I think this is the first time ever I agree with you on something.

I hate the Myers-Briggs and I do believe it's comparable to horoscopes: we see what we want and we use it as a way to mostly flatter ourselves.

Another problem I feel is rampant with all these "tests" is that they only measure a person's perception of oneself which may not be accurate at all. I've mentioned here my roommate who thinks she is introspective yet seems more to me to be extroverted, but cripplingly insecure and shy. The first trait drives people away (especially as she covers it with a thick veneer of naive arrogance) and the second makes it hard for her to meet people to replace those she drives away. For instance this New Year's she told me she had decided "we needed to go out once a week [together]" to help her meet people. That doesn't seem like the kind of resolution an introvert would make, at least not if they are comfortable with their introversion.

The other thing I don't like about tests like this is they tend to make people perceive their tendencies as unchangeable facts, which then reinforces those tendencies. For instance, you take a test, it says you're an introvert, you then accept the "truth" that you are an introvert (instead of, again for example, shy) and instead of trying to change or grow past that shyness or other quiet tendency (assuming it's something you want to change) you then say "Well it's okay I'm like this. I'm An Introvert." It encourages people not to try to change things.

Supposedly, this is me (although I don't know if I'd fall in the I so much...I don't know...) I find this description overly flattering, as in, I can tell that I want to believe these things are true of me and therefore I do not trust that they are.

INTJs apply (often ruthlessly) the criterion "Does it work?" to everything from their own research efforts to the prevailing social norms. This in turn produces an unusual independence of mind, freeing the INTJ from the constraints of authority, convention, or sentiment for its own sake ... INTJs are known as the "Systems Builders" of the types, perhaps in part because they possess the unusual trait of combining imagination and reliability. Whatever system an INTJ happens to be working on is for them the equivalent of a moral cause to an INFJ; both perfectionism and disregard for authority come into play. Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel ... This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals ... Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense.
