The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Enthusiastic, idealistic and creative. Able to do almost anything that interests them. Great people skills. Need to live life in accordance with their inner values. Excited by new ideas, but bored with details. Open-minded and flexible, with a broad range of interests and abilities.

Even though I hated most of the questions and didn't really like either choice they gave me.
I would love to be thoroughly psychoanalyzed by a skilled professional just to see what they come up with.
Same here. Would be interesting.
I'm especially curious if anything in my personality could be considered a disorder at this point. I'm fairly successful in life despite a lot of background shit, and most of the problems in my life stem from circumstances rather than anything on my part.
I wonder what they would say about my refusal to drink.
They'll ask me all their standard questions, give me a diagnosis, and not question for a second that they might be wrong or maybe I don't fit into the DSM. They have a tendency to treat the DSM like a Bible, that's been my experience.
Psychologists, on the other hand, love to probe at me and listen to me talk and talk and they're just like "fascinating" and don't provide that much that is useful.
Of the two, I've found psychiatrists to be both more helpful and more damaging.
Serious and quiet, interested in security and peaceful living. Extremely thorough, responsible and dependable. Well-developed powers of concentration. Usually interested in supporting and promoting traditions and establishments. Well-organized and hard working, they work steadily towards identified goals. They can usually accomplish any task once they have set their mind to it.

Independent, original, analytical and determined. Have an exceptional ability to turn theories into solid plans of action. Highly value knowledge, competence and structure.

Frats, unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, create environments that tend to, though not always are, homophobic, aggressive/violent, alcohol abusive and degrading to and exploitative of women.

You got almost precisely what a friend of mine did. She's going into design, she thought the "excited by new ideas, but bored by details" thing was spot on.

Friendly, adaptable, action-oriented. 'Doers' who are focused on immediate results. Living in the here-and-now, they're risk-takers who live fast-paced lifestyles. Impatient with long explanations. Extremely loyal to their peers, but not usually respectful of laws and rules if they get in the way of getting things done. Great people skills.
I ended up with this because I canceled out the introvert/extrovert thing, as usual, on these sorts of tests.
When I think of Rotary Club, I don't think college kids.
When I think of Rotary Club, I have to remind myself that the sweet club I wish it was is not what it is and never will be. The Masons are creepy though. Promise Keepers, too.

How strange.
They are silly.
Classic indeed.

Loan sharks?
What are your thoughts on Local Associations/Clubs or Secret Societies?
Gosh.
Also, you are a chatty lot tonight. Who spiked the punch bowl with talk powder?
I enjoy the concept, but I think in practice I'd get really bored halfway in.
Not really.
Rotary Club: The one place for all your rotational needs!

I am the most boring person ever.
They are ill-represented by their members. Which is supposed to be a defense, apparently.
I find those things hilarious.

I too am curious.
They usually just indicate that I am a creative person well dur.
Ronaldo: That seems pretty accurate for me as well.
Depends on your reasons. What are they?

This one is really bad.
