Overheard In the Kitchen

"I'm sorry. That wasn't covered in my personality profile."

My sister and I have been researching our Jung/Myers-Briggs personality types, which has lead to all sorts of discussions. She is an INFP (Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Perceiving) and I am an INFJ (Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging). My personality type tends to me more critical and control freak-ish but she has inherited a hefty dose of "I know my way is right because I've thought it through from every conceivable angle!!" from my father and his family.

I was mixing cake batter and she was sitting and watching me (a strange reversal of roles for us) and occasionally commenting. "Don't mix it too much or it will get tough. Go ahead and put the spatula in the sink and use the whisk instead. Remember to only pour half of the batter in the pan." I am not a patient person (although my personality profile says I most likely am). I never have been and I am fairly certain that I never will have the saint-like patience of my sister. "You are a very bad passenger," I informed her. She promptly left the room in amused frustration. "I'm sorry," She said, "That wasn't covered in my personality profile."
