      Fun fact: In German, the star signs use regular words:

      Ram, Bull, Twins, Crab, Lion, Virgin, Scales, Scorpion, Archer, Goat, Water man*, Fish

      *Yeah, that one didn’t really count as a regular words, I guess

      Nah, they’re both bogus, but while MBTI is somewhat less idiotic at face-value, I think it is actually worse because it sounds sciencey. At least most fans of astrology know it is silly. I’ve had employers use MBTI as part of on-boarding.

        Yeah I agree. Just pointing out the hypocrisy between people who believe in MBTI and make fun of astrology fans at the same time.
