If I get multiple results from taking a questionnaire in the same 20 minutes, I would not consider it reliable.

Unless the questions are changing, it's weird that you'd get different results regardless of how reliable it is.

The title "Breakfast at Tiffany's" come from Holly Golightly's fantasy of having breakfast at Tiffany's even though it's a jewelry store, not a restaurant. 
Online tests are different than real studies.

Criticism of Myers-Briggs is generally very misogynistic in nature: back in the 1940s, the idea of two women coming up with psychological theories was not tolerated. Fact is, there's a lot of real research to back up their work.
Please stop with the mansplaining defence. The ‘actual health professional’ in question is Lemon Merchant.

watching utubes on come alongs and tie down straps... when a tie down strap has to traverse open air you need to have the strap corkscrew 1 time rather than having the strap 'straight' like you were using a seat belt. IE, the top of the strap touching the cargo becomes the bottom of the strap entering the ratcheting mechanism. The reason being wind will create a resonance on the strap making wear marks where the strap contacts the cargo. Having the strap make 1 turn cuts down on the strap being buffeted by the air as you drive down the road.

What? No. It's criticized because it's not based on factor analysis and because the Barnum effect. Actual psychologists generally use Five Factor.I did, my real therapist, who I trust way more than a fake one on the internet

No, you see, the Five Factor wasn't made by women (even though Wikipedia says one of the four researchers who reviewed it in the 1980s was a woman). So it's clearly wrong and misogynistic! Something like that.

What is it called when a woman mansplains to a woman?

That's an insult to astrology. At least I can learn about the effects on my life-force when Ophiucus is occluded by Mars when in the Sixth House on my own time; as opposed to all the time spent in school on those ridiculous tests.

I had to took one for some weird class in community college. I couldn't understand half the questions because they were so vague.

I think so?
I went through enough in-school counseling I might be confusing counseling/learning aptitude tests with actual school. I'm 99% sure I took it as part of an elective "Note Taking and Study Habits" in HS.
