Nah, I'm sticking with "You're wrong!".  It's so much more succinct. 

Thank you for showing your ignorance. Nothing to be proud of.

Speaking of ignorance, the use of emoticons is not simply an involuntary spasm on my part.

Emoticons to me mean: don't take things I say TOO seriously, and I'm mostly mocking myself. Lighten up, and yes, focus on the ideas, not on trying to change personalities or taking personal offense over the fact that others might see things differently.

Yes, I am more in the INFJ/ISFP direction than you, Someguy, though I am actually T as most people who know me can testify. And not necessarily always in a good way, that T of mine. But it's close on the scale in my case. But yes, I am often "wrong" too from the point of view of some EST people.

But types can't be taken too seriously. Many people come out as certain types on the test, and yet have qualities and abilities that seem the opposite. So an emoticon is a good way of saying, so what; it's only a category; generation types, MBTI types, even astrology types, and philosophy types are fun, but don't take them too seriously as applying rigidly.

I generally end up being either ENTP or INTP, depending on how I answer one or two questions, and very rarely anything else.  But I don't set much stock in it.  I am baffled how on Earth that was taken seriously, particularly when I was going out of my way to lampshade it.  But I remember being baffled by her reading comprehension when she first showed up, too.  Not too worried about it.

Yeah, I don't think people should get too wrapped up in anything that happens on a message board, and getting too emotional about it is probably a good sign that you need a break.  That's what I did, at least.

That being said, you're still wrong, Eric.  I want you to know that.
