Well.

Apart from a bit of roleplaying with dude boy when we were young, I'd never considered myself a Gryffindor. As a house it always seemed, oh, too obvious, and I chalked it up to wanting to belong to the hero group and be able to roleplay through the main storylines. 

As the years went on I began looking into the other houses, because I felt that not everyone was cut out to be a hero (including myself), and that I had never been very brave, which is the cardinal characteristic for that house, unless one counts impulsive shit-stirring followed with guilt.

So, sure I'd fit great into Ravenclaw, given my background, but it was always a means to an end. Or Hufflepuff, because god knows I want, or need a hug, although I pitch my loyalties with too many factions and screw around with all of them. Or Slytherin, I guess, if to appeal to my fondness for grand plots and fits of selfishness, despite a lack of ambition beyond "Get money. Buy property. Get Internet. Get food.".

Damn. I posted about this a while ago.  I said,

Method 2: The DAYDverse reduction

It stated that one could determine one's house by identify what one believed to be worth sacrificing everything:
  • Oneself - personal causes, personal vendetta, etc.
  • People close to oneself - friends, family
  • The truth - finding it, sharing it, all with the scientific method
  • The greater good - an ideal, the vague idea of the many 
Sorting decision - Despite a distinct lack of ambition, Slytherin. Never Gryffindor. Not really Ravenclaw any more. Maybe a Hufflepuff. I shall err on the side of selfishness.

Derp. I don't even know what greater good there is. I'm not trying to make the world a better place. I am actively trying to change my effect middle name to "Switzerland" (as opposed to, oh, "Danger" or "Trouble"). I am confused.

Shouldn't make too much out of an online test, should I.

For reference, I am a reasonably happy INTP, or perhaps an ISTP. I used to think I was an INTJ, until I gave up on planning and herding people around.

It's really unusual how many people type as INTx.
