Smells a little bit like nihilism, which is fine, just not my cuppa.
I am jumping in, even if this is not particulary towards me.

For me it's not a case of good or bad, personalities are so much complex.

For me it's like, energetic, creative, critical (in the thinking way, not as in negative), outgoing, quiet...that sort of thing. Those tendencies can manifest in all sorts of directions, but some basic personality traits seem inborn. It's not a judgment so much as an observation.

this one is musical, that one is an athlete, another is nurturing.
