is a guy, who enjoys being heavily sarcastic to the point that makes people feel bad. He enjoys destabilising people using stupid arguments. He does that because by making them feel less powerful, he tricks his Ego to think that he is on his way to achieve some form of social power and thus security. He compares himself with his ‘victims’ and says: “Hey, I am more powerful than him”. He has adopted that strategy through the years without knowing why: He just does it." (From Happy Brain Storming)

I thought about it, and these are my traits (Note: this took me a long time, so please read)

Chunking size: Whole picture
Relationship sort: Sameness
Sensing VS Intuition: Intuition
Black n’ White VS Continuum: Continuum
Optimist VS Pessimist: Cant decide
Focus sort: Screeners VS Non-Screeners: It depends
Why VS How: How
Process VS Static: Process
Associated VS Disassociated: Middle
Emotional Directional Sort: Feelings stay contained in where they came from
Emotional Intensity: In the middle, mostly calm
Direction Sort: Both
Adapting: I adapt well
Primary Interest: Information
Judging VS Perceiving: Perceiving
How do you strive to achieve a goal: Process
Emotional style: assertive
Responsibility: middle
Battery Rejuvenation: Very Introvert
Comparison sort: Qualitative
Knowledge sort: Theory
Completion: Non Closer
Temper to Instruction: Middle
Self Esteem: High middle
The way you feel time: Future %75 and present %25
Morality: Moderately strong

There, you (according to the article) know almost everything about my personality!


Almost forgot! I saw the move Cloverfield today.(I had to use this picture due to lack of a real one from the movie)

I have to say that the monster does not look like this. It has a smaller tail and more human-esque limbs. I would like to add that it had very Sin-Spawn (FF10) like things that drop from it and make you explode. Onto the review! Over all the movie was crappy, yes I said it, I am aware of the measures that paramount went to market this movies, but it wasnt worth it. Dont believe the hype! The effects were amazing, but thats about it. The plot could make you say "Whad you think of the plot?" "Wait what plot?". The story progression made sense, but the plot had no meaning. I would also like to add that no movie will ever be good by using the "Blair Witch" effect.

Was it long enough?
