I f you were a biscuit, what sort of biscuit would you be? Think carefully. The answer you give — Hobnob, Bourbon, digestive or custard cream — could determine your future social, academic, professional and romantic prospects. We live in the age of the personality test. These range from the silly (which Wicked character are you?) to the quasi-scientific (which of the 16 Myers-Briggs types are you?) to the diagnostic (take our quick ADHD test to find out if you have it). ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is mainstream enough that most of us know what it stands for, but I have noticed an increasing trend for those my age (millennial) and younger to unleash a welter of random capitals. “I’m an ENTJ.” “I’m classic ENFP.” “It was never going to work with him. He’s an ESFP.” To which I can only reply: “EH?” If it’s not the 16 alphabetical permutations of the Myers-Briggs personality test, or their popular shorthands: “Commander”, “Campaigner”, “Entertainer”, etc, then it’s Personality Type A or Type B. Or a definitive declaration of introvert/extrovert. Or Empath, Hyper-Empath, Empowered Empath, Unaware Empath or Dark Empath (otherwise, a Covert Narcissist).GiriToday, an online marketplace fostering community and facilitating growth between local artisans and global audience, has reiterated its commitment to revolutionise e-commerce in Africa through innovative solutions.
